It is not enough for the Church to be engaged with the State in healing social ills, though this is important at times. But when the world can turn around and see a group of God's people exhibiting substantial healing in the area of human relationships in their present life, then the world will take notice. Each group of Christians is, as it were, a pilot plant, showing that something can be done in the present situation, if only we begin in the right way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never ignore a gut feeling, but never believe that it's enough. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21775]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never ignore a gut feeling, but never believe that it's enough.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21775</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624   Having tried, we must hold fast [to the truth] (I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8098]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624   Having tried, we must hold fast [to the truth] (I Thes. 5:21), upon [the penalty of] the loss of a crown (Rev. 3:11); we must not let go for all the fleabitings of the present afflictions, etc. Having bought truth dear, we must not sell it cheap, not the least grain of it for the whole world; no, not for the saving of souls, though our own most precious; least of all for the bitter sweetening of a little vanishing pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Assumptions based on faith are apparently an ever-present component in any system of belief -- whether these assumptions include the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7179]]></link><description><![CDATA[Assumptions based on faith are apparently an ever-present component in any system of belief -- whether these assumptions include the existence of a personal God, or whether they begin with non-rational directionally-emergent forces governed by statistical probabilities. Our argument does not claim that evidences are so clear that faith is not needed. We do intend to imply, however, that the choice of a set of assumptions is a moral choice. Adherence to an epistemology is not something which merely "happens to" a person, but instead it reflects a component of his moral development. In some sense he is, in my judgment, morally responsible for adopting an epistemology even though it can be neither proved nor disproved to the satisfaction of those who oppose it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It really makes no difference to me whether I start or come off the bench.
