But this was not the issue, quite. In this case the choice was between being a good Methodist and a good American, and being a tribal religionist. But the theological problem of churches without discipline comes into stark outline in the quotation. Inadequately trained for membership, admitted without preparatory training, without the proper instruments of voluntary discipline, many members have never had the discontinuity between life in Christ and life in the world brought home to them. Here the ordinary members are less at fault than the leadership of the churches, who -- though sworn to uphold the form of sound words and doctrine -- neglect catechetical instruction and concentrate solely on the acquisition of more new members at any price.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis Fate that flings the dice, And as she flings  Of kings makes peasants,   And of peasants ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15391]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis Fate that flings the dice, And as she flings  Of kings makes peasants,   And of peasants kings.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A merrier man, Within the limit of becoming mirth, I never spent an hour's talk withal. -Love's Labour 's Lost. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55481]]></link><description><![CDATA[A merrier man, Within the limit of becoming mirth, I never spent an hour's talk withal. -Love's Labour 's Lost.
