The grosser manifestations of these sins -- egotism, exhibitionism, self-promotion -- are strangely tolerated in Christian leaders, even in circles of impeccable orthodoxy. They are so much in evidence as actually, for many people, to become identified with the gospel. I trust it is not a cynical observation to say that they appear these days to be a requisite for popularity in some sections of the Church visible. Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is a complex being; he makes the deserts bloom and lakes die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43832]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is a complex being; he makes the deserts bloom and lakes die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43832</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual rights.

[Continued tomorrow]  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 5, 1998  And let us be grateful beyond words for this: that God will not let us alone until we have learnt it and stand by His side. He troubles us, He brings His disturbing light back and back to us, showing us how coarse and heavy the dying self, seeking her own, is; how horrible it is that any feeling of unforgiveness, accepted and held on to, towards our brother, drives God from our side; how quickly we must do all we can to heal the separation, because we are out in the cold and the dark indeed, if divorced from that Love.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 6, 1998  Commemoration of Martyrs of Japan, 1597  Prayer is the expression of a good desire. The human heart is full of restless desires, and the prayers of men consist for the most part of the unsifted petitions which are urged by their varying passions. To desire what is right, and to desire it consistently, and passionately, is the first condition of true living; the desires can be corrected only by truth, the mind must apprehend God, and then it will say, "There is none upon earth that I desire beside Thee.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is now a broad consensus, that Israel will go ahead and build our borders to preserve Israel as a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29092]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is now a broad consensus, that Israel will go ahead and build our borders to preserve Israel as a democratic Jewish state.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nowher so besy a man as he ther was, And yet he semed bisier than he was. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62090]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nowher so besy a man as he ther was, And yet he semed bisier than he was.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62090</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These are counties targeted for consolidation.

Yet even then, we have not reached the centre. For when we worship, we are in God's presence, and it is what He says and does to us that is the all-important thing, not what we say and do toward Him. Since He is here and speaking to us, face to face, it is for us, in a hush of spirit, to listen for and to His voice, reproving counseling, encouraging, revealing His most blessed will for us; and, with diligence, to set about immediate obedience. This and this, upon which He has laid His hand, must go; and this and this to which He calls us must be at once begun. And here and now I start to it. That is the heart of worship, its very core and essence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The God who gave us life gave us liberty at the same time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24750]]></link><description><![CDATA[The God who gave us life gave us liberty at the same time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24750</guid></item></channel></rss>
