Paul's count against the Law is that it was impotent through the flesh. Against this impotence Paul sets the ethical competence of the Spirit. "I can do anything in Him who makes me strong," (Phil. 4:13) he exclaims. For his friends in Asia he prays "that God may grant you, according to the wealth of His splendour, to be made strong with power through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your trust in Him." (Eph. 3:16-17) This is the antithesis of the dismal picture presented in Romans 7, and it comes, just as evidently as that, out of experience. Indeed, we may say that the thing above all which distinguished the early Christian community from its environment was the moral competence of its members. In order to maintain this we need not idealize unduly the early Christians. There were sins and scandals at Corinth and Ephesus, but it was impossible to miss the note of genuine power of renewal and recuperation -- the power of the simple person progressively to approximate to his moral ideals in spite of failures. The very fact that the term "Spirit" is used points to a sense of something essentially "supernatural" in such ethical attainments. For the primitive Christians the Spirit was manifested in what they regarded as miraculous. Paul does not whittle away the miraculous sense when he transfers it to the moral sphere. He concentrates attention on the moral miracle as something more wonderful far than any "speaking with tongues." So fully convinced is he of the new and miraculous nature of this moral power that he can regard the Christian as a "new creation." (II Cor. 5:17) This is not the old person at all: it is a "new man," "created in Christ Jesus for good deeds." (Eph. 2:10) (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where evil habits are once settled, they are more easily broken than mended. [Lat., Frangas enim, citius quam corrigas quae ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18531]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where evil habits are once settled, they are more easily broken than mended. [Lat., Frangas enim, citius quam corrigas quae in pravum induerunt.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No, Freedom has a thousand charms to show That slaves, howe'er contented, never know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16675]]></link><description><![CDATA[No, Freedom has a thousand charms to show That slaves, howe'er contented, never know.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a woman is sufficiently ambitious, determined and gifted - there is practically nothing she can't do ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4040]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a woman is sufficiently ambitious, determined and gifted - there is practically nothing she can't do]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How instinct varies in the grov'lling swine, Compar'd, half-reasoning elephant, with thine!  'Twixt that and reason what a nice ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22828]]></link><description><![CDATA[How instinct varies in the grov'lling swine, Compar'd, half-reasoning elephant, with thine!  'Twixt that and reason what a nice barrier!   Forever sep'rate, yet forever near!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We came out with a lot of energy in the third quarter and got a lot of buckets off our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32371]]></link><description><![CDATA[We came out with a lot of energy in the third quarter and got a lot of buckets off our defense.
