Genuine spiritual authority is to be found only where the ministry of hearing, helping, bearing, and proclaiming is carried out. Every cult of personality that emphasizes the distinguished qualities, virtues, and talents of another person, even though these be of an altogether spiritual nature, is worldly and has no place in the Christian community; indeed, it poisons the Christian community...   Genuine authority realizes that it can exist only in the service of Him who alone has authority... The Church does not need brilliant personalities but faithful servants of Jesus and the brethren...   Pastoral authority can be attained only by the servant of Jesus who seeks no power of his own, who himself is a brother among brothers to the authority of the Word.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best system is to have one party govern and the other party watch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45591]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best system is to have one party govern and the other party watch.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus said; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62036]]></link><description><![CDATA[But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus said; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Rose has but a Summer reign, The daisy never dies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10995]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Rose has but a Summer reign, The daisy never dies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Merchant City has some great venues for comedy.
