When the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost what did he come as?

The Holy Spirit came at Pentecost as tongues of fire, resting on each of the apostles. This event empowered them to speak in different languages and proclaim the message of Jesus to people from various nations gathered in Jerusalem.


What would have happened to the Church if the Holy Spirit had not come to the apostles on the Day of the Pentecost?

A:The Holy Spirit is reported in Acts 2:1-4 as coming to the apostles some forty days after the Resurrection of Jesus, on the Day of Pentecost, as tongues of flame. A little-known account in John's Gospel (John 20:22) also has the disciples receiving the Holy Spirit when Jesus breathed on them, on the same day as the Resurrection. Had the author of Acts not reported the disciples receiving the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, no doubt the parallel account in John's Gospel would have received greater prominence, with the Church proceeding much as it did.


Did Thomas ever receive the Holy Spirit?

John's Gospel, which Elaine Pagels sees as containing an element of anti-Thomas narrative, has Thomas miss out on receiving the Holy Spirit. The Gospel says that Jesus met the disciples in an upper room in Jerusalem, with Thomas absent, and breathed on each of the disciples and gave them the Holy Spirit. He met the disciples again a few days later, when Jesus showed 'Doubting Thomas' his wounds, but did not give him the Holy Ghost. However, Acts of the Apostles was in a somewhat different tradition, in which the disciples clearly had not received the Holy Spirit before Jesus was taken up into heaven. In this story, all the disciples - Thomas included - received the Holy Spirit as tongues of fire on the day of Pentecost.
