"We were buried with Christ through our baptism (and so entered) into a state of death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the splendor of the Father, we too might walk in the newness which belongs to (real) life." To the rite as such Paul did not attach overwhelming importance. "Christ", he says, "did not send me to baptize, but to preach the Gospel."  Paul recognized in the idea a most suggestive figure for the change wrought by faith in Christ. He found it necessary to guard against the crude sacramentalism which found in the mere physical process, as such, the actual impartation of new life, quite apart from anything taking place in the realm of inward experience. The Israelites in the wilderness ... received baptism in the Red Sea and in the cloud which overshadowed them; and yet they were disobedient, "the majority of them God did not choose," and they perished miserably. The inference is plain. No sacramental act achieves anything unless it is an outward symbol of what really happens inwardly in experience. The test of that is the reality of the new life as exhibited in its ethical consequences. "How can we who are dead to sin live any longer in sin?" If baptism is a real dying and rising again, then it is indeed a profound revolution in the personal life, a revolution which is simply bound to show itself in a new moral character.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Confusion heard his voice, and wild uproar Stood ruled, stood vast infinitude confined;  Till at his second bidding darkness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45264]]></link><description><![CDATA[Confusion heard his voice, and wild uproar Stood ruled, stood vast infinitude confined;  Till at his second bidding darkness fled,   Light shone, and order from disorder sprung.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a fantasy turns you on, you're obligated to God and nature to start doing it right away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15303]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a fantasy turns you on, you're obligated to God and nature to start doing it right away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[MS-DOS isn't dead, it just smells that way. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61653]]></link><description><![CDATA[MS-DOS isn't dead, it just smells that way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 687  The Church is her true self only when she exists for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8577]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 687  The Church is her true self only when she exists for humanity.
