It would assuredly make a difference if Christians, in their approach one to another, realized that, in spite of appearances, they were in fact one. If, in their seeking after external reunion, they realized that they were seeking not to create a unity which does not yet exist, but to find an expression for a unity which does exist, which is indeed the one elemental reality, they would approach one another in a better frame of mind. The common recognition of the principle would in itself be a unifying force of great value, and would dispose those who shared it to approach questions of difference in a spirit of unity which would immensely assist their deliberations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Union gives strength.

The first: that the consciences of believers, in seeking assurance of their justification before God, should rise above and advance beyond the law, forgetting all law righteousness... The second part, dependent upon the first, is that consciences observe the law, not as if constrained by the necessity of the law, but that freed from the law's yoke they willingly obey God's will... The third part of Christian freedom lies in this: regarding outward things that are of themselves "indifferent", we are not bound before God by any religious obligation preventing us from sometimes using them and other times not using them, indifferently... Accordingly, it is perversely interpreted both by those who allege it as an excuse for their desires that they may abuse God's good gifts to their own lust and by those who think that freedom does not exist unless it is used before men, and consequently, in using it have no regard for weaker brethren... Nothing is plainer than this rule: that we should use our freedom if it results in the edification of our neighbor, but if it does not help our neighbor, then we should forego it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Aquinas, Priest, Teacher of the Faith, 1274  We have all the reason in the world to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6942]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Aquinas, Priest, Teacher of the Faith, 1274  We have all the reason in the world to believe that the goodness and justice of God is such as to make nothing necessary to be believed by any man which, by the help of due instruction, may not be made sufficiently plain to a common understanding.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Living is a disease from which sleep gives us relief eight hours a day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56632]]></link><description><![CDATA[Living is a disease from which sleep gives us relief eight hours a day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When he to whom a person speaks does not understand, and he who speaks does not understand himself, that is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27444]]></link><description><![CDATA[When he to whom a person speaks does not understand, and he who speaks does not understand himself, that is metaphysics.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27444</guid></item></channel></rss>
