St. Polycarp, Letter to the Philippians February 24, 2000  In church government... our primary concern is to reflect the nature of God. Christ became man in order that He might redeem men from their fallen state, from their selfishness and self-isolating divisions from God and from each other; so that, gathered together in one in Him, man may offer to God that likeness to Himself in love for which he was created. Church government is primarily concerned with this: with worship, with the drawing of the whole life of the whole world into this reflection of the nature of God. It is secondly -- and only secondly -- concerned with the quarrels and peccadilloes of those who are not, as a matter of fact, imitating God's nature very faithfully.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed is he who expects nothing for he shall never be disappointed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed is he who expects nothing for he shall never be disappointed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two people in love, alone, isolated from the world.
