Here we all gather around the one Altar, here we all share in shaping the policy of the Church in this diocese; here we all take part in making provision for carrying on the work of the Church during the coming year. At this time, year by year, we are specially conscious of our unity in Christ, and are made aware afresh that we are members of this new race of human beings which is made up of all those of every ethnic group who have been added to Christ. We are members of that Kingdom in which all human antagonisms are transcended. Yet we shall not interpret aright this unity which is ours in Christ Jesus unless we continually remind ourselves that it has its origin in His death and resurrection. The Church springs out of the deeds of Jesus done in the flesh, and we can only fulfill our destiny in the Church as we learn that we are utterly dependent upon the whole Body of Christ. . . . Whatever gifts we possess belong to the Body, and are useful only as they are used in the common life of the Church. All this is made very plain in the New Testament Epistles, for in them we are taught that each local Christian community is a fellowship in which every member is to live in humility and in love to the brethren. Yet no local church is to live to it self. Again and again, local churches are reminded of their close relationship to one another, in life, work, worship, pain, and death. Not that such a relationship is to be regarded either as a matter of convenience or as a question of organization. On the contrary, this intimate relationship is seen as the direct outcome of the saving work of Christ. This unity with one another, and of local churches with each other, is the unity which belongs to the Body of Christ, arising from the unity of God Himself, uttered in the dying and rising again of Jesus, and now expressed in the order and structure of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Candor is the brightest gem of criticism. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5210]]></link><description><![CDATA[Candor is the brightest gem of criticism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...when we renounce the self and become part of a compact whole, we not only renounce personal advantage but are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47571]]></link><description><![CDATA[...when we renounce the self and become part of a compact whole, we not only renounce personal advantage but are also rid of personal responsibility. There is no telling to what extremes of cruelty and ruthlessness a man will go when he is freed from the fears, hesitations, doubts and the vague stirrings of decency that go with individual judgement. When we lose our individual independence in the corporateness of a mass movement, we find a new freedom- freedom to hate, bully, lie, torture, murder and betray without shame and remorse. Herein undoubtedly lies part of the attractiveness of a mass movement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57937]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The deal is a clear sign that it still pays to be overweight Mexico and we expect to see more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31068]]></link><description><![CDATA[The deal is a clear sign that it still pays to be overweight Mexico and we expect to see more upside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of John & Henry Venn, Priests, Evangelical Divines, 1813, 1873  For Christian consciousness, paradise is the Kingdom of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8369]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of John & Henry Venn, Priests, Evangelical Divines, 1813, 1873  For Christian consciousness, paradise is the Kingdom of Christ and is unthinkable apart from Christ.

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep   The silent stars go by: Yet in thy dark streets shineth   The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years   Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary;   And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep   Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars together   Proclaim the holy birth; And praises sing to God the King,   And peace to men on earth. How silently, how silently,   The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts   The blessings of His Heav'n. No ear may hear His coming,   But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him still,   The dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem,   Descend to us, we pray, Cast out our sins, and enter in,   Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels   The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us,   Our Lord Emmanuel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7557</guid></item></channel></rss>
