The only evidence of election is therefore vocation, and the only evidence of vocation, is holiness of heart and life, for we are called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Compare again Romans 8:29, where believers are said to be "predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son." To this they are effectually called. They are made like Christ. Fellowship includes union and communion. We are called to be partakers of Christ; partakers of his life, as members of his body; and herefore, partakers of his character, of his sufferings here and of his glory hereafter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Margery Kempe, Mystic, after 1433   Contempt of material things as such is, in fact, no more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7304]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Margery Kempe, Mystic, after 1433   Contempt of material things as such is, in fact, no more orthodox than pantheism -- it is the great dualist heresy which always lies in wait for an over-spiritualized Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7304</guid></item></channel></rss>
