Because of the role they have been willing to play, when they use the word God it is heard in a certain way. It is heard, often with deference and usually with courtesy, as a word referring to the linchpin of the era of Christendom (past) or as the totem of one of the tribal subcultures (irrelevant). The only way clergy can ever change the way in which the word they use is perceived is to refuse to play the role of antiquarian and medicine man in which the society casts them; but this is difficult, because it is what they are paid for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes he caught himself listening to the sound of his own voice.

He thought that in her eyes he would ascent to an angelical stature; and, as he attached the fervent nature of his companion more and more closely to him, he heard the strange impersonal voice which he recognised as his own, insisting on the soul's incurable lonliness.

He is the beginning, middle, and end of everything to us... There is nothing good, nothing holy, nothing beautiful, nothing joyous, which He is not to His servants. No one need be poor, because, if he chooses, he can have Jesus for his own property and possession. No one need be downcast, for Jesus is the joy of heaven, and it is His joy to enter into sorrowful hearts. We can exaggerate about many things; but we can never exaggerate our obligation to Jesus., or the compassionate abundance of the love of Jesus to us. All our lives long we might talk of Jesus, and yet we should never come to an end of the sweet things that night be said of Him. Eternity will not be long enough to learn all He is, or to praise Him for all He has done -- but then, that matters not; for we shall be always with Him, and we desire nothing more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4188]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Communism is a Christian heresy ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9083]]></link><description><![CDATA[Communism is a Christian heresy]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Contemplating this blighted and sinister career, the lesson is burnt in upon the conscience, that since Judas by transgression fell, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6892]]></link><description><![CDATA[Contemplating this blighted and sinister career, the lesson is burnt in upon the conscience, that since Judas by transgression fell, no place in the Church of Christ can render any man secure. And since, falling, he was openly exposed, none may flatter himself that the cause of Christ is bound up with his reputation, that the mischief must needs be averted which his downfall would entail, that Providence must needs avert from him the natural penalties for evil-doing. Though one was as the signet upon the Lord's hand, yet was he plucked thence. There is no security for any soul except where love and trust repose, upon the bosom of Christ. Now if this be true, and if sin and scandal may conceivably penetrate even the inmost circle of the chosen, how great an error it is to break, because of these offenses, the unity of the Church, and institute some new communion, purer far than the Churches of Corinth and Galatia, which were not abandoned but reformed, and more impenetrable to corruption than the little group of those who ate and drank with Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pain is temporary.
