It lay in the relationship he held with God. We know the familiar idea of Jesus' oneness with God: only we deal with it too much as a doctrine of the Church, not as an element in Jesus' own experience. If we never find it in reality, in life, we cannot reveal the true Christ-like character at all -- we will always be trying earnestly to be something, but on too superficial and obvious a plane.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn June 28, 1996 Feast of Irenêus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  The Church exists, and does not depend for its existence upon our definition of it: it exists wherever God in His sovereign freedom calls it into being by calling his own into the fellowship of His Son. And it exists solely by His mercy. God shuts up and will shut up every way except the way of faith which simply accepts His mercy as mercy. To that end, He is free to break off unbelieving branches, to graft in wild slips, and to call "No people" His people. And if, at the end, those who have preserved through all the centuries the visible "marks" of the Church find themselves at the same board with some strange and uncouth late-comers on the ecclesiastical scene, may we not fancy that they will hear Him say -- would it not be so like him to say -- "It is my will to give unto these last even as unto thee"? Final judgement belongs to God, and we have to beware of judging before the time. I think that if we refuse fellowship in Christ to any body of men and women who accept Jesus as Lord and show the fruits of His Spirit in their corporate life, we do so at our peril. It behooves us, therefore, to receive one another as Christ has received us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65080]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  The church has severely under-estimated the fundamental antagonism between Christianity and contemporary ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6435]]></link><description><![CDATA[THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  The church has severely under-estimated the fundamental antagonism between Christianity and contemporary neo-pagan values.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry should... should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46807]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poetry should... should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hath not thy rose a canker, Somerset? Hath not thy rose a thorn, Plantagenet? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51309]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hath not thy rose a canker, Somerset? Hath not thy rose a thorn, Plantagenet?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great Britain and the United States are nations separated by a common language. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24017]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great Britain and the United States are nations separated by a common language.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like Dead Sea fruit that tempts the eye, But turns to ashes on the lips! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2947]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like Dead Sea fruit that tempts the eye, But turns to ashes on the lips!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2947</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have a plan for an ice arena and I want to let the public know about it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37859]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have a plan for an ice arena and I want to let the public know about it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10513]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can picture guys sitting out in their yard, working in their yard, bending over to plant some trees or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37318]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can picture guys sitting out in their yard, working in their yard, bending over to plant some trees or something, and half their crack shows, ...

If you blow too hard and too fast, the balloon pops and likewise the relationship breaks. But if you take things slowly and let the balloon of love stretch on its own, it grows into a huge, prosperous balloon, full of love. Also, if you don't push the relationship at all, or at least hold it at the same level it was at, the air will flow out of the balloon, deflating it, and your love will shrivel up and become flat & lifeless. So when you are in love, push the relationship forward slowly and gently and the balloon will grow comfortably into a strong, immense love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wisest have the most authority ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3483]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wisest have the most authority]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us make an honourable retreat. -As You Like It.
