All the Christian virtues are the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22,23). He is the Spirit of holiness (Rom. 1:4), of sanctification (II Thess. 2:13), and of a new life (Rom. 7:6). Love, the greatest of the Christian graces, is the pre-eminent gift of the Spirit (I Cor. 13; Col. 1:8; Rom. 15:30), not only as the grace of character, but also as a principle of unity in the Church (Eph. 4:1-6; cf. 2:18, 22). The Spirit bestows wisdom and knowledge on the individual and in the Church. Paul spoke "God's wisdom in a mystery... through the Spirit, for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God" (I Cor. 2:7-10). "For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit" (I Cor. 12:8). All Christian knowledge was derived from the Spirit, both by Paul and [the Apostle] John (Eph. 1:17, 23; 3:16-19; John 16:13; I John 2:20, 27; cf. James 1:5, 3:15, 17). (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You smell a rose through a fence: If two should smell it, what matter? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54430]]></link><description><![CDATA[You smell a rose through a fence: If two should smell it, what matter?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is consistent with the psyche of Maine.

It frequently appears to the non-Christian mind that this is an immoral or at least unmoral doctrine. Paul appears to be saying that a man is justified before God, not by his goodness or badness, not by his good deeds or bad deeds, but by believing in a certain doctrine of Atonement. Of course, when we come to examine the matter more closely, we can see that there is nothing unmoral in this teaching at all. For if "faith" means using a God-given faculty to apprehend the unseen divine order, and means, moreover, involving oneself in that order by personal commitment, we can at once see how different that is from merely accepting a certain view of Christian redemption... That which man in every religion, every century, every country, was powerless to affect, God has achieved by the devastating humility of His action and suffering in Jesus Christ. Now, accepting such an action as a fait accompli is only possible by this perceptive faculty of "faith". It requires not merely intellectual assent but a shifting of personal trust from the achievements of the self to the completely undeserved action of God. To accept this teaching by mind and heart does, indeed, require a metanoia ["transformation"], a revolution in the outlook of both heart and mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Friendship is almost always the union of a part of one mind with a part of another: people are friends ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16943]]></link><description><![CDATA[Friendship is almost always the union of a part of one mind with a part of another: people are friends in spots.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16943</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can't hold back because the student movement will continue and there could be some risks.
