They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wept as I remembered how often you and I had tired the sun with talking and sent him down ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28035]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wept as I remembered how often you and I had tired the sun with talking and sent him down the sky.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is worst of all is to advocate Christianity, not because it is true, but because it might prove useful... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8416]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is worst of all is to advocate Christianity, not because it is true, but because it might prove useful... To justify Christianity because it provides a foundation of morality, instead of showing the necessity of Christian morality from the truth of Christianity, is a very dangerous inversion; and we may reflect that a good deal of the attention of totalitarian states has been devoted with a steadfastness of purpose not always found in democracies, to providing their national life with a foundation of morality -- the wrong kind, perhaps, but a good deal more of it. It is not enthusiasm, but dogma, that differentiates a Christian from a pagan society.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Back in the Saddle Again ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Back in the Saddle Again]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Getting the wing back going may be key.

Trample not on any; there may be some work of grace there, that thou knowest not of.

When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it. He next opened the faggot, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons' hands, upon which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dancing in the chequer'd shade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11041]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dancing in the chequer'd shade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When angry, count to four.
