They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshippers meeting together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be were they to become 'unity' conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship. Social religion is perfected when private religion is purified. The body becomes stronger as its members become healthier. The whole church of God gains when the members that compose it begin to seek a better and a higher life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because they were prejudiced against the meanness of our Saviour's birth and condition, and had upon false grounds (though, as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6957]]></link><description><![CDATA[Because they were prejudiced against the meanness of our Saviour's birth and condition, and had upon false grounds (though, as they thought, upon the infallibility of tradition and of Scripture interpreted by tradition) entertained quite other notions of the Messiah from what he was really to be, because they were proud and thought themselves too wise to learn of him, and because his doctrine of humility and selfdenial did thwart their interest and bring down their authority and credit among the people; therefore they set themselves against him with all their might, opposing his doctrine and blasting his reputation and persecuting him to the death: and all this while did bear up themselves with a conceit of the antiquity and privileges of their church, and their profound knowledge in the laws of God, and a great external show of piety and devotion and an arrogant presence and usurpation of being the only church and people of God in the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6957</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a dream, sweet child! a waking dream, A blissful certainty, a vision bright,  Of that rare happiness, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60879]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a dream, sweet child! a waking dream, A blissful certainty, a vision bright,  Of that rare happiness, which even on earth   Heaven gives to those it loves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60879</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Majority Leader DeLay is a fixture within the conservative movement and has a strong record of accomplishments, which makes him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32419]]></link><description><![CDATA[Majority Leader DeLay is a fixture within the conservative movement and has a strong record of accomplishments, which makes him an inviting target for liberals and Democrats alike.

It does not always ask words, but it always wants work. The motives and not the means are the things on which it passes judgment. And the man who shows by his life that he is not ashamed of the Gospel will assuredly one day find that the Gospel is not ashamed of him. There is much more which might be said, but I refrain. Ere I close, you will let me add my emphasis to the fact that it is in our life and conduct that we must show our devotion to Christ. The silent Gospel reaches further than the grandest rhetoric.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Englishman thinks he is moral when he is only uncomfortable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43110]]></link><description><![CDATA[An Englishman thinks he is moral when he is only uncomfortable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43110</guid></item></channel></rss>
