They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshippers meeting together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be were they to become 'unity' conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship. Social religion is perfected when private religion is purified. The body becomes stronger as its members become healthier. The whole church of God gains when the members that compose it begin to seek a better and a higher life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O thou who passest through our valleys in Thy strength, curb thy fierce steeds, allay the heat  That flames ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58254]]></link><description><![CDATA[O thou who passest through our valleys in Thy strength, curb thy fierce steeds, allay the heat  That flames from their large nostrils!

It is astonishing how a commandment so simple and distinct, and how a duty which you would have imagined would be eagerly greeted by the impulse of gratitude, of affection, and of compassion, was forgotten for so long a time, in the churches of the Reformation especially. Now we are accustomed to hear of mission work among the heathen nations, and to find that a great multitude of people are interested in it, and regard it with respect; but it was only at the commencement of the last century, and with great difficulty, [that] the attention of the Church was roused to this important duty; and even in the... Church of Scotland there were a number of ministers who thought that the state of heathenism was so utterly corrupt, and that there was so much to be done in our own country, that it was altogether a Utopian project to think of converting the idolaters, and that it was not our imperative duty to trouble ourselves with their wretched condition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The flower is the poetry of reproduction.
