And since, falling, he was openly exposed, none may flatter himself that the cause of Christ is bound up with his reputation, that the mischief must needs be averted which his downfall would entail, that Providence must needs avert from him the natural penalties for evil-doing.

Now if this be true, and if sin and scandal may conceivably penetrate even the inmost circle of the chosen, how great an error it is to break, because of these offenses, the unity of the Church, and institute some new communion, purer far than the Churches of Corinth and Galatia, which were not abandoned but reformed, and more impenetrable to corruption than the little group of those who ate and drank with Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I assumed there would be an influx of women on the podium, but there are not many more at my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41632]]></link><description><![CDATA[I assumed there would be an influx of women on the podium, but there are not many more at my level than there were 20 years ago.
