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.  ...

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[Stained With grief, that's beauty's canter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51493]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stained With grief, that's beauty's canter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The question that faces every man born into this world is not what should be his purpose, which he should ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52252]]></link><description><![CDATA[The question that faces every man born into this world is not what should be his purpose, which he should set about to achieve, but just what to do with life? The answer, that he should order his life so that he can find the greatest happiness in it, is more a practical question, similar to that of how a man should spend his weekend, then a metaphysical proposition as to what is the mystic purpose of his life in the scheme of the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a wonderful honor to be captain in an event that has given me some of the most incredible memories ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36408]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a wonderful honor to be captain in an event that has given me some of the most incredible memories that I've experienced in golf,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think that we may have to be content with a little less, ...
