They are trying to save the Christians out of this labyrinth by reuniting the divided churches, by forming an alliance of churches, or by trying to form an ecumenical church. For all that, it seems very difficult to obtain the desired result, because all the present churches are still standing on the principles of the Reformation, unable to rid themselves of the sectarian spirit inherited from Catholicism. So the number of denominations and sects shows no sign of decreasing, and all efforts to unite the churches seem likely to end only in the formation of yet other sects and denominations. Yet the center of Christianity is neither institution nor organization. Nor is it even the Bible itself, as the Reformers made it, for the Eklesia existed before the formation of the New Testament canon. Christians were in fellowship with God and one another, centering their faith in Christ, long before there was any accepted New Testament. There is only one center of Christianity -- spiritual fellowship with God through Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But she is vanish'd to her shady home Under the deep, inscrutable; and there  Weeps in a midnight made ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18591]]></link><description><![CDATA[But she is vanish'd to her shady home Under the deep, inscrutable; and there  Weeps in a midnight made of her own hair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization is the limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization is the limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not keep on with a mockery of friendship after the substance is gone - but part, while you can ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16925]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not keep on with a mockery of friendship after the substance is gone - but part, while you can part friends.
