Here St. Paul calls flesh (as does Christ in John 3) everything born of flesh, i.e. the whole human being with body and soul, reason and senses, since everything in him tends toward the flesh. That is why you should know enough to call that person "fleshly" who, without grace, fabricates, teaches and chatters about high spiritual matters. You can learn the same thing from Galatians, chapter 5, where St. Paul calls heresy and hatred works of the flesh. And in Romans, chapter 8, he says that, through the flesh, the law is weakened. He says this, not of unchastity, but of all sins, most of all of unbelief, which is the most spiritual of vices.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  The primary object of prayer is to know God better; we and our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  The primary object of prayer is to know God better; we and our needs should come second.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we desire to confine our words, we commonly say they are spoken under the rose.   - Sir ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54974]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we desire to confine our words, we commonly say they are spoken under the rose.   - Sir Thomas Browne,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't throw away the old bucket until you know whether the new one holds water. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51884]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't throw away the old bucket until you know whether the new one holds water.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51884</guid></item></channel></rss>
