All we can have by ourselves is a club or a debating society; and our only hope, left to ourselves, is to win as many members for our own club and away from other clubs as we can. And whatever this is, it is not Mission. Mission belongs to God. The Mission was His from the beginning; it is His; it will always be His.

And the most terrible judgment on the Church comes when God leaves us to our own devices because He is tired of waiting for our obedience -- leaves us to be the domestic chaplains to a comfortable secular world -- and goes Himself into the wilderness of human need and injustice and pain. This judgment does come on churches and nations, when they forget that God is in command, that He does the choosing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In naked beauty more adorned More lovely than Pandora. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2750]]></link><description><![CDATA[In naked beauty more adorned More lovely than Pandora.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11126]]></link><description><![CDATA[Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man can mortgage his injustice as a pawn for his fidelity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15624]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man can mortgage his injustice as a pawn for his fidelity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My own recipe for world peace is a little bit of land for everyone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23982]]></link><description><![CDATA[My own recipe for world peace is a little bit of land for everyone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I cannot brag of knowing something, then I brag of not knowing it; at any rate, brag. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4825]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I cannot brag of knowing something, then I brag of not knowing it; at any rate, brag.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4825</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Monica, Mother of Augustine of Hippo, 387  Let the Gospels speak.
