All we can have by ourselves is a club or a debating society; and our only hope, left to ourselves, is to win as many members for our own club and away from other clubs as we can. And whatever this is, it is not Mission. Mission belongs to God. The Mission was His from the beginning; it is His; it will always be His. He has His purposes from the foundation of the world, and the means to fulfill them; and the only part the Church has in this is obedience -- a share in the eternal and life-giving obedience of the Son of God... And the most terrible judgment on the Church comes when God leaves us to our own devices because He is tired of waiting for our obedience -- leaves us to be the domestic chaplains to a comfortable secular world -- and goes Himself into the wilderness of human need and injustice and pain. This judgment does come on churches and nations, when they forget that God is in command, that He does the choosing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the errors of others, a wise man corrects his own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66415]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the errors of others, a wise man corrects his own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66415</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Researchers will look at the OS level, as well as at mobile Web-browsing applications, in an effort to take mobile ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Researchers will look at the OS level, as well as at mobile Web-browsing applications, in an effort to take mobile technology to the next level.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Henry Martyn, Translator of the Scriptures, Missionary in India & Persia, 1812  Weak and imperfect men shall, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7203]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Henry Martyn, Translator of the Scriptures, Missionary in India & Persia, 1812  Weak and imperfect men shall, notwithstanding their frailties and effects, be received as having pleased God, if they have done their utmost to please Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And from the prayer of Want, and plaint of Woe, O never, never turn away their ear!  Forlorn, in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48039]]></link><description><![CDATA[And from the prayer of Want, and plaint of Woe, O never, never turn away their ear!  Forlorn, in this bleak wilderness below,   Ah! what were man, should Heaven refuse to hear!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57634]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So let us begin anew - remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56426]]></link><description><![CDATA[So let us begin anew - remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64302]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Boxing out is the most important part of rebounding.
