There are Asian, West Indian, and Anglo-Saxon congregations worshiping and meeting close to each other. These groups meet at work and in school, but not always in church. If the church is middle-class and intellectual in the language of the services, in the music employed, in the life-style expected of Christians, in its leadership, and in the methods of presenting the gospel, then the whole atmosphere is such as to repel those who are not middle-class and intellectual. They feel out of place and unwanted, even if they are given a friendly greeting at the door. The life of the New Testament Church was evidence of the supernatural; God was in their midst. The power of Christ was a reality. The fellowship could not be explained in simple natural terms. A church divided on social and racial lines is not evidence for the supernatural, but for the simply human and social.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6306</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Old Year has gone.

The reaction to such a study may indeed prove to be conversion or open hostility, but it would at least mean the end of childish and ill-informed attacks upon what is supposed to be the Christian religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7403</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The price of greatness is responsibility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18273]]></link><description><![CDATA[The price of greatness is responsibility.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am quite unsatisfied by the distinctions between the oral and literate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33133]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am quite unsatisfied by the distinctions between the oral and literate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A jade eates as much as a good horse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49041]]></link><description><![CDATA[A jade eates as much as a good horse.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rice Krispies happens to be one of my favorite junk foods, just as I regard Michener as superior among junk ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3222]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rice Krispies happens to be one of my favorite junk foods, just as I regard Michener as superior among junk writers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whoever is deceived thereby is not wise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48655]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whoever is deceived thereby is not wise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was the start of a new generation of country stars.
