The various members belong organically to each other in Christ, and are to exhibit that harmony practically in their common life. The recognition of how they differ from each other, and are yet one, is to enrich their worship, inspire their ministry, and quicken their love. To divide the local church is... to witness to a divided Christ, or to a discipleship to lesser masters than Christ, such as Paul or Apollos. Both implications are equally unthinkable. There is no New Testament pattern of serving the one Christ, except in one local body, formed by the incorporation given in the one baptism, and the continued life sustained by breaking and sharing the one bread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marxists are people whose insides are torn up day after day because they want to rule the world and no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marxists are people whose insides are torn up day after day because they want to rule the world and no one will even publish their letter to the editor.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prudence in action avails more than wisdom in conception. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prudence in action avails more than wisdom in conception.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They say they don't know when but a day is gonna come.
