It lay in the relationship he held with God. We know the familiar idea of Jesus' oneness with God: only we deal with it too much as a doctrine of the Church, not as an element in Jesus' own experience. If we never find it in reality, in life, we cannot reveal the true Christ-like character at all -- we will always be trying earnestly to be something, but on too superficial and obvious a plane.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn June 28, 1996 Feast of Irenêus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  The Church exists, and does not depend for its existence upon our definition of it: it exists wherever God in His sovereign freedom calls it into being by calling his own into the fellowship of His Son. And it exists solely by His mercy. God shuts up and will shut up every way except the way of faith which simply accepts His mercy as mercy. To that end, He is free to break off unbelieving branches, to graft in wild slips, and to call "No people" His people. And if, at the end, those who have preserved through all the centuries the visible "marks" of the Church find themselves at the same board with some strange and uncouth late-comers on the ecclesiastical scene, may we not fancy that they will hear Him say -- would it not be so like him to say -- "It is my will to give unto these last even as unto thee"? Final judgement belongs to God, and we have to beware of judging before the time. I think that if we refuse fellowship in Christ to any body of men and women who accept Jesus as Lord and show the fruits of His Spirit in their corporate life, we do so at our peril. It behooves us, therefore, to receive one another as Christ has received us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What you keep by you, you may change and mend but words, once spoken, can never be recalled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62057]]></link><description><![CDATA[What you keep by you, you may change and mend but words, once spoken, can never be recalled.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62057</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[a phoenix.

We invoke the true God for the Emperor. Even if he persecute us, we are bidden to pray for them that persecute us, as you can read in our books, which are not hidden, which you often get hold of. We pray for him because the Empire lies between us and the end of the world. We count the Caesars to be God's vice-regents and swear by their safety (not by their genius, as required). As for loyalty, Caesar really is more ours than yours; for it was our God who set him up. It is for his own good, that we refuse to call the Emperor God; Father of his Country is a better title. No Christian has ever made a plot against a Caesar; the famous conspirators and assassins were heathen, one and all. Piety, religion, faith are our best offering of loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The farmer's daughter hath soft brown hair (Butter and eggs and a pound of cheese)  And I met with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3694]]></link><description><![CDATA[The farmer's daughter hath soft brown hair (Butter and eggs and a pound of cheese)  And I met with a ballad, I can't say where,   That wholly consisted of lines like these.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The English instinctively admire any man who has no talent and is modest about it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36976]]></link><description><![CDATA[The English instinctively admire any man who has no talent and is modest about it]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am Sir Oracle, And when I ope my lips, let no dog bark! -The Merchant of Venice.
