Homily of Pentecost: 'Division is the devil, but the Spirit is able to solve these problems' Pope Francis: "In the face of the evil of discord, our efforts to build harmony are not enough" The Holy Spirit was given "for a specific purpose: to forgive sins, that is, to reconcile souls, to harmonize hearts torn by evil, shattered by wounds, broken by feelings of guilt" With the Spirit, instead, "faith is life, the love of the Lord conquers us and hope is reborn"
