But this tension is not something that concerns the Church and the world as though they are things which exist outside us and apart from us, which we can consider and observe and discuss and have theories about. The tension between the Church and the world exists within us and is the very fiber of our being, and neither the one nor the other is superficial or trivial. For we are, all of us, of the earth, earthy; and we are also baptized members of Christ and His Church. It is precisely because we belong to two worlds that our lives consist in insecurity -- that we are, in fact, a drama, the final act of which, the judgement of reward or punishment, heaven or hell, is hidden from us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We firmly expect to achieve progress and advance beyond agreements reached at ... previous talks, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28848]]></link><description><![CDATA[We firmly expect to achieve progress and advance beyond agreements reached at ... previous talks,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not unusual to find meals or events held, not only in conference center rooms, but also in lounges, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35913]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not unusual to find meals or events held, not only in conference center rooms, but also in lounges, restaurants, around pool facilities or other outdoor locations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I write with experiences in mind, but I don't write about them, I write out of them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38734]]></link><description><![CDATA[I write with experiences in mind, but I don't write about them, I write out of them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38734</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Profit news continues to be good, and we are seeing some relief from the profit taking of the last few ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34037]]></link><description><![CDATA[Profit news continues to be good, and we are seeing some relief from the profit taking of the last few weeks.
