The Love Feast, which should have been the sign and symbol of perfect unity, has become a thing of divisions and class distinctions. And here there is something which only the newer translations reveal. In the older translations, it is said that to eat and drink at the sacrament without discerning the Lord's body is the way to judgment and not to salvation. But in the best Greek text, the word Lord's is not included. The sin is not to discern the body; that is to say, not to discern that the church is a body, not to be aware of the oneness of the church, not to be aware of the togetherness in which all its members should be joined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look back, and smile on perils past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Look back, and smile on perils past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The atoms become like a moth, seeking out the region of higher laser intensity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3427]]></link><description><![CDATA[The atoms become like a moth, seeking out the region of higher laser intensity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hope is the feeling that the feeling you have isn't permanent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19745]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hope is the feeling that the feeling you have isn't permanent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is not anything I know which hath done more mischief to Religion... than the disparaging of Reason, under pretense ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8300]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is not anything I know which hath done more mischief to Religion... than the disparaging of Reason, under pretense of respect and favour to it.

Its concern is with how Israel ought to think of God. To it, the existence of God is not an open question, nor His nature, nor the accessibility of knowledge of Him. God Himself has taken care of that He has made Himself known to His people, and their business is not to feel after Him if haply they may fumblingly find Him, but to hearken to Him as He declares to them what and who He is.
