Was there really an ordained ministry as early as that? We need not argue about whether, or how, St. Paul was ordained, but he certainly considered that he and his fellow workers had a special pastoral relation to their converts.... St. Paul was primarily a missionary, which in itself establishes a link with the Servant of the Lord. As a missionary, he was not working on his own, but was supported by a group of assistants without whose help he could never have carried on his work. We know the names of many of them... But there were many more whose names we do not know, sometimes referred to as "the brethren" (e.g., in I Cor. 16:11). This missionary group with St. Paul as its leader is the New Testament equivalent of the ordained ministry of today, and it is significant for us that St. Paul describes this group as carrying out in some sense the work of servants in the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But 'midst the crowd, the hum, the shock of men, To hear, to see, to feel, and to possess,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57163]]></link><description><![CDATA[But 'midst the crowd, the hum, the shock of men, To hear, to see, to feel, and to possess,  And roam along, the world's tired denizen,   With none who bless us, none whom we can bless.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57163</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wages are 70 percent of the cost of production.

Jesus Christ, with a confidence that to the timid traditionalism of His time appeared blasphemous, asserted that He knew the Father and was prepared to let others into that knowledge. He did so, not by handing down a new tradition about God, but by making others sharers in His own attitude to God. This is what Paul means by "having the mind of Christ." It was this clear, unquestioning conviction that gave Paul his power as a missionary: but he expected it also in his converts. To them too "the world of knowledge" came "by the same Spirit". He prayed that God would give them a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. Such knowledge is, as Paul freely grants, only partial, but, so far as it goes, it is real, personal knowledge. In friendship between men there is a mutual knowledge which is never complete or free from mystery: yet you can know with a certainty nothing could shake, that your friend is "not the man to do such a thing", or that such-and-such a thing that you have heard is "just like him." You have a real knowledge which gives you a criterion. Such is the knowledge the Christian has of his Father.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's so rewarding when you hear the audience respond. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29917]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's so rewarding when you hear the audience respond.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29917</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But my big thing was always the blues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41181]]></link><description><![CDATA[But my big thing was always the blues.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41181</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou marvell'st at my words, but hold thee still; Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3962]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou marvell'st at my words, but hold thee still; Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16489]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel.
