But depend upon it, they do not by adding these words, or any words, bring it about that their prayers should be in the name of Christ. To pray in the name of Christ means to pray in such a way as represents Christ. The representative always must speak in the spirit and meaning of those for whom he speaks. If Christ is our representative, that must be because He speaks our wishes, or what we ought to make our wishes; and if we are to pray in the name of Christ, that means that we are, however far off, expressing His wishes and intentions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nike is a marketing machine with a culture that has developed over 30-plus years, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42571]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nike is a marketing machine with a culture that has developed over 30-plus years,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was the most exciting match of the day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42149]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was the most exciting match of the day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221   The mystery revealed, in a unique degree ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6690]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221   The mystery revealed, in a unique degree and form, in Christ's life, is really a universal spiritual human law: the law of suffering and sacrifice, as the one way to joy and possession, which has existed, though veiled till now, since the foundation of the world.   ... Friedrich von Hügel August 9, 2000 Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   When evangelicals call the Bible "inerrant", part at least of their meaning is this: that, in exegesis and exposition of Scripture and in building up our biblical theology from the fruits of our Bible study, we may not (1) deny, disregard, or arbitrarily relativize, anything that the biblical writers teach, nor (2) discount any of the practical implications for worship and service that their teaching carries, nor (3) cut the knot of any problem of Bible harmony, factual or theological, by allowing ourselves to assume that the inspired writers were not necessarily consistent either with themselves or with each other. It is because the word "inerrant" makes these methodological points about handling the Bible, ruling out in advance the use of mental procedures that can only lead to reduced and distorted versions of Christianity, that it is so valuable and, I think, so much valued by those who embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only you and I can help the sun rise each coming morning.
