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[A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16734]]></link><description><![CDATA[A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16734</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have marked A thousand blushing apparitions  To start into her face, a thousand innocent shames   In ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4390]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have marked A thousand blushing apparitions  To start into her face, a thousand innocent shames   In angel whiteness beat away those blushes,    And in her eye there hath appeared a fire     To burn the errors that these princes hold      Against her maiden truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ancient lovers believed a kiss would literally unite their souls, because the spirit was said to be carried in one's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ancient lovers believed a kiss would literally unite their souls, because the spirit was said to be carried in one's breath.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple. -Oscar Wilde. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59890]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple. -Oscar Wilde.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63153]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love little children too but I don't cut offtheir heads and stick them in vases.http://www.egroups.com/messages/nomow108/1. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43894]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love little children too but I don't cut offtheir heads and stick them in vases.http://www.egroups.com/messages/nomow108/1.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43894</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm never less at leisure than when at leisure, or less alone than when alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4462]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm never less at leisure than when at leisure, or less alone than when alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64306]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All maxims have their antagonist maxims; proverbs should be sold in pairs, a single one being but a half truth ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26598]]></link><description><![CDATA[All maxims have their antagonist maxims; proverbs should be sold in pairs, a single one being but a half truth]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think either the Offspring or Green Day started their bands with the intention of becoming so enormously popular; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18306]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think either the Offspring or Green Day started their bands with the intention of becoming so enormously popular; that sort of fell in their laps-especially the Offspring. My attitude is if somebody blunders into the level of popularity, at least remember the human factor. These guys are still human beings and hopefully still have hearts and if you keep in touch with them rather than vilify them you may be able to encourage them to go in the right direction. What I'm hoping will eventually happen is that they will grasp the amount of power and financial clout that is now at their fingertips and use those as tools to help real people with real things the way punk politics was always designed to do before, but nobody had any money.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yes, there are two paths you can go byBut in the long runThere's still time to change the road you're ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6094]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yes, there are two paths you can go byBut in the long runThere's still time to change the road you're on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But men often mistake killing and revenge for justice.
