Whether this deity be true or false, the temple as such becomes a meeting-place for people who desire to worship as they understand it. For the ancient Hebrews, the Temple in Jerusalem was the house of God, the place where God dwelt symbolically, and met with people who came to worship. Jesus called it "My Father's house." For the Christian, the word 'church' has become the symbol for the edifice built and dedicated for the worship of God. But unless it is so dedicated and so used, it may be considered only a mere building or club-house. However beautiful its design and architecture, a church is a true temple only as it is frequented by God's people who come to "worship Him in spirit and in truth," and who there hold forth "the word of life." (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6834</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52552]]></link><description><![CDATA[And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We two parted In silence and tears,  Half broken-hearted   To sever for years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45560]]></link><description><![CDATA[We two parted In silence and tears,  Half broken-hearted   To sever for years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are friends and I do like to pass the day with you in serious and inconsequential chatter.

The prophets were men called by God to serve as His messengers to a stubborn and unheeding people. They were always careful to point out that they were not voicing their own wisdom. Their warnings, entreaties, and promises were always prefaced by the awesome proclamation: "Thus says the Lord..." When the prophets did engage in prognostication, they usually were concerned with events which were fairly close at hand, such as the Assyrian conquest of Israel and the Babylonian conquest of Judah (both of which they foretold with deadly accuracy). But occasionally a prophet's vision ranged farther into the future, to the day when God would enter into a new covenant with his rebellious children. The hope of reconciliation was often linked with the coming of a very particular person, a Messiah or Savior.  What made the prophets so sure that they had a right--nay, a duty, to speak in the name of God? It is clear from their writings that they were not megalomaniacs who confused their own thoughts with the voice of God. On the contrary, they were humble men, awe-stricken by the responsibilities thrust upon them... The prophets minced no words in their indictments of the sins of Israel and Judah, and they trod especially hard on the toes of the rich, the powerful, and the pious. The Establishment responded then as some church members are wont to respond now when a preacher speaks out on controversial public issues: "One should not preach of such things!" (Micah 2:6).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Progress has not followed a straight ascending line, but a spiral with rhythms of progress and retrogression, of evolution and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48365]]></link><description><![CDATA[Progress has not followed a straight ascending line, but a spiral with rhythms of progress and retrogression, of evolution and dissolution.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do not usually look for allies when we love.

He must make the different parts of the scheme fit into each other; his dexterity is shown, not in detecting facts, but in cutting them square... I hope you will not forget that the Bible is the history of God's acts to men, not of men's thoughts about God. It begins from Him.
