Cult of the Holy Spirit

Also known as: The Cult of the Empire of the Holy Spirit. In Portuguese, it’s called Culto do Divino Espirito Santo.

This is a religious sub-culture, inspired by Christian millenarian mystics. It’s associated with Azorean Catholic identity. It consists of iconography, architecture, & religious practices that have continued, in many communities of the archipelago, as well as the broader Portuguese diaspora.

Beyond the Azores, the Cult of the Holy Spirit is alive in parts of Brazil (where it was established 3 centuries ago) & in pockets of Portuguese settlers in North America.

Devotion to the Holy Spirit is a part of classical Catholic dogma & is the inspiration of several Catholic religious institutes, including the Spiritans. The Spiritans, a.k.a. the Congregation of the Holy Spirit, is a religious congregation for men in the Catholic Church. Members are often known as Holy Ghost Fathers or, in continental Europe & the Anglosphere, as Spiritans, & members use the postnominals “CSSp.”

The primary inspiration for this unique devotion comes from the writings of the medieval monk Joachim of Fiore. Joachim of Fiore was a millenarian prophet who, based on his interpretation of the Book of Revelation, put forth that the history of the world into 3 distinct ages:

• The Age of the Father (Old Testament): Characterized by law, fear, & servitude.
• The Age of the Son (New Testament/The Church): Characterized by grace, faith, & discipline.
• The Age of the Holy Spirit: A coming “3rd Age” of history that Joachim predicted would start around 1260. This age would be characterized by universal love, spiritual understanding, & a society governed by the Holy Spirit. This leads to an “eternal Gospel” & the spiritual governance of the world, in which Orthodox Christians & Jews would re-unite with Catholics in 1 faith.

These “theories” became associated with the Fraticelli sub-group of the Franciscan Order, & were later condemned by Pope Alexander IV in 1256. This was after a so-called scandal of the Eternal Evangel caused by Gerardo of Borgo San Donnino.

While Joachim’s doctrines were suppressed by the mainstream Church, they experienced a significant revival 2 centuries later in the Azores Islands (the Portuguese archipelago in the mid-Atlantic). Franciscan spiritualists, who helped colonize the islands, heavily influenced the local religious practices, bringing traditions that were being extinguished on the mainland.

Starting between 1356-1360, there was a rebirth of these doctrines in the Azores that persisted until today. The origins of the modern celebrations can be traced back to Queen Elizabeth of Portugal (St. Elizabeth of Aragon).

In the early 14th century Queen Elizabeth is believed to have introduced the 1st celebration of the Imperio do Divino Espirito Santo (Empire of the Holy Spirit). This is likely influenced by Franciscan spiritualists. It became a major tradition in the Azores.

The main center of devotion was in the city of Tomar. Also known in English as Thomar. This is also the location of the priory of the Order of Christ, which is charged with the spirituality of newly discovered lands (including the Azores).

From there, the “cult” spread in Portugal, such as Aldeia Galega, Alenquer, Sintra, Tomar & Lisbon. It later came with Portuguese during their Atlantic discoveries.

The existence of the Irmandades do Divino Espirito Santo (In English: Brotherhoods of the Divine Holy Spirit) was 1st noted in the 16th century. The 1st hospital built in the Azores (1498), under the Santa Casa da Misericordia of Angra, got its current name, the Hospital do Santo Espirito. The distribution of food (meats, bread, milk) was already an important part of the charity common in the middle of the 16th century.

With Azorean emigration, the cult was transplanted to Brazil, where by the end of the 18th century there existed feast days in Rio de Janeiro, in Bahia, & other places where Azorean immigrants settled. Such as Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul, & Pernambuco.

In the 19th century, the traditions spread to Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Hawaii, Connecticut, & California in the United States. As well as Ontario, Quebec, & British Columbia in Canada.

The Feast of the Empire of the Divine Holy Spirit was also celebrated on board of the nausea on their way to Brazil & to India, during the 16th century.

The “cult” is known for its peculiar characteristics that set it apart from classical Catholics dogma & has been a powerful unifying force for the Azorean population:

• Autonomy from the Church: The cult is largely independent of the formal Church organization. Clergy aren’t needed to participate in the central practices.
• Charity & Solidarity: A core practice is the distribution of alms (esmolas). Traditionally, these included meat, soup, & bread, often called the Sopas do Espirito Santo (Soups of the Holy Spirit).
• The Imperio: This term refers to the festival itself, often celebrated around Pentecost & the small, crowned structure (or “chapel”) where the crown, scepter, & banner of the Holy Spirit are kept during the feasting period. The Crown of the Holy Spirit is a central piece of iconography.
• Brotherhoods (Irmandades): The organizational nucleus of the cult is the Irmandade, or Brotherhood of the Divine Holy Spirit. Members are considered equal.
• Vengeful Spirit: There’s a belief is that the Holy Spirit is vengeful (O Divino Espirito Santo e vingativo). This shows the importance of keeping holy vows/promises to God & avoiding offenses.

The rituals of the cult include different objects, that are symbolic, that are usually integrated during ceremonies. The objects include:

• Crown, Scepter, & Orb: These are the 3 most important symbols of the Imperio. These 3 take a central place during celebrations. The crown is of an imperial design, in silver. Normally, the crown has 4 arms that meet at the top with a golden orb surmounted by the dove of the Holy Spirit. Each crown comes with a silver scepter, again, surmounted with the dove of the Holy Spirit. The crowns & scepters are decorated with ribbons of white, & mounted on a silver plate with a tall rest. The size of the crown varies. In general, each irmandade may have 1 large & 2 smaller crowns, used to represent the Imperio of the Holy Spirit. In addition to being used in crowning ceremonies, it’s considered to transport the crown or let it stay in your home. This happens routinely with the brotherhood. Throughout the years, the crown will circulate, remaining in a place of honor in a household, where nightly prayers would happen.
• Flag: The pennant of brilliant red color, is a double-sided quadrangular dimension (5 palms on the side), knitted with a relief of the white dove of the Holy Spirit & rays of gold & white radiating from its center. The flagstaff, made of wood, is 2 meters (or 6ft. 6in.) in height (Some may be shorter or taller), surmounted with the dove of the Holy Spirit in tin or silver. The flag will accompany the crown & is always present in the liturgical ceremonies & crowning. It’s an honor to be chosen to carry the flag during the ceremonial cortege. (A cortege is a solemn procession, especially during a funeral.) A smaller is usually raised near the location of the crown, wherever it stays. It’s common to see white flags lines the squares during the ceremonies.
• Hymn: The Hino do Espirito Santo (Hymn of the Holy Spirit), composed at the end of the 19th century, is used by the bands & sung during the crowning ceremonies. Although primarily used in these ceremonies, some of its chords have been inserted into the Hymn of the Azores (the regional national anthem).
• Mace & Ribbon: These were inspired by the ceremonial maces carried traditionally by municipal judges or officials, the ceremony & length. Sometimes include a base for a candle, or surmounted with a tin or silver dove. During the cortege, the mace-bearers surround the crown-bearer. In some cases, the mace is joined together to form a rectangle, & the crown-bearer walks within the space. In some irmandades an extra mace (sometimes painted in white) will be provided to an individual who will be responsible for maintaining the procession in good order. It’s occasionally, referred colloquially as the “enxota porcos” (pig incentive). The organization would normally select people who needed a position of honor: mostly young people.
• Folioes do Divino: A small group of about 5 musicians that sing hymns. Accompanied by drum, cymbal, & tambourine, who visit the homes of the brotherhood. They’re also included in the transference of the crown, at the collection of donations, during the procession, the rituals, & the distribution of offerings.

On the inland of Santa Maria, as well as the area of Beira on Sao Jorge, the folioes are part of more complex rituals that have disappeared from other islands, involving the liturgy of the Holy Spirit.

Cult of the Supreme Being

Also known as (in French): Culte de l’Etre supreme. This cult was a form of Deism established by Maximilien Robespierre during the French Revolution.

This was supposed to be the intended state religion of France & a replacement for its rival, the Cult of Reason & also a replacement for Roman Catholicism. It went unsupported after the fall of Robespierre. This cult, along with the Cult of Reason, was officially banned by First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802.

The French Revolution led to many radical changes in France. One of the most fundamental changes was the official rejection of religion.

The 1st new major organized school of thought came out under the umbrella term: the Cult of Reason. The Cult of Reason purified a mix of mainly atheistic views into an anthropocentric philosophy. Anthropocentric is another word for Human Supremacy or Human Exceptionism. No gods were worshipped, at all, in the Cult of Reason.

The straight-up rejection of any or all godhead horrified Robespierre. He wasn’t a fan of Catholicism, but he had a special distain for atheism. He thought that a belief in a supreme being was important for social order. He’d quote Voltaire: “If God didn’t exist, it would be necessary to invent Him.”

In late 1793, Robespierre gave a fiery denunciation of the Cult of Reason & its advocates. He then gave his own vision for a proper Revolutionary religion. As 1 does. Devised entirely, almost, by Robespierre, the Cult of the Supreme Being was authorized by the National Convention on May 7, 1794 as the civic religion of France.

France, as of 2025, doesn’t have an official state religion. This was established by a 1905 law that bans the state government from funding, or recognizing any religion.

On May 7, 1794, the National Convention established the Worship of the Supreme Being. The opening articles of the Decree Establishing the Worship of the Supreme Being of the 18th Floreal of the Year II (Floreal was the 8th month of the French Republic calendar.) declared: 1) The French People recognize the existence of the Supreme Being & the Immortality of the Soul. 2) They declare that the best service of the Supreme Being is the practice of man’s duties. 3) They set among the most important of these duties the detestation of bad faith & traitors by caring for the unfortunate, respecting the weak, defending the oppressed, doing unto others all the good one can, & not being unjust towards anyone.

Robespierre dedicated festivals to the Supreme Being, to Truth, Justice, (& the American way…we’ll show ourselves out…), Modesty, Friendship, Frugality, Fidelity, Immortality, Misfortune, etc. The Cult of the Supreme Being was based on the creed of the Savoy chaplain that Jean-Jacques Rousseau had outlined in Book IV of Emile. Emile (or On Education) is a treatise on the nature of education & on the nature of man, written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who considered it to be the “best & most important” of all his writings.

To start off the new state religion, Robespierre declared that 20 Prairial Year II (June 8, 1797, also the Christian holiday of Pentecost.) would be a national celebration of the Supreme Being & future republican holidays were to be held every 10th day – the days of rest (decadi) in the new French Republican Calendar.

The Cult of the Supreme Being & its festival may have contributed to the Thermidorian Reaction & the downfall of Robespierre. With Robespierre’s death at the guillotine on July 28, 1794, the cult lost all official sanctions & disappeared from public view. It was officially banned by Napoleon on April 8, 1802 with his Law on Cults of 18 Germinal, Year X.

When the Church Came Alive

Thru the Bible in a Year

Scripture Reading: Acts 1–3

The book of Acts opens like the sunrise after a long night. The disciples, still raw from the loss and wonder of the Resurrection, are gathered in quiet expectation. Jesus has ascended, promising that the Holy Spirit would soon come. Luke, the physician-historian who wrote both the Gospel of Luke and Acts, continues the story for his friend Theophilus—and for us. What unfolds is not just history but the birth of the living Church, animated by the Spirit and sustained by obedience.

Acts bridges the gospels and the epistles—it shows us what happens when belief turns into boldness. This “second volume” of Luke’s account moves from the works of Christ to the works of His Spirit through His followers. As we read Acts 1–3, we see three movements: the Ascension and preparation (chapter 1), the arrival of the Spirit (chapter 2), and the demonstration of divine power (chapter 3). Each shows us what it means to live as a Spirit-filled people in a skeptical world.

Acts 1 — The Prelude to Power

The first chapter of Acts feels like the calm before a holy storm. Jesus gathers His followers for the final time and speaks of the Kingdom of God. His message before the Ascension centers on waiting—not the passive kind, but the expectant, prayerful kind that anticipates the fulfillment of God’s promise. He reminds them that the Holy Spirit will soon come upon them and that they will be His witnesses “in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8).

Then comes the breathtaking moment: “He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight.” Two angels appear, reassuring them that this same Jesus will one day return. The message is clear: His departure was not abandonment—it was preparation for empowerment.

Back in Jerusalem, the disciples obey His command to wait. In an upper room filled with prayer, they gather—men and women, apostles and other believers—united in devotion. Even in the waiting, God is shaping His Church. They fill Judas’s vacant place by selecting Matthias, signifying restoration and readiness. The Church’s first act after the Ascension is obedience and prayer—an example for all who would later call themselves followers of Christ.

In our own lives, we too must learn to wait for God’s timing. His promises do not fail, but they unfold according to His divine schedule. Sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is stay still and pray.

Acts 2 — The Power of Pentecost

If Acts 1 was the prelude, Acts 2 is the overture. On the day of Pentecost, fifty days after Passover, heaven touches earth. The sound of a rushing wind fills the house, and tongues of fire rest on each believer. The Holy Spirit descends, not as an abstract idea, but as a living, transforming presence. They begin to speak in other languages, proclaiming the mighty works of God to people from every nation gathered in Jerusalem.

The scene is chaotic, miraculous, and deeply symbolic. The confusion of Babel is being reversed—what was once divided by language is now united by the Spirit. Some marvel; others mock. But Peter, once fearful, now stands firm. Filled with the Holy Spirit, he preaches his first sermon. He begins by defending the disciples, declaring that they are not drunk but filled with the Spirit of God, fulfilling the prophecy of Joel: “I will pour out my Spirit on all people.”

Peter then moves from defense to declaration. His sermon centers on Jesus—the crucified and risen Messiah. He confronts his listeners with the truth: “You crucified Him, but God raised Him from the dead.” Yet this is not condemnation; it is invitation. When the crowd asks, “What shall we do?” Peter replies, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins.”

That day, three thousand souls are saved. The Church is born in a blaze of Spirit-fire. And their new life is marked by devotion, generosity, and community. They gather to learn from the apostles’ teaching, to break bread, to pray, and to share what they have so that none would be in need. This is not religious routine—it is the heartbeat of Spirit-filled fellowship.

Every time we open Acts 2, we are reminded that revival begins with readiness, obedience, and prayer. The Spirit still moves in those who make room for Him. The same wind that filled that upper room can fill our hearts today.

Acts 3 — Power at the Gate

The story continues with Peter and John going up to the Temple for prayer. There, at the Beautiful Gate, lies a man lame from birth—a beggar hoping for coins. Instead, he receives Christ. Peter looks at him and says, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.”

Immediately, strength surges through the man’s legs. He stands, walks, and begins leaping and praising God. The miracle draws a crowd, and Peter seizes the moment—not to glorify himself, but to exalt Jesus. He reminds the people that it was not by human power or piety that the man was healed, but by faith in the name of Christ. He points to their part in the crucifixion but also to the mercy of God: “Repent and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.”

This healing at the Temple gate is more than a miracle; it is a message. It shows that the same Jesus who walked the dusty roads of Galilee is still at work through His followers. The Church is now His hands and His heart in the world.

Living the Acts Story Today

As we read these chapters, we are not just spectators—we are participants. The same Spirit who filled those believers still fills the Church today. We may not hear the rushing wind or see tongues of fire, but when the Word of God moves through a willing heart, the same power is present.

Luke’s record of these first days reminds us that the Church is not a building or an institution—it is a Spirit-filled people on mission. The Ascension teaches us to look upward in hope; Pentecost teaches us to live outward in power; and the healing at the Temple reminds us to walk forward in faith.

The early believers’ devotion, generosity, and courage call us back to simplicity. They did not rely on strategy or spectacle but on prayer and obedience. Their strength came not from numbers but from nearness to Christ. When the Spirit moves, ordinary people do extraordinary things.

A Blessing for Your Journey

May you walk through this portion of Acts with the same expectancy that filled that upper room. May you wait on God’s timing, welcome the Holy Spirit’s leading, and witness His power in your life. The same Jesus who ascended in glory now reigns in your heart by His Spirit.

Thank you for your commitment to journey through God’s Word. Every chapter, every verse, and every moment spent in Scripture is part of God’s refining work in you. Remember—His Word will not return void but will accomplish all that He desires (Isaiah 55:11).

Peter wasn’t explaining God.
He was setting people on fire.

That’s what truth does sometimes.
Even when it’s messy.
Even when it doesn’t convince.
It moves you.

And that might be enough.
