Genuine spiritual authority is to be found only where the ministry of hearing, helping, bearing, and proclaiming is carried out. Every cult of personality that emphasizes the distinguished qualities, virtues, and talents of another person, even though these be of an altogether spiritual nature, is worldly and has no place in the Christian community; indeed, it poisons the Christian community...   Genuine authority realizes that it can exist only in the service of Him who alone has authority... The Church does not need brilliant personalities but faithful servants of Jesus and the brethren...   Pastoral authority can be attained only by the servant of Jesus who seeks no power of his own, who himself is a brother among brothers to the authority of the Word.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Intellectually I know that America is no better than any other country; emotionally I know she is better than every ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45835]]></link><description><![CDATA[Intellectually I know that America is no better than any other country; emotionally I know she is better than every other country.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I guess that makes us pioneers in a way.

But they are not repentance at all... It is the simple truth that that sorrow of heart, that healing and sanctifying pain in which sin is really put away, is not ours in independence of God; it is a saving grace which is begotten in the soul under the impression of sin it owes to the revelation of God in Christ. A man can no more repent than he can do anything else without a motive; and the motive which makes evangelic repentance possible does not enter into his world till he sees God as God makes Himself known in the death of Christ. All true penitents are children of the Cross. Their penitence is not their own creation: it is the reaction towards God produced in their souls by this demonstration of what sin is to Him, and of what His love does to reach and win the sinful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:This is me damn it!
