Many preachers have made use of this fact to point out helpful spiritual implications; and yet, by New Testament times, the word carried no such denotation as "called out." It was simply the word for "assembly" or "congregation." It so happened that in the Greek city-states an assembly of the citizenry resulted from the people being called out of their city and summoned from their farms to participate in such gatherings. Even though the etymology of the word remains, its real meaning is just "assembly," and a Greek-speaking person of New Testament times would be no more inclined to understand ekklesia in its original etymological value of "called out" than we today would recognize "God be with you" in "good-by," which, as we may learn from the dictionary, was derived from the longer phrase.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deep down even the most hardened criminal is starving for the same thing that motivates the innocent baby: Love and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/275]]></link><description><![CDATA[Deep down even the most hardened criminal is starving for the same thing that motivates the innocent baby: Love and acceptance]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure than to take ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54289]]></link><description><![CDATA[Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hope, he called, belief In God,--work, worship . . . therefore let us pray! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hope, he called, belief In God,--work, worship . . . therefore let us pray!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But leave me to my beer!
