The source of religious preoccupation is in the self, or rather the rejection of the self. Dedication is the obverse side of self-rejection.

Of this breach Baptism was the sacrament. In Baptism the change was effected and realized in fact. Baptism was not a mere formal external act, a symbol of a spiritual fact which was already complete without it. A Spiritual conversion which was not also a conversion of life was no conversion at all, but a delusion... With the heart man believes, with the mouth he confesses; but a mouth which does not confess disproves the existence of a heart that believes. The soul cannot be God's and the life not God's at the same time. The soul can not be recreated and the life remain unchanged. The spiritual breach is proved and realized and completed in the outward breach. Where there is no outward change, it is safe to deny an inward change. Faith without Baptism and all that Baptism involved was consequently no part of St. Paul's teaching.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7957</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cannot expect people to take seriously our belief in objective truth if, in our practice, we indicate only a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6204]]></link><description><![CDATA[We cannot expect people to take seriously our belief in objective truth if, in our practice, we indicate only a quantitative difference between all men who are in ecclesiastical structures or who use theological language.

But I do mean that we should not give the impression in our practice that, just because they are expressed in traditional Christian terminology, all religious concepts are on a graduated, quantitative spectrum -- that, in regard to central doctrine, no chasm exists between right and wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6204</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If heaven send no supplies, The fairest blossom of the garden dies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51916]]></link><description><![CDATA[If heaven send no supplies, The fairest blossom of the garden dies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things which of themselves avail nothing, when united become powerful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50787]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things which of themselves avail nothing, when united become powerful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give us the luxuries of life, and we will dispense with its necessaries. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26096]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give us the luxuries of life, and we will dispense with its necessaries.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Talking is just masturbation without the mess. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58630]]></link><description><![CDATA[Talking is just masturbation without the mess.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58630</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people who cast the votes don't decide an election, the people who count the votes do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47352]]></link><description><![CDATA[The people who cast the votes don't decide an election, the people who count the votes do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once the Fed signals its intentions or investors perceive that the end is near, stocks might rise strongly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34702]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once the Fed signals its intentions or investors perceive that the end is near, stocks might rise strongly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What deep wounds ever closed without a scar? The hearts bleed longest, and but heal to wear  That which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62362]]></link><description><![CDATA[What deep wounds ever closed without a scar? The hearts bleed longest, and but heal to wear  That which disfigures it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wouldn't have turned out the way I was if I didn't have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53146]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wouldn't have turned out the way I was if I didn't have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53146</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The foule Toade hath a faire stone in his head. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50605]]></link><description><![CDATA[The foule Toade hath a faire stone in his head.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50605</guid></item></channel></rss>
