Where we find these words used we are being reminded of the intimate union with Christ which makes the Christian life an eternal life lived in the midst of time. The deeper shade of meaning would often be conveyed to our minds if we translated the phrase "in communion with Christ". But, Paul's Christ mysticism is saved from the introverted individualism of many forms of mysticism by his insistence that communion with Christ is also communion with all who are Christ's.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marry your daughters betimes, lest they marry themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49624]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marry your daughters betimes, lest they marry themselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether shall the Oxe goe, where he shall not labour? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50087]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether shall the Oxe goe, where he shall not labour?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead.
