If that theory is accepted, we must abandon the notion that democratic government can be the direct expression of the will of the people. We must abandon the notion that the people govern. Instead we must adopt the theory that, by their occasional mobilizations as a majority, people support or oppose the individuals who actually govern. We must say that the popular will does not direct continuously but that it intervenes occasionally.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[However important it may be to have a creed that is sound, or an emotion that is warm, the Christian ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6180]]></link><description><![CDATA[However important it may be to have a creed that is sound, or an emotion that is warm, the Christian life according to the Gospels is primarily determined by the direction of the will, the fixing of the desire, the habit of obedience, the faculty of decision. If you are determined in your purpose, if you have the will to do the Will, then with half a creed and less than half a pious ecstasy, you are at least in the line of the purpose of Jesus Christ; and as you will to do His will, may come some day to know the teaching.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll always be Number 1 to myself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57572]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll always be Number 1 to myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But sometimes you have to do what you have to do, ...

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.

St. Polycarp, Letter to the Philippians February 24, 2000  In church government... our primary concern is to reflect the nature of God. Christ became man in order that He might redeem men from their fallen state, from their selfishness and self-isolating divisions from God and from each other; so that, gathered together in one in Him, man may offer to God that likeness to Himself in love for which he was created. Church government is primarily concerned with this: with worship, with the drawing of the whole life of the whole world into this reflection of the nature of God. It is secondly -- and only secondly -- concerned with the quarrels and peccadilloes of those who are not, as a matter of fact, imitating God's nature very faithfully.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money, the root of all evil...but the cure for all sadness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money, the root of all evil...but the cure for all sadness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15829</guid></item></channel></rss>
