He has called some to be "player-coaches" ... to equip the laity for the ministry they are to fulfill. This equipping ministry is of unique importance. One is appointed to this ministry by the Holy Spirit; therefore it must be undertaken with utmost seriousness. This is a radical departure from the traditional understanding of the roles of the laity and the clergy. The laity had the idea that they were already committed to a "full-time" vocation in the secular world, [and] thus they did not have time -- at least, much time -- to do God's work. Therefore they contributed money to "free" the clergy to have the time needed to fulfill God's ministry. This view is rank heresy. If we follow this pattern, we may continue to do God's work until the Lord comes again and never fulfill God's purpose as it ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They are absolutely delighted with the settlement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42407]]></link><description><![CDATA[They are absolutely delighted with the settlement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every day, nay every moment, try to do some good deed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63865]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every day, nay every moment, try to do some good deed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63865</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My temper leads me to peace and harmony with all men; and it is peculiarly my wish to avoid any ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58849]]></link><description><![CDATA[My temper leads me to peace and harmony with all men; and it is peculiarly my wish to avoid any personal feuds or dissensions with those, who are embarked in the same great national interest with myself, as every difference of this kind in its conseq]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thyself and thy belongings Are not thine own so proper as to waste Thyself upon thy virtues, they on thee. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55374]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thyself and thy belongings Are not thine own so proper as to waste Thyself upon thy virtues, they on thee.
