Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.  ... Jeremy Taylor  August 14, 2000 Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941   Whether God revealed Himself to the patriarchs by oracles and visions, or suggested, by means of the ministry of men, what should be handed down by tradition to their posterity, it is beyond a doubt that their minds were impressed with a firm assurance of the doctrine, so that they were persuaded and convinced that the information they had received came from God... But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Creatively, this is the best job I've ever had. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36262]]></link><description><![CDATA[Creatively, this is the best job I've ever had.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It isn't what they say about you, it's what they whisper. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27649]]></link><description><![CDATA[It isn't what they say about you, it's what they whisper.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you talk to God, you are praying; if God talks to you, you have schizophrenia. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53674]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you talk to God, you are praying; if God talks to you, you have schizophrenia.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53674</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A religious life is a struggle and not a hymn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53615]]></link><description><![CDATA[A religious life is a struggle and not a hymn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In nothing do men more nearly approach the gods than in giving health to men. [Lat., Homines ad deos nulla ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18916]]></link><description><![CDATA[In nothing do men more nearly approach the gods than in giving health to men. [Lat., Homines ad deos nulla re propius accedunt quam salutem hominibus dando.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's an amazing feeling to have, I find it very hard to believe, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29670]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's an amazing feeling to have, I find it very hard to believe,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In a narrow circle the mind contracts. Man grows with his expanded needs.  [Ger., Im engen Kreis verengert sich ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18398]]></link><description><![CDATA[In a narrow circle the mind contracts. Man grows with his expanded needs.  [Ger., Im engen Kreis verengert sich der Sinn.   Es wachst der Mensch mit seinen grossern Zwecken.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems small, ... but Latinos and Hispanics are concentrated in some very important states: California, New York, Florida and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42439]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems small, ... but Latinos and Hispanics are concentrated in some very important states: California, New York, Florida and Texas.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think there's any animosity between the two sides. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35837]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think there's any animosity between the two sides.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we become depends on what we read after all the professors have finished with us.

The pride of spiritual gifts had led the Corinthians to jealousy and strife. They had divided into factions owning the leadership, one of Paul, one of Apollos, another of Cephas, and another of Christ -- but such factions, the apostle tells them, were not characteristics of the "spiritual", but of the carnal. To divide the Church was to destroy the temple of God, where the Holy Spirit dwelt among them (I Cor. 3:1, 3, 16). And the very gifts about which they quarreled should have been a power to unite them, for they all proceeded from one and the same Spirit, from one and the same Lord, from one and the same God, who worketh all in all. The Spirit was indeed the principle of unity in the Church, "for in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body" (I Cor. 12:13). Therefore, to divide the Church was to drive away the Spirit... The tests of spiritual phenomena in the life of the community, and the proofs that they were of the Holy Spirit, were unity, order, and edification.
