The unity we seek is deeper than anything that the world offers. Communism, Fascism, National Socialism, and even Shintoism have proved their ability to bind men together in a common enterprise with great devotion and selfsacrifice; but these are secular ideals, intermixed with selfinterest, the love of master, and the use of force. Christian Unity can only be "in Christ". It is based on the New Birth and New Life in Christ, and upon the oneness of all the members in the Christ who is the Head. Therefore, "the quest for the unity of the Church must in fact be identical with the quest for Jesus Christ as the concrete Head and Lord of the Church." (Barth) What kind of unity, then, do we ask? It must be God's kind, that for which Christ prayed, and which, therefore, must be in the line of God's purpose. Will He not then take the initiative? It is for us to wait upon Him, and to go through the gates which He opens, to cast up the highway, to gather out the stones of stumbling, to lift up the standard, and to prepare the way of the Lord. (Isa. 62:10).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Genius is mainly an affair of energy, and poetry is mainly an affair of genius; therefore a nation whose spirit ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42220]]></link><description><![CDATA[Genius is mainly an affair of energy, and poetry is mainly an affair of genius; therefore a nation whose spirit is characterized by energy may well be imminent in poetry - and we have Shakespeare.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do you want to be safe and good, or do you want to take a chance and be great? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22573]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do you want to be safe and good, or do you want to take a chance and be great?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accuracy is to a newspaper what virtue is to a lady, but a newspaper can always print a retraction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accuracy is to a newspaper what virtue is to a lady, but a newspaper can always print a retraction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I guess we took the illustrations to influential people so they could help.

It is the recognition by man's higher nature of sources of comfort and hope beyond anything that sense-knowledge discloses. It is the consciousness of a Divine Father toward Whom goes out all that is in affection and highest in moral aspiration; it is the premonition of a future life of which the best attainment here is but the twilight promise. In our day, the sudden and vast revelation of material wonders unsteadies and dims for the moment the spiritual sight; but the stars will shine clear again.  The truth-seeking spirit and the spirit of faith, instead of being opposed, are in the deepest harmony. The man whose faith is most genuine is most willing to have its assertions tested by the severest scrutiny. And the passion for truth has underlying it a profound conviction that what is real is best; that when we get to the heart of things we shall find there what we most need. Faith is false to itself when it dreads truth, and the desire for truth is prompted by an inner voice of faith.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6452</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those true eyes Too pure and too honest in aught to disguise The sweet soul shining through them ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14811]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those true eyes Too pure and too honest in aught to disguise The sweet soul shining through them]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14811</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Steven Ross has concurred that this plan will meet the Office of Human Rights' concern and will disperse the (English ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37200]]></link><description><![CDATA[Steven Ross has concurred that this plan will meet the Office of Human Rights' concern and will disperse the (English as a Second Language) population across the district.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing pleases which is not freshened by variety. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51627]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing pleases which is not freshened by variety.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46979]]></link><description><![CDATA[We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread.
