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[Men say, "How are we to act, what are we to teach our children, now that we are no longer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8533]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men say, "How are we to act, what are we to teach our children, now that we are no longer Christians?" You see, gentlemen, how I would answer that question. You are deceived in thinking that the morality of your father was based on Christianity. On the contrary, Christianity presupposed it. That morality stands exactly where it did; its basis has not been withdrawn, for, in a sense, it never had a basis. The ultimate ethical injunctions have always been premises, never conclusions. Kant was perfectly right on that point at least, the imperative is categorical. Unless the ethical is assumed from the outset, no argument will bring you to it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The problem is not that the churches are filled with empty pews, but that the pews are filled with empty ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8312]]></link><description><![CDATA[The problem is not that the churches are filled with empty pews, but that the pews are filled with empty people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8312</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trying to be as positive as he could about it, he said to me, 'I have to tell you, Kate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39535]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trying to be as positive as he could about it, he said to me, 'I have to tell you, Kate ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ it was a Harrods bag'.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some debts are fun when you are acquiring them, but none are fun when you set about retiring them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11498]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some debts are fun when you are acquiring them, but none are fun when you set about retiring them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One important key to success is self-confidence.
