Was there really an ordained ministry as early as that? We need not argue about whether, or how, St. Paul was ordained, but he certainly considered that he and his fellow workers had a special pastoral relation to their converts.... St. Paul was primarily a missionary, which in itself establishes a link with the Servant of the Lord. As a missionary, he was not working on his own, but was supported by a group of assistants without whose help he could never have carried on his work. We know the names of many of them... But there were many more whose names we do not know, sometimes referred to as "the brethren" (e.g., in I Cor. 16:11). This missionary group with St. Paul as its leader is the New Testament equivalent of the ordained ministry of today, and it is significant for us that St. Paul describes this group as carrying out in some sense the work of servants in the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue must be valuable, if men and women of all degrees pretend to have it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue must be valuable, if men and women of all degrees pretend to have it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dally not with mony or women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49191]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dally not with mony or women.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have the courage of my opinions, but I have not the temerity to give a political blank cheque to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57842]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have the courage of my opinions, but I have not the temerity to give a political blank cheque to Lord Salisbury.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is bad?
