If that theory is accepted, we must abandon the notion that democratic government can be the direct expression of the will of the people. We must abandon the notion that the people govern. Instead we must adopt the theory that, by their occasional mobilizations as a majority, people support or oppose the individuals who actually govern. We must say that the popular will does not direct continuously but that it intervenes occasionally.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Councell breakes not the head. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49183]]></link><description><![CDATA[Councell breakes not the head.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Its the little things that matter, that add up in the end, with the priceless thrilling magic found only in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46253]]></link><description><![CDATA[Its the little things that matter, that add up in the end, with the priceless thrilling magic found only in a friend.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46253</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those things that hurt, instruct. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18316]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those things that hurt, instruct.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16810]]></link><description><![CDATA[To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any other station or capacity in social life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When desperate ills demand a speedy cure, Distrust is cowardice, and prudence folly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12575]]></link><description><![CDATA[When desperate ills demand a speedy cure, Distrust is cowardice, and prudence folly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not expressed in fancy; rich, not gaudy,  For the apparel ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2758]]></link><description><![CDATA[Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not expressed in fancy; rich, not gaudy,  For the apparel oft proclaims the man,   And they in France of the best rank and station    Are of a most select and generous chief in that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2758</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a short series on prayer:   We know that the wind blows; why should we not know that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8222]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series on prayer:   We know that the wind blows; why should we not know that God answers prayer? I reply, What if God does not care to have you know it at second-hand? What if there would be no good in that? There is some testimony on record, and perhaps there might be much more were it not that, having to do with things so immediately personal, and generally so delicate, answers to prayer would naturally not often be talked about; but no testimony concerning the thing can well be conclusive; for, like a reported miracle, there is always some way to daff it; and besides, the conviction to be got that way is of little value: it avails nothing to know the thing by the best of evidence... `But if God is so good as you represent Him, and if He knows all that we need, and better far than we do ourselves, why should it be necessary to ask Him for anything?" In answer, What if He knows prayer to be the thing we need first and most? What if the main object in God's idea of prayer be the supplying of our great, our endless need -- the need of Himself?

The invisible church, composed of all Spirit-baptized persons, is indefectible, it cannot be ruined; against it "the gates of Hades shall not prevail." The local assembly may indeed by sadly ruined; but it can be restored, as, by the grace of God, has been seen times without number -- at Corinth, for example. The only other institution in question is that agglomeration of sects that is called "Christendom." But that is unrecognized by the New Testament -- it is not of God at all: and that it is "in ruins" is no matter for our regret.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The biggest thing is the willingness for everyone to buy in and do their roles.

The great creative acts and significant turning-points were recognized, either by the Church or by its historian, as determined by the Spirit. The Spirit confirmed and preserved the community from the outset, by the descent at Pentecost (Acts 2:4). The extension of the Gospel beyond Judea and the first mission to the Gentiles were commanded and approved by the Spirit (Acts 8:29, 10:19, 44, 13:2, 4). Paul, on his journeys, was led by the Spirit (Acts 16:6, 7). He himself was especially conscious that his whole ministry was inspired by the Holy Ghost (Rom. 15:18,19). All the apostles were conspicuously men of the Spirit.
