Many preachers have made use of this fact to point out helpful spiritual implications; and yet, by New Testament times, the word carried no such denotation as "called out." It was simply the word for "assembly" or "congregation." It so happened that in the Greek city-states an assembly of the citizenry resulted from the people being called out of their city and summoned from their farms to participate in such gatherings. Even though the etymology of the word remains, its real meaning is just "assembly," and a Greek-speaking person of New Testament times would be no more inclined to understand ekklesia in its original etymological value of "called out" than we today would recognize "God be with you" in "good-by," which, as we may learn from the dictionary, was derived from the longer phrase.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To make mistakes is human; to stumble is commonplace; to be able to laugh at yourself is maturity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26573]]></link><description><![CDATA[To make mistakes is human; to stumble is commonplace; to be able to laugh at yourself is maturity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The road to success is always under construction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65835]]></link><description><![CDATA[The road to success is always under construction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tell your friend a lie.

We sadly undervalue prayer when we conceive it in these terms, just as we should underestimate rain by describing it as something that fills the birdbath in our garden. Properly understood, prayer is a mature activity indispensable to the fullest development of personality -- the ultimate integration of man's highest faculties. Only in prayer do we achieve that complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind and spirit which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strengths.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many talk of Robin Hood that never shot his bow, And many talk of Little John that never did him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51013]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many talk of Robin Hood that never shot his bow, And many talk of Little John that never did him know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here's to alcohol: the cause of, and answer to, all of life's problems. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here's to alcohol: the cause of, and answer to, all of life's problems.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here and there they are seen swimming in the vast flood. [Lat., Apparent rari nantes in gurgite vasto.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here and there they are seen swimming in the vast flood. [Lat., Apparent rari nantes in gurgite vasto.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56198</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opinions that are well rooted should grow and change like a healthy tree. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46350]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opinions that are well rooted should grow and change like a healthy tree.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You know what?
