They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have to kill a snake, kill it once and for all ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23702]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have to kill a snake, kill it once and for all]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24481]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I didn't hit it too well in the first few holes, when there was no wind.
