The great creative acts and significant turning-points were recognized, either by the Church or by its historian, as determined by the Spirit. The Spirit confirmed and preserved the community from the outset, by the descent at Pentecost (Acts 2:4). The extension of the Gospel beyond Judea and the first mission to the Gentiles were commanded and approved by the Spirit (Acts 8:29, 10:19, 44, 13:2, 4). Paul, on his journeys, was led by the Spirit (Acts 16:6, 7). He himself was especially conscious that his whole ministry was inspired by the Holy Ghost (Rom. 15:18,19). All the apostles were conspicuously men of the Spirit.

The practical organization offers opportunities for self-advancement, and its appeal is mainly to self-interest. On the other hand, a mass movement, particularly in its active, revivalist phase, appeals not to those intent on bolstering and advancing a cherished self, but to those who crave to be rid of an unwanted self. A mass movement attracts and holds a following not because it can satisfy the desire for self-advancement, but because it can satisfy the passion for self-renunciation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you choose hope, anything's possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62779]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you choose hope, anything's possible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Exercise is the yuppie version of bulimia ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14477]]></link><description><![CDATA[Exercise is the yuppie version of bulimia]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie, but rather mourn the apathetic, throng the coward and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2696]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie, but rather mourn the apathetic, throng the coward and the meek who see the world's great anguish and its wrong, and dare not speak.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['That is indisputable,' was the answer, 'but in this country it is a good thing to kill an admiral from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25233]]></link><description><![CDATA['That is indisputable,' was the answer, 'but in this country it is a good thing to kill an admiral from time to time to encourage the others.']]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is the greatest practical benefit in making a few failures earlyin life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22694]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is the greatest practical benefit in making a few failures earlyin life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57634]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are not a team that typically is able to come back from a 10-point deficit.
