He is the Spirit of life, both now and hereafter (Gal. 6:8; I Cor. 15:45); and the Spirit of assurance, the guarantee of the new life, whereby man obtains confidence towards God and courage in the face of the world's evil (II Cor. 1:22; Rom. 5:5, 8:16, 23; Eph. 1:13, 4:30). Man, therefore, as the dwelling-place of the Spirit, is the inalienable possession of God (I Cor. 3:16, 17, 6:19). (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who is devoid of the power to forgive, is devoid of the power to love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47910]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who is devoid of the power to forgive, is devoid of the power to love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There can be no transforming of darkness into light andof apathy into movement without emotion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22168]]></link><description><![CDATA[There can be no transforming of darkness into light andof apathy into movement without emotion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus Christ suffered and died to sanctify death and suffering; he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7504]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus Christ suffered and died to sanctify death and suffering; he has been all that was great, and all that was abject, in order to sanctify in himself all things except sin, and to be the model of every condition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The governor has put her finger directly on the most critical needs in Puget Sound with this initiative.
