Pentecost's Fire

Unlike Father Jack, Father Chris compared the Holy Spirit to real fire.  Father Jack's Holy Spirit worked quietly and unseeing.  Not Father Chris'.  His Holy Spirit is a loud blast.

Father Chris told the story of baking a roast.  He thought he saw a small flame in the oven, but he was told to ignore it.  Suddenly, that little flame burst into a smoky fire.

The fire department was called.  Nine trucks came.  East Boston is a congested area, so the fire spreading was a concern.  Lots of CO2 were used.  The stove was covered in it.

The roast was smothered in CO2 making it inedible.  Too bad.  Just like the tongues of Fire on Pentecost changed the disciples, the fire in the oven changed the roast.  Fire changes everything.
