The profession of a clergyman is a holy profession, because it is a ministration in holy things, an attendance at the alter.

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its root in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride, these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Punishment follows close on the heels of crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50316]]></link><description><![CDATA[Punishment follows close on the heels of crime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The minute a person whose word means a great deal to others dare to take the open-hearted and courageous way, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41594]]></link><description><![CDATA[The minute a person whose word means a great deal to others dare to take the open-hearted and courageous way, many others follow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When men have gone so far as to talk as though their idols have come to life, it is time ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53647]]></link><description><![CDATA[When men have gone so far as to talk as though their idols have come to life, it is time that someone broke them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The welfare state is not really about the welfare of the masses.

Clearly the more premature an infant is when he is born, the greater likelihood of complications. In fact, according to the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services National Center for Health Statistics, complications stemming from short gestation and low birth weight are the second leading causes of infant mortality in the United States. Ironically, the advanced medical technologies used in the United States tend to increase our infant mortality rate, not decrease it. In the United States, advanced technologies and procedures have made it more practical in recent years for medical professionals to attempt to save severely premature infants. Such attempts do not always succeed, adding to the rate of infant mortality.] Resuscitation is more likely to be attempted on extremely premature babies born in the United States than in many other countries, ... The extremely premature babies on whom resuscitation is unsuccessful are then counted as infant deaths, whereas they are counted as fetal deaths when resuscitation has not been attempted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's just streamlining the operation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34021]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's just streamlining the operation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mockery is the weapon of those who have no other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54231]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mockery is the weapon of those who have no other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54231</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm looking forward to meeting him next week at training camp.

Life has no otherdiscipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept lifeunquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run awayfrom, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in theend.

The Church of the Lord Jesus should be a group of those who are redeemed and bound together on the basis of true doctrine. But subsequently they should show together a substantial "sociological healing" of the breaches between men, which have come about because of... man's sin. The Christian sociological position is that the sociological problems which we find... are a result of the separation that has come between men because of sin.
