That phrase represents Paul's "ecclesia of God". It is a community of loving persons, who bear one another's burdens, who seek to build up one another in love, who "have the same thoughts in relation to one another that they have in their communion with Christ". It is all this because it is the living embodiment of Christ's own Spirit. This is a high and mystical doctrine, but a doctrine which has no meaning apart from loving fellowship in real life. A company of people who celebrate a solemn sacrament of Christ's Body and Blood, and all the time are moved by selfish passions -- rivalry, competition, mutual contempt -- is not for Paul a Church or Divine Commonwealth at all, no matter how lofty their faith or how deep their mystical experience; for all these things may "puff up"; love alone "builds up". In the very act, therefore, of attaining its liberty to exist, the Divine Commonwealth has transcended the great divisions of men. In principle, it has transcended them all, and by seriously living out that which its association means, it is on the way to comprehending the whole race. Short of that its development can never stop. This is the revealing of the sons of God for which the whole creation is waiting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing politer than this.

I knew it would all fizzle out, and come to nothing. I could pray! Yes, you could pray, and, whatever you may think about it -- using it as a poor makeshift of a thing much lower than a second-best, not really a best at all, on which men fall back only when they can do nothing effectively, and are too fidgety to be able to do nothing at all -- Christ holds that prayer is a tremendous power which achieves what, without it, was a sheer impossibility. And this amazing thing you can set into operation. And the fact that you are not so using it, and simply don't believe in it and its efficiency and efficacy as our fathers did, and that so many nowadays agree with you, is certainly a major reason why the churches are so cold, and the promises seem so tardy of fulfillment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alas, by what trivial causes is greatness overthrown! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48899]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alas, by what trivial causes is greatness overthrown!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A joy shared is a joy doubled ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23390]]></link><description><![CDATA[A joy shared is a joy doubled]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If in other lands the press and books and literature of all kinds are censored, we must redouble our efforts ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5415]]></link><description><![CDATA[If in other lands the press and books and literature of all kinds are censored, we must redouble our efforts here to keep them free]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5415</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Keep a grateful journal.
