The first three gifts of the Spirit which God had set in the Church were apostles, prophets, and teachers, in addition to which the whole Church had a gift of government (I Cor. 12:4, 28). The decisions of the first council of the Church were first of all decrees of the Spirit (Acts 15:28). Paul had preached and created churches by the power of the Spirit (I Cor. 2:4; 1 Thess. 1:5,6; Gal. 3:2). In one Spirit were all believers baptized into one body (I Cor. 12:13: cf. Phil. 1:27). The Spirit therefore dwells in the Church as the principle of its entire united and common life (Eph. 2:18, 22; cf. I Cor. 3:16).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If music and sweet poetry agree. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43430]]></link><description><![CDATA[If music and sweet poetry agree.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But this swift business I must uneasy make, lest too light winning  Make the prize light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51491]]></link><description><![CDATA[But this swift business I must uneasy make, lest too light winning  Make the prize light.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Victorious living does not mean freedom from temptation, nor does it mean freedom from mistakes.

We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence. Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake -- a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention. And therefore the action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask.
