I didn’t say the miracle was a mass. I said it let them speak in local languages. They spoke to crowds, wrote letters (see Paul) and held rituals in people’s houses. Not all of these activities were masses as you try to spin your way out of a bad position. . The rituals with the eucharist ARE the foundation for the mass later standardized by the church.

The mass is a rite and you said it includes the eucharist. I didn’t disagree. I posted evidence that the eucharist was part of the christian rites, when they went into people’s houses and preached the gospel. Justin even uses the word eucharist in his letter to the emperor to explain the Christian rituals. And Pull admonished them to make sure everyone has a chance for bread as Jesus showed them

THAT made it a mass by your own definition.

You ignore the historical evidence because you want the latin mass so much you are blinded by facts. Just admit the early mass was not in Latin. How hard is that for you. You can’t possibly hang onto the a lie, our mistake, in the face of overwhelming evidence. Once youkinow the truth to continue with falsehoods is a lie.

WHAT?

Check the thread; I never said the early Mass was in latin. The Church eventually standardized on latin. However, Pentecost had nothing to do with Mass, and your unattributed cut/paste job does nothing to support such an assertion.
