It does not always ask words, but it always wants work. The motives and not the means are the things on which it passes judgment. And the man who shows by his life that he is not ashamed of the Gospel will assuredly one day find that the Gospel is not ashamed of him. There is much more which might be said, but I refrain. Ere I close, you will let me add my emphasis to the fact that it is in our life and conduct that we must show our devotion to Christ. The silent Gospel reaches further than the grandest rhetoric.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Gregory, Bishop of Nyssa, & his sister Macrina, Teachers, c.394 & c.379  It is a singularly unpleasant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7416]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Gregory, Bishop of Nyssa, & his sister Macrina, Teachers, c.394 & c.379  It is a singularly unpleasant thought that a book about Holy Communion is more likely to produce disagreement and controversy than one written on almost any other Christian subject. It seems a truly terrible thing that this Sacred Appointment, which was surely meant to unite, in actual practice divides Christians more sharply than any other part of their worship. Christians of various denominations may, and frequently do, work together on social projects, they may study the Scripture together, and they may ... pray together. But the moment attendance at the Lord's Table is suggested, up go the denominational barriers... I would make a strong plea that we do not exclude from the Lord's Table in our Church those who are undoubtedly sincere Christians. I cannot believe that to communicate together with our Lord should be regarded as the consummation, the final pinnacle, of the whole vast work of Reunion. Suppose it is the means and not the end. We might feel far more sharply the sin of our divisions and of our exclusiveness if we came humbly together to receive the Body and Blood of our Lord, and in that reception we might find such a quickening of our common devotion to Him that the divisions between us might be found not nearly so insuperable as we supposed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't bring back the past.
