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://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There wasn't one particular thing that made us say we needed to have this drill, it's more of a general ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42084]]></link><description><![CDATA[There wasn't one particular thing that made us say we needed to have this drill, it's more of a general preparedness thing.
