This supposition rests upon a misunderstanding of what is meant by "the Kingdom of God"... The Kingdom itself is not something to be "furthered" or "built" by men's efforts. It is something which we are invited to recognize as already present, after a manner, in the life and work of Jesus. It is something to be inherited or entered into by those who believe. The task of the Church, in other words, is not to set the stage for a better world than this one but to draw the curtain from it, to reveal something that is already there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's wrong with being a boring kind of guy?. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4736]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's wrong with being a boring kind of guy?.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[More are taken in by hope than by cunning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10836]]></link><description><![CDATA[More are taken in by hope than by cunning.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adventure is worthwhile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28012]]></link><description><![CDATA[Adventure is worthwhile.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like the bee, we should make our industry our amusement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22210]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like the bee, we should make our industry our amusement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She waits for me, my lady Earth, Smiles and waits and sighs;  I'll say her nay, and hide away, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52932]]></link><description><![CDATA[She waits for me, my lady Earth, Smiles and waits and sighs;  I'll say her nay, and hide away,   Then take her by surprise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easier to stay out than get out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/347]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easier to stay out than get out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unseen hands delay The coming of what oft seems close in ken,  And, contrary, the moment, when we say ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12071]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unseen hands delay The coming of what oft seems close in ken,  And, contrary, the moment, when we say   "'Twill never come!" comes on us even then.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance of all things is an evil neither terrible nor excessive, nor yet the greatest of all; but great cleverness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8864]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance of all things is an evil neither terrible nor excessive, nor yet the greatest of all; but great cleverness and much learning, if they be accompanied by a bad training, are a much greater misfortune.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Automotive demand carried the market through the recession years but must now cope with a modest downturn in late 2005 ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38636]]></link><description><![CDATA[Automotive demand carried the market through the recession years but must now cope with a modest downturn in late 2005 and across 2006.

St. Basil the Great  January 3, 1998  Commemoration of Gladys Aylward, Missionary in China, 1970  For us in the Pacific, in Asia, in India, and in Africa, Christian unity is not an optional extra. It is an urgent necessity, for our divisions are a real stumbling-block to the proclamation of the Gospel... Mission is at the heart of the divine reality. It is the will of God and the Kingdom of God which are to be made known.
