Whatever intelligent creature lives not under this rule of love is so far fallen from the order of his creation, and is, till he returns to this eternal law of love, an apostate from God and incapable of the kingdom of Heaven. Now, if God is alone to be loved for Himself, then no creature is to be loved for itself; and so all self-love in every creature is absolutely condemned. And if all created beings are only to be loved in and for God, then my neighbour is to be loved as I love myself, and I am only to love myself as I love my neighbour or any other created being that is, only in and for God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Liberality consists less in giving a great deal than in gifts well-timed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17268]]></link><description><![CDATA[Liberality consists less in giving a great deal than in gifts well-timed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Commemoration of Helena, Protector of the Faith, 330  The kingdom of heaven is not come even when ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8159]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Commemoration of Helena, Protector of the Faith, 330  The kingdom of heaven is not come even when God's will is our law; it is fully come when God's will is our will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is said that gifts persuade even the gods. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17435]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is said that gifts persuade even the gods.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25725]]></link><description><![CDATA[In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Employ thy time well, if thou meanest to gain leisure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24621]]></link><description><![CDATA[Employ thy time well, if thou meanest to gain leisure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24621</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859  [Christ] is the breathing forth of the heart, life and spirit of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7738]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859  [Christ] is the breathing forth of the heart, life and spirit of God into all the dead race of Adam.

Ecclesia is a Greek word with a splendid history. It was used in the old free commonwealths of Greece for the general assembly of all free citizens, by which their common life was governed. When political liberty went, the name still survived in the restricted municipal self-government which the Roman State allowed. It was taken over by the brotherhoods and guilds which in some measure superseded the old political associations. Among the Jews who spoke Greek, this word seemed the appropriate one to describe the commonwealth of Israel as ruled by God -- the historical Theocracy. Our translation of it is "Church". That word, however, has undergone such transformations of meaning that it is often doubtful in what sense it is being used. Perhaps for ecclesia we may use the word -- simpler, more general, and certainly nearest to its original meaning -- "commonwealth".
