The unity we seek is deeper than anything that the world offers. Communism, Fascism, National Socialism, and even Shintoism have proved their ability to bind men together in a common enterprise with great devotion and selfsacrifice; but these are secular ideals, intermixed with selfinterest, the love of master, and the use of force. Christian Unity can only be "in Christ". It is based on the New Birth and New Life in Christ, and upon the oneness of all the members in the Christ who is the Head. Therefore, "the quest for the unity of the Church must in fact be identical with the quest for Jesus Christ as the concrete Head and Lord of the Church." (Barth) What kind of unity, then, do we ask? It must be God's kind, that for which Christ prayed, and which, therefore, must be in the line of God's purpose. Will He not then take the initiative? It is for us to wait upon Him, and to go through the gates which He opens, to cast up the highway, to gather out the stones of stumbling, to lift up the standard, and to prepare the way of the Lord. (Isa. 62:10).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who is not satisfied with himself will grow; he who is not sure of his own correctness will learn ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54736]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who is not satisfied with himself will grow; he who is not sure of his own correctness will learn many things.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no place in a fanatic's head where reason can enter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15269]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no place in a fanatic's head where reason can enter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Charity: a thing that begins at home, and usually stays there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5744]]></link><description><![CDATA[Charity: a thing that begins at home, and usually stays there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5744</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happy are those who dare courageously to defend what they love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64571]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happy are those who dare courageously to defend what they love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even the weakest is thrust to the wall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61341]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even the weakest is thrust to the wall.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61341</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As you make your bed, so you must lie in it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47235]]></link><description><![CDATA[As you make your bed, so you must lie in it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They didn't play that convincingly, but they were there when it counted.
