It seems a truly terrible thing that this Sacred Appointment, which was surely meant to unite, in actual practice divides Christians more sharply than any other part of their worship. Christians of various denominations may, and frequently do, work together on social projects, they may study the Scripture together, and they may ... pray together. But the moment attendance at the Lord's Table is suggested, up go the denominational barriers... I would make a strong plea that we do not exclude from the Lord's Table in our Church those who are undoubtedly sincere Christians. I cannot believe that to communicate together with our Lord should be regarded as the consummation, the final pinnacle, of the whole vast work of Reunion. Suppose it is the means and not the end. We might feel far more sharply the sin of our divisions and of our exclusiveness if we came humbly together to receive the Body and Blood of our Lord, and in that reception we might find such a quickening of our common devotion to Him that the divisions between us might be found not nearly so insuperable as we supposed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wise in heart are called discerning,    and pleasant words promote instruction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33435]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wise in heart are called discerning,    and pleasant words promote instruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Journalists prize independence - not teamwork, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39845]]></link><description><![CDATA[Journalists prize independence - not teamwork,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But given the initiatives we've committed ourselves to, it's going to be very difficult, even if we get more money ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38475]]></link><description><![CDATA[But given the initiatives we've committed ourselves to, it's going to be very difficult, even if we get more money than the county initially earmarked.

Abraham, Moses, and David were valiant believers, but compared to Jesus they were timid souls. Consider the human disappointments Jesus endured: rejected in his home town, harassed and persecuted by the religious leaders of his nation, misunderstood by his own family, betrayed with a kiss and abandoned by all his followers. Yet through it all Jesus never complained or rebelled against God; he trusted God even on the cross. Psalm 34 sets forth Jesus' pioneering discovery of God's faithfulness and delivering power. Thus Jesus was "delivered from all his fears" (v 4), "saved ... out of all his troubles" (v 6), "delivered out of all his afflictions" (v 19).  Certainly Jesus is our primary teacher and example in trusting God. If David could teach his followers to trust in God, how much more Jesus. As we see the steadfast faith of our Lord through weariness, disappointment, rejection, and even death on a cross, we cannot but be encouraged to believe that God can deliver us through our small trials. That is why we should run the race set before us looking unto Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[cautiously optimistic about the plan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40419]]></link><description><![CDATA[cautiously optimistic about the plan.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a proof of a well-trained mind, to rejoice in what is good and to grieve at the opposite. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17848]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a proof of a well-trained mind, to rejoice in what is good and to grieve at the opposite. [Lat., Ergo hoc proprium est animi bene constituti, et laetari bonis rebus, et dolere contrariis.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After finding no qualified candidates for the position of principal, the school board is extremely pleased to announce the appointment ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19296]]></link><description><![CDATA[After finding no qualified candidates for the position of principal, the school board is extremely pleased to announce the appointment of David Steele to the post.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are remembered for the rules you break. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63336]]></link><description><![CDATA[You are remembered for the rules you break.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to get behind any more.

The great creative acts and significant turning-points were recognized, either by the Church or by its historian, as determined by the Spirit. The Spirit confirmed and preserved the community from the outset, by the descent at Pentecost (Acts 2:4). The extension of the Gospel beyond Judea and the first mission to the Gentiles were commanded and approved by the Spirit (Acts 8:29, 10:19, 44, 13:2, 4). Paul, on his journeys, was led by the Spirit (Acts 16:6, 7). He himself was especially conscious that his whole ministry was inspired by the Holy Ghost (Rom. 15:18,19). All the apostles were conspicuously men of the Spirit.
