He has called some to be "player-coaches" ... to equip the laity for the ministry they are to fulfill. This equipping ministry is of unique importance. One is appointed to this ministry by the Holy Spirit; therefore it must be undertaken with utmost seriousness. This is a radical departure from the traditional understanding of the roles of the laity and the clergy. The laity had the idea that they were already committed to a "full-time" vocation in the secular world, [and] thus they did not have time -- at least, much time -- to do God's work. Therefore they contributed money to "free" the clergy to have the time needed to fulfill God's ministry. This view is rank heresy. If we follow this pattern, we may continue to do God's work until the Lord comes again and never fulfill God's purpose as it ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our expectations are always high.

There is no other means to safeguard a propitious development of human affairs than to make the masses of inferior people adopt the ideas of the elite. This has to be achieved by convincing them. It cannot be accomplished by a despotic regime that instead of enlightening the masses beats them into submission. In the long run the ideas of the majority, however detrimental they may be, will carry on. The future of mankind depends on the ability of the elite to influence public opinion in the right direction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a talent of the weak to persuade themselves that they suffer for something when they suffer from something; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46311]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a talent of the weak to persuade themselves that they suffer for something when they suffer from something; that they are showing the way when they are running away; that they see the light when they feel the heat; that they are chosen when they are shunned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46311</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All reformers are bachelors. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53203]]></link><description><![CDATA[All reformers are bachelors.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Storytelling, writing, and song writing are so connected. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37805]]></link><description><![CDATA[Storytelling, writing, and song writing are so connected.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Philosophy: unintelligible answers to insoluble problems. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46518]]></link><description><![CDATA[Philosophy: unintelligible answers to insoluble problems.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These are counties targeted for consolidation.
