What distinguishes the handling of these values in the churches is mainly the heavier dosage of religious vocabulary involved... Another way of putting this is to say that the churches operate with secular values while the secular institutions are permeated with religious terminology... An objective observer is hard put to tell the difference (at least in terms of values affirmed) between the church members and those who maintain an 'unchurched' status. Usually the most that can be said is that the church members hold the same values as everybody else, but with more emphatic solemnity. Thus, church membership in no way means adherence to a set of values at variance with those of the general society; rather, it means a stronger and more explicitly religious affirmation of the same values held by the community at large.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's unfortunate these members put the party in this situation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30952]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's unfortunate these members put the party in this situation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't stay in bed, unless you can make money in bed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56624]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't stay in bed, unless you can make money in bed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The dust of some is Irish earth, Among their own they rest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23045]]></link><description><![CDATA[The dust of some is Irish earth, Among their own they rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone taken as an individual, is tolerably sensible and reasonable- as a member of a crowd, he at once becomes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56933]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone taken as an individual, is tolerably sensible and reasonable- as a member of a crowd, he at once becomes a blockhead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That appearance on earth as an individual is the crisis in the history both of Christ Himself and of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7717]]></link><description><![CDATA[That appearance on earth as an individual is the crisis in the history both of Christ Himself and of the humanity He saves and leads. The ministry of Jesus, therefore, culminating in His death, is essential to Paul's whole thought. If in certain aspects of his theology it is the death that bulks most largely -- because it seemed to him to be the purest and most moving expression of what the whole life meant -- he is quite aware that the ethical impulse given by the example and teaching of Jesus is of the very stuff of the Christian life. He alludes to the Gospel story but sparingly, but those who study his teaching most closely become aware that he is himself acting and speaking all through under the impulse of the life and teaching of Jesus. If he refuses to "know Christ after the flesh," it means that he will not risk a harking back to the temporary conditions of the Galilean ministry when the Spirit of Christ is clearly leading out into new fields. The issues of that ministry have been gathered up in the new experience of "Christ in me", and that experience gives a living Christ, who leads ever onward those who will adventure with Him, and not a prophet of the past, whose words might pass into a dead tradition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7717</guid></item></channel></rss>
