But I appeal to you, Brothers, by the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree in what you profess, and not to allow divisions to exist among you, but to be united-of one mind and of one opinion.

It is what Scripture speaks of as-'What eye never saw, nor ear ever heard, what never entered the mind of man-even all that God has prepared for those who love him.'

For 'who has so comprehended the mind of the Lord as to be able to instruct him?' We, however, have the very mind of Christ.

On the other hand, a father, who has definitely made up his mind, and is under no compulsion, but is free to carry out his own wishes, and who has come to the decision, in his own mind, to keep his unmarried daughter at home will be doing right.

I want you to bear in mind, Brothers, that all our ancestors were beneath the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

I praise you, indeed, because you never forget me, and are keeping my injunctions in mind, exactly as I laid them upon you.

If, when praying, I use the gift of 'tongues,' my spirit indeed prays, but my mind is a blank.

What, then, is my conclusion? Simply this-I will pray with my spirit, but with my mind as well; I will sing with my spirit, but with my mind as well.

But at a meeting of the Church I would rather speak five words with my mind, and so teach others, than ten thousand words when using the gift of 'tongues.'

That is what is meant by the words-'Adam, the first man, became a human being'; the last Adam became a Life-giving spirit.
