In the process by which opinion is formed, it is very probable that, by the time any view becomes a majority view, it is no longer the best view: somebody will already have advanced beyond the point which the majority have reached.

By this we do not mean any particular part of the Church; what we do mean is that conversion must leave one linked in loving fellowship with one's fellow believers. Conversion is not something simply between a man and Jesus Christ, with no other person involved. True, it may start in that way; but it cannot end in that way. Conversion is not individualistic. It is, in fact, just the opposite. It joins man to his fellow men, and certainly does not separate him from them.

And when a Christian fails at something he ought to have done, it isn't just the failure that hurts -- there is also the knowledge that he has let Jesus down. And those little shortcomings of ours, that used to matter so little, compared with the glaring faults of others: we know now that our temper, or our gloom, or our selfishness, reflects on Jesus; and knowing that people are judging your Lord by you is not always a joyous thought to live with. Even the growing up to His measure is hard on a man: we have so little aptitude for such a transformation that it always means conflict, and often rebellion. And temptations hurt as they never did before: not just in the conscience, but in the heart. The assaults of temptation are not on our prudence now, or even on our morals, but on the love for Jesus. His love for us has made Him quite defenseless against our hurting Him, and so temptation is no longer an urge to do a bad thing but an urge to hurt a loving Person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The manner in which one endures what must be endured is more important than the thing that must be endured. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13803]]></link><description><![CDATA[The manner in which one endures what must be endured is more important than the thing that must be endured.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When it seems that someone has shattered your dreams....pick up even the smallest of pieces and use them to build ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1478]]></link><description><![CDATA[When it seems that someone has shattered your dreams....pick up even the smallest of pieces and use them to build bigger and better dreams.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Sesquippledan', he would say, 'Sesquippledan verboojuice". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27970]]></link><description><![CDATA['Sesquippledan', he would say, 'Sesquippledan verboojuice".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Their leadership was much better than ours.
