It lay in the relationship he held with God. We know the familiar idea of Jesus' oneness with God: only we deal with it too much as a doctrine of the Church, not as an element in Jesus' own experience. If we never find it in reality, in life, we cannot reveal the true Christ-like character at all -- we will always be trying earnestly to be something, but on too superficial and obvious a plane.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn June 28, 1996 Feast of Irenêus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  The Church exists, and does not depend for its existence upon our definition of it: it exists wherever God in His sovereign freedom calls it into being by calling his own into the fellowship of His Son. And it exists solely by His mercy. God shuts up and will shut up every way except the way of faith which simply accepts His mercy as mercy. To that end, He is free to break off unbelieving branches, to graft in wild slips, and to call "No people" His people. And if, at the end, those who have preserved through all the centuries the visible "marks" of the Church find themselves at the same board with some strange and uncouth late-comers on the ecclesiastical scene, may we not fancy that they will hear Him say -- would it not be so like him to say -- "It is my will to give unto these last even as unto thee"? Final judgement belongs to God, and we have to beware of judging before the time. I think that if we refuse fellowship in Christ to any body of men and women who accept Jesus as Lord and show the fruits of His Spirit in their corporate life, we do so at our peril. It behooves us, therefore, to receive one another as Christ has received us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One sure way to lose another woman's friendship is to try to improve her flower arrangements. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65231]]></link><description><![CDATA[One sure way to lose another woman's friendship is to try to improve her flower arrangements.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65231</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only kings, presidents, editors, and people with tapeworms have the right to use the editorial "we." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54233]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only kings, presidents, editors, and people with tapeworms have the right to use the editorial "we."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think a very bad time for the arts.

Where it is possible that fear should exist it is well that it should exist, cause continual uneasiness, and be cast out by nothing less than love.... Until love, which is the truth towards God, is able to cast out fear, it is well that fear should hold; it is a bond, however poor, between that which is and that which creates -- a bond that must be broken, but a bond that can be broken only by the tightening of an infinitely closer bond. Verily God must be terrible to those that are far from Him: for they fear He will do -- yea, is doing -- with them what they do not, cannot desire, and can ill endure... While they are such as they are, there is much in Him that cannot but affright them: they ought, they do well, to fear Him... To remove that fear from their hearts, save by letting them know His love with its purifying fire, a love which for ages, it may be, they cannot know, would be to give them up utterly to the power of evil. Persuade men that fear is a vile thing, that it is an insult to God, that He will have none of it -- while they are yet in love with their own will, and slaves to every movement of passionate impulse -- and what will the consequence be? That they will insult God as a discarded idol, a superstition, a falsehood, as a thing under whose evil influence they have too long groaned, a thing to be cast out and spit upon. After that, how much will they learn of Him?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you're afraid to die, you will not be able to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11395]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're afraid to die, you will not be able to live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11395</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Benefits should be conferred gradually; and in that way they will taste better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Benefits should be conferred gradually; and in that way they will taste better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She was always writing, tending to business, up until the last few months. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31088]]></link><description><![CDATA[She was always writing, tending to business, up until the last few months.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Post-modernism is modernism with the optimism taken out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46298]]></link><description><![CDATA[Post-modernism is modernism with the optimism taken out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A baseball fan is a spectator sitting 500 feet from home plate who can see better than an umpire standing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3769]]></link><description><![CDATA[A baseball fan is a spectator sitting 500 feet from home plate who can see better than an umpire standing five feet away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With new broadband video outlets dramatically changing the entertainment and communications markets, the Telecom NEXT exhibit floor brings content providers ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38337]]></link><description><![CDATA[With new broadband video outlets dramatically changing the entertainment and communications markets, the Telecom NEXT exhibit floor brings content providers and the newest video solutions together to help network service providers make critical purchasing decisions for deploying voice, video and data services over next-generation networks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63628]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people of this city have lost a great warrior, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33475]]></link><description><![CDATA[The people of this city have lost a great warrior,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[New York is the Caoutchouc City. . . .
