00:00And John bore witness, saying,
00:28I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and remaining on him.
00:36I didn't know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me,
00:43The one on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, that is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.
00:52The great gift that God the Father and Jesus Christ, his Son, give to the world and to the Church,
01:04It is the gift of the Holy Spirit, the gift of life.
01:11When the Scriptures speak to us of the Spirit, they are speaking to us of the breath of God.
01:17The Lord breathed into Adam's nostrils the Spirit of life.
01:25And since then, all humanity has enjoyed the life of God.
01:30But human beings can fall into discouragement, that is, lose the Spirit of God in our hearts.
01:42And Christ has come to bathe us with his Spirit, to strengthen our hearts,
01:51to breathe life into every word, into every deed of our lives.
01:59Because the Lord loves man so much that He has never left him alone.
02:04When He created Adam, He gave him the Spirit that gives life.
02:09By sending his Son Jesus Christ, he gives us the Holy Spirit.
02:15It not only gives us physical life, but it gives us life that lasts forever.
02:22That which only Jesus Christ can give.
02:26And that is why He baptizes with water and the Holy Spirit.
02:31How interesting that God never gives up what is ours to give us what is His.
02:39He baptizes us with water, that is, he allows us to experience what is very much our own, water.
02:47But at the same time, he doesn't want to leave us alone on this earthly level,
02:53but He wants to lead us to Him and that is why He gives us His Holy Spirit.
02:59This Spirit that recreates, this Spirit that gives full life,
03:05This Spirit that generates hope in the heart of every man.
03:09Quite rightly, when a person is discouraged,
03:14we say that she has lost her breath, that she is discouraged,
03:19because he does not have the joy of life, he does not have the joy of God's grace.
03:24Try it.
03:28Receive the Spirit of God as a gift for your life.
03:33And you'll see that you'll not only lead a peaceful and quiet life,
03:40full of serenity, full of harmony,
03:43but you will always look to the sky with hope.
03:46The Holy Spirit has come down from heaven and wants to take us to heaven.
03:53I invite you to enjoy this gift that the Father gives us together with the Son,
04:00with our Lord Jesus Christ.
04:03He baptizes with water and he baptizes with the Holy Spirit.
04:08Thanks be to God our Father and to Jesus Christ
04:12for the great gift for his entire church.
04:16Today you can be happy, today you can be content,
04:21Today you can aspire to eternity,
04:24because Christ has baptized you with water and the Holy Spirit.
04:28Thank you!
