Of this breach Baptism was the sacrament. In Baptism the change was effected and realized in fact. Baptism was not a mere formal external act, a symbol of a spiritual fact which was already complete without it. A Spiritual conversion which was not also a conversion of life was no conversion at all, but a delusion... With the heart man believes, with the mouth he confesses; but a mouth which does not confess disproves the existence of a heart that believes. The soul cannot be God's and the life not God's at the same time. The soul can not be recreated and the life remain unchanged. The spiritual breach is proved and realized and completed in the outward breach. Where there is no outward change, it is safe to deny an inward change. Faith without Baptism and all that Baptism involved was consequently no part of St. Paul's teaching.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7957</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The person who can be only serious or only cheerful, is but half a man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27192]]></link><description><![CDATA[The person who can be only serious or only cheerful, is but half a man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger may in time change to gladness; vexation may be succeeded by content.
