But it is spiritual in so far as it now represents a spiritual essence, but must gradually be realized in human coexistence in the social structure that is emerging during the Jupiter, Venus, Vulcan period, where the Holy Spirit is embodied, not now in an individual human being, but in all humanity, in the configuration of society. But it is only at the beginning. However, the Gnostics were the ones who could best understand that something that is only spiritual does not intervene in the material. Therefore, the God of the Gnostics was basically the closest thing to the Holy Spirit. But this Christianity, which wanted to be transferred to earth, which did not want the spirit to be lost to Lucifer, to be seen only as something spiritual in it, this Christianity now also had to define faith in the spirit as something that was connected to the material: I believe in the Holy Spirit, in the Holy Church. — That is now in the Apostolicum, that is, the church as a great physical body of the Holy Spirit. This Christianity was not allowed to regard life in the spirit as something merely inward either, but had to have realized the spirit outwardly through the remission of sins, in that the Church itself took over the ministry of the remission of sins and, in addition, the doctrine of the resurrection of the flesh: “I believe in the Holy Ghost, in the Holy Church, in the remission of sins, in the resurrection of the flesh.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Second Lecture","site_heading":"Bridging Clairvoyance and Reason: The Trinity's Emergence","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Aber er ist ein Spirituelles insofern, als er zwar jetzt ein Spirituelles darstellt, aber sich allmählich verwirklichen muß im menschlichen Zusammenleben in dem sozialen Gebilde, das während der Jupiter-, Venus-, Vulkanzeit entsteht, wo der Heilige Geist sich verkörpert, jetzt nicht in einem einzelnen Menschen, sondern in der ganzen Menschheit, in der Konfiguration der Gesellschaft. Aber er ist jetzt erst im Anfang. Doch die Gnostiker konnten am ehesten verstehen, daß etwas nur spirituelles Dasein hat, nicht in das Materielle eingreift. Daher lag im Grunde genommen dem Gott der Gnostiker der Heilige Geist am allernächsten. Dies Christentum aber, das sich auf die Erde versetzen wollte, das nicht wollte, daß man den Geist verluziferisiert, in ihm nur etwas Spintuelles sieht, dies Christentum mußte jetzt auch den Glauben an den Geist festlegen als etwas, was mit dem Materiellen zusammenhängt: Ich glaube an den Heiligen Geist, an die heilige Kirche. — Das ist jetzt im Apostolikum darin, das heißt: die Kirche als ein großer physischer Leib des Heiligen Geistes. Dieses Christentum durfte auch nicht das Leben im Geiste als etwas bloß Innerliches betrachten, sondern mußte den Geist äußerlich realisiert haben durch die Sündenvergebung, indem die Kirche selber das Amt der Sündenvergebung und außerdem die Lehre von der fleischlichen Auferstehung übernahm: Ich glaube an den Heiligen Geist, an die heilige Kirche, an die Sündenvergebung, an des Fleisches Auferstehung.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":242,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/165/1916-01-16/p031"}],"english":["GA 165/1916-01-16/p031"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":242,"en_words":275,"ratio":1.14,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","anchors","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":9551,"original_word_count":9343,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2025","book_title":"The Conceptual World and Its Relationship to Reality","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA165/English/SOL2025/19160116p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
