In a subtle way, talking about something becomes an excuse for not doing it. This new bolt-hole of the conference and study group is not confined to the local congregation. It is a painful fact of life in the central structures of the churches. We have a welter of reports, commissions, surveys, liaison bodies, and so on. They have the appearance of progressive thinking and readiness to face change, combined with the function of being delaying devices. They are the sacraments of current Christianity, and its dilemma. Outreach is a move from power structures to meekness structures, and, in spite of the fact that Christians believe that it is the meek who shall inherit the earth, they show (as in the ecumenical movement) a distinct reluctance to relinquish power-structure thinking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The monuments of wit survive the monuments of power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52372]]></link><description><![CDATA[The monuments of wit survive the monuments of power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.

Christians who really have life in Christ cannot exist within such a corpse and will at last have to come out of it. But in almost all cases, those who have come out of dead institutions want to have in their place another institution or other rituals and ceremonies, only repeating the same error. Instead of turning to Christ Himself as their center, they again seek to find fellowship and spiritual security on the very same basis that failed, not realizing that it is the institution that is killing, instead of producing, life in Christ.

The Lion agreed to assist the Wild Ass with his strength, while the Wild Ass gave the Lion the benefit of his greater speed. When they had taken as many beasts as their necessities required, the Lion undertook to distribute the prey, and for this purpose divided it into three shares. I will take the first share, he said, because I am King: and the second share, as a partner with you in the chase: and the third share (believe me) will be a source of great evil to you, unless you willingly resign it to me, and set off as fast as you can. Might makes right.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Studies serve for delight, for ornaments, and for ability. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1437]]></link><description><![CDATA[Studies serve for delight, for ornaments, and for ability.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had some personal reservations about, 'Can I do the job?'
