Genuine spiritual authority is to be found only where the ministry of hearing, helping, bearing, and proclaiming is carried out. Every cult of personality that emphasizes the distinguished qualities, virtues, and talents of another person, even though these be of an altogether spiritual nature, is worldly and has no place in the Christian community; indeed, it poisons the Christian community...   Genuine authority realizes that it can exist only in the service of Him who alone has authority... The Church does not need brilliant personalities but faithful servants of Jesus and the brethren...   Pastoral authority can be attained only by the servant of Jesus who seeks no power of his own, who himself is a brother among brothers to the authority of the Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People's reactions can be surprising but, if you have overwhelming news, I suppose the only thing you can do is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42538]]></link><description><![CDATA[People's reactions can be surprising but, if you have overwhelming news, I suppose the only thing you can do is just look, because you're stunned.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If these few meters are not a problem, as they say, why don't they go back to the June 4, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29889]]></link><description><![CDATA[If these few meters are not a problem, as they say, why don't they go back to the June 4, 1967, line?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The feeling of inferiority rules the mental life and can be clearly recognized in the sense of incompleteness and un-fulfillment, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20796]]></link><description><![CDATA[The feeling of inferiority rules the mental life and can be clearly recognized in the sense of incompleteness and un-fulfillment, and in the uninterrupted struggle both of individuals and humanity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship.
