The New Testament [again, and notoriously, in the person of St Paul] assumes that there will be places other than the bedroom in which men and women assume consciously differentiated roles. They will do so in the affairs of the home, in which the wife is to "submit" to her husband (Eph. 5:22ff) as head. They will do so even outside the context of family life, since man is "head" of woman in some sense; in quite another context, when the Church is at worship (I Cor. 11:2ff). In order that St Paul should not be misjudged, we must note--(a) that this relational ordering of male and female presupposes a fundamental generic equality (I Cor. 11:1 ff); and (b) that the "submission" of the wife is a special case of a "submission" of all Christians to one another, and complements a husband's love that is to be expressed in self-sacrifice (Eph. 5:2lff, 25ff). The apostle is not an apologist for male tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am declaring a state of emergency because of the clear threat to the nation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35872]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am declaring a state of emergency because of the clear threat to the nation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.

Its complete bondage to nature has enclosed the mind and spirit of man in a fast prison out of which, try as he may, he can find no way of escape. The inability to perceive any longer the reality of things invisible and unseen is a sickness of the soul which cries out to be cured. The only way to dispel the darkness of the present age and liberate it from the prison within which it has become bound is to restore the proper relationship of nature to supernature and of time to eternity as an essential feature of external reality. Until this can be accomplished, there is really very little that the Church or Christianity in general has to offer to this age.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never let the other fellow set the agenda. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10052]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never let the other fellow set the agenda.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10052</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chess is not only knowledge and logic. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28838]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chess is not only knowledge and logic.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Water its living strength first shows, When obstacles its course oppose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Water its living strength first shows, When obstacles its course oppose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I truly believe that we can overcome any hurdle that lies before us and create the life we want to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35781]]></link><description><![CDATA[I truly believe that we can overcome any hurdle that lies before us and create the life we want to live.
