And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.  ... Lesslie Newbigin, The Household of God February 2, 2000 THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  Persons that are well affected to religion, that receive instructions of piety with pleasure and satisfaction, often wonder how it comes to pass that they make no greater progress in that religion which they so much admire. Now the reason of it is this: it is because religion lives only in their head, but something else has possession of their heart; and therefore they continue from year to year mere admirers and praisers of piety, without ever coming up to the reality and perfection of its precepts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The better part of valour is discretion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12457]]></link><description><![CDATA[The better part of valour is discretion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12457</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Games are a compromise between intimacy and keeping intimacy away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9291]]></link><description><![CDATA[Games are a compromise between intimacy and keeping intimacy away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9291</guid></item></channel></rss>
