Repeatedly, the light has shone forth in the darkness, held aloft by hands that perished in the destruction of the institution that failed. Christians tend to defend the institution of their own creation with tenacity. It is institutional Christianity that has often shackled the Church... Many of the missionary institutions of the Church are expendable. They should always be treated as expendable.  ... Leonard M. Outerbridge, The Lost Churches of China July 24, 1996 Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471  Men stand much upon the title of 'orthodox', by which is usually understood, not believing the doctrine of Christ or His apostles, but such opinions as are in vogue among such a party, such systems of divinity as have been compiled in haste by those whom we have in admiration; and whatever is not consonant to these little bodies of divinity, tho' possibly it agree well enough with the Word of God, is error and heresy; and whoever maintains it can hardly pass for a Christian among some angry and perverse people. I do not intend to plead for any error, but I would not have Christianity chiefly measured by matters of opinion. I know no such error and heresy as a wicked life... Of the two, I have more hopes of him that denies the divinity of Christ and lives otherwise soberly and righteously and godly in the world, than of the man who owns Christ to be the Son of God and lives like a child of the devil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men would be angels, angels would be gods. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50935]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men would be angels, angels would be gods.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15585]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be stirring as the time; be fire with fire. Threaten the threat'ner, and outface the brow  Of bragging horror. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53967]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be stirring as the time; be fire with fire. Threaten the threat'ner, and outface the brow  Of bragging horror.
