This supposition rests upon a misunderstanding of what is meant by "the Kingdom of God"... The Kingdom itself is not something to be "furthered" or "built" by men's efforts. It is something which we are invited to recognize as already present, after a manner, in the life and work of Jesus. It is something to be inherited or entered into by those who believe. The task of the Church, in other words, is not to set the stage for a better world than this one but to draw the curtain from it, to reveal something that is already there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If honor be your clothing, the suit will last a lifetime; but if clothing be your honor, it will soon ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12965]]></link><description><![CDATA[If honor be your clothing, the suit will last a lifetime; but if clothing be your honor, it will soon be worn threadbare.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we can stop the egg eating by macho Mexicans, we can save thousands of turtles.

Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He too serves a certain purpose who only stands and cheers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47233]]></link><description><![CDATA[He too serves a certain purpose who only stands and cheers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Circumstances alter cases. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8711]]></link><description><![CDATA[Circumstances alter cases.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8711</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take good hold of instruction and don't let her go, keep her for she is your life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1380]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take good hold of instruction and don't let her go, keep her for she is your life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1380</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fine quotation is a diamond in the hand of a man of wit and a pebble in the hand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52828]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fine quotation is a diamond in the hand of a man of wit and a pebble in the hand of a fool.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money doesn't sleep. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42986]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money doesn't sleep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Winning is the science of being totally prepared. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35552]]></link><description><![CDATA[Winning is the science of being totally prepared.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be polite; write diplomatically; even in a declaration of war one observes the rules of politeness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12314]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be polite; write diplomatically; even in a declaration of war one observes the rules of politeness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want more than just a ballpark.
