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).

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[True leadership must be for the benefit of the followers not the enrichment of the leaders. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16316]]></link><description><![CDATA[True leadership must be for the benefit of the followers not the enrichment of the leaders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Desperation is sometimes as powerful an inspirer as genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12048]]></link><description><![CDATA[Desperation is sometimes as powerful an inspirer as genius.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing to judge in any jazz artist is, does the man project and does he have ideas. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23138]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thing to judge in any jazz artist is, does the man project and does he have ideas.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13275]]></link><description><![CDATA[My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the feast.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Identity is such a crucial affair that one shouldn't rush into it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20299]]></link><description><![CDATA[Identity is such a crucial affair that one shouldn't rush into it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20299</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I saw young Harry with his visor up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51303]]></link><description><![CDATA[I saw young Harry with his visor up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hear Everything and judge for yourself ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18976]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hear Everything and judge for yourself]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't want to pick a family that just created a fund they don't have a history in. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35356]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't want to pick a family that just created a fund they don't have a history in.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was Autumn, and incessant Piped the quails from shocks and sheaves,  And, like living coals, the apples  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3562]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was Autumn, and incessant Piped the quails from shocks and sheaves,  And, like living coals, the apples   Burned among the withering leaves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Profitability doesn't happen when you're walking on bullshit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22475]]></link><description><![CDATA[Profitability doesn't happen when you're walking on bullshit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He managed to hit all the keys on the great American political piano. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23694]]></link><description><![CDATA[He managed to hit all the keys on the great American political piano.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you can't love, learn how to flatter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16182]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you can't love, learn how to flatter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[a beautiful girl can make you dizzy, like you been drinkin jack and coke all morning. she can make you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17465]]></link><description><![CDATA[a beautiful girl can make you dizzy, like you been drinkin jack and coke all morning. she can make you feel high, for the single greatest comodity known to man - promise. promise of a better day, promise of a greater hope, promise of a new tomorrow. this particular aura, can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl, in her smile, in her soul, and the way she makes every rotten little thing about life seem like its gonna be ok]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People compose for many reasons: to become immortal;
