THE POWERS OF THE AGE TO COME

WE are justified in believing that there will be nothing mechanical in the operations of immortal life. The controlling presence of the spirit will not exclude individuality of thought and volition. Rather will there be that diversity in glorious unity. One spirit, acting in the diversity of individual gift and intelligence -- (in harmony, but not in monotony) will be no new experience. In the apostolic age, the same phenomenon was exemplified in a lower form (1 Corinthians 12:4-11). What would be true of the apostles in their exaltation would be true of all saints, so that we may look forward to a life of the interest that comes even now from the application of individual judgment to the decision of problems as they arise.
