It lay in the relationship he held with God. We know the familiar idea of Jesus' oneness with God: only we deal with it too much as a doctrine of the Church, not as an element in Jesus' own experience. If we never find it in reality, in life, we cannot reveal the true Christ-like character at all -- we will always be trying earnestly to be something, but on too superficial and obvious a plane.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn June 28, 1996 Feast of Irenêus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  The Church exists, and does not depend for its existence upon our definition of it: it exists wherever God in His sovereign freedom calls it into being by calling his own into the fellowship of His Son. And it exists solely by His mercy. God shuts up and will shut up every way except the way of faith which simply accepts His mercy as mercy. To that end, He is free to break off unbelieving branches, to graft in wild slips, and to call "No people" His people. And if, at the end, those who have preserved through all the centuries the visible "marks" of the Church find themselves at the same board with some strange and uncouth late-comers on the ecclesiastical scene, may we not fancy that they will hear Him say -- would it not be so like him to say -- "It is my will to give unto these last even as unto thee"? Final judgement belongs to God, and we have to beware of judging before the time. I think that if we refuse fellowship in Christ to any body of men and women who accept Jesus as Lord and show the fruits of His Spirit in their corporate life, we do so at our peril. It behooves us, therefore, to receive one another as Christ has received us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6898</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For if you love those who love you, what reward have you?

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[Truth makes many appeals, not the least of which is its power to shock. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63059]]></link><description><![CDATA[Truth makes many appeals, not the least of which is its power to shock.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63059</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I met a preacher there I knew, and said, Ill and overworked, how fare you in this scene?  Bravely! ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48066]]></link><description><![CDATA[I met a preacher there I knew, and said, Ill and overworked, how fare you in this scene?  Bravely! said he; for I of late have been   Much cheered with thoughts of Christ, the living bread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48066</guid></item></channel></rss>
