The unbeliever may take his own temperament and experience, just as they happen to stand, and consider them worth communicating simply because they are his. To the Christian his own temperament and experience, as mere fact, and as merely his, are of no value or importance whatsoever: he will deal with them, if at all, only because they are the medium through which, or the position from which, something universally profitable appeared to him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A new poll showed that if the election was held today, people would be confused because it is normally held ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47381]]></link><description><![CDATA[A new poll showed that if the election was held today, people would be confused because it is normally held in November.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people: that each protects the solitude of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57159]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people: that each protects the solitude of the other]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We tried to get foam on it as soon as we could.

I promise thee, Christ will not hear their excuse; for He himself suffered harm for our sakes, and for our salvation was put to extreme death. I wis, if it had pleased Him, He might have saved us and never felt pain; but in suffering pains and death He did give us example, and teach us how we should do one for another, as He did for us all; for, as He saith himself, "he that will be mine, let him deny himself, and follow me, in bearing my cross and suffering my pains." Wherefore we must needs suffer pain with Christ to do our neighbor good, as well with the body and all his members, as with heart and mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He best can paint them who shall feel them most. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45428]]></link><description><![CDATA[He best can paint them who shall feel them most.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not the kind of publishing we want to do.

It lay in the relationship he held with God. We know the familiar idea of Jesus' oneness with God: only we deal with it too much as a doctrine of the Church, not as an element in Jesus' own experience. If we never find it in reality, in life, we cannot reveal the true Christ-like character at all -- we will always be trying earnestly to be something, but on too superficial and obvious a plane.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn June 28, 1996 Feast of Irenêus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  The Church exists, and does not depend for its existence upon our definition of it: it exists wherever God in His sovereign freedom calls it into being by calling his own into the fellowship of His Son. And it exists solely by His mercy. God shuts up and will shut up every way except the way of faith which simply accepts His mercy as mercy. To that end, He is free to break off unbelieving branches, to graft in wild slips, and to call "No people" His people. And if, at the end, those who have preserved through all the centuries the visible "marks" of the Church find themselves at the same board with some strange and uncouth late-comers on the ecclesiastical scene, may we not fancy that they will hear Him say -- would it not be so like him to say -- "It is my will to give unto these last even as unto thee"? Final judgement belongs to God, and we have to beware of judging before the time. I think that if we refuse fellowship in Christ to any body of men and women who accept Jesus as Lord and show the fruits of His Spirit in their corporate life, we do so at our peril. It behooves us, therefore, to receive one another as Christ has received us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Paul and Cody are the only players from the Midwest going to Ohio State next year, so that's pretty great. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39768]]></link><description><![CDATA[Paul and Cody are the only players from the Midwest going to Ohio State next year, so that's pretty great.
