The Church of the Lord Jesus should be a group of those who are redeemed and bound together on the basis of true doctrine. But subsequently they should show together a substantial "sociological healing" of the breaches between men, which have come about because of... man's sin. The Christian sociological position is that the sociological problems which we find... are a result of the separation that has come between men because of sin.

It has run its course. It is vain for eloquent atheists to talk of the great truths that will be revealed if once we see free thought begin. We have seen it end. It has no more questions to ask; it has questioned itself. You cannot call up any wilder vision than a city in which men ask themselves if they have any selves. You cannot fancy a more skeptical world than that in which men doubt whether there is a world. It might certainly have reached its bankruptcy more quickly and cleanly if it had not been feebly hampered by the application of indefensible laws of blasphemy or by the absurd pretense that modern England is Christian. But it would have reached the bankruptcy anyhow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is small or great in God's sight; whatever He wills becomes great to us, however trifling, and if once ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6831]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is small or great in God's sight; whatever He wills becomes great to us, however trifling, and if once the voice of conscience tells us that He requires anything of us, we have no right to measure its importance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No check, no stay this streamlet fears: How merrily it goes!  'Twill murmur on a thousand years,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51859]]></link><description><![CDATA[No check, no stay this streamlet fears: How merrily it goes!  'Twill murmur on a thousand years,   And flow as now it flows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought she wasn't playing as hard as she has been against other premier guards. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28601]]></link><description><![CDATA[I thought she wasn't playing as hard as she has been against other premier guards.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leuconoe, close the book of fate, For troubles are in store,  . . . .   Live today, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59453]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leuconoe, close the book of fate, For troubles are in store,  . . . .   Live today, tomorrow is not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44319]]></link><description><![CDATA[My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
