Many honest Christian people experience the shock of a revelation when they are brought to realize that their membership of the Church constitutes a loyalty prior to their loyalty to the nation to which they belong. Patriotism is one of the powerful underground pseudo-religions of to-day, not merely nationalism. The fundamental notion that the Christians are a "peculiar people" that never is identical, or even can be, with a people in the biological, national sense of the word, is largely asleep.

There is no feeble unconcern and indiscriminateness there, and neither is there any excited hatred of the creed, the doctrine, or the Church, which you feel wholly wrong.

You believe and yet you have no wish to persecute.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one would talk much in society, if he knew how often he misunderstands others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9047]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one would talk much in society, if he knew how often he misunderstands others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who will grieve for this woman?
