It is rather to return to Christ not a figure of the imagination, but the Christ of the Scriptures and to listen to His voice in obedience, to discover afresh what is the Truth. All unpretentious Bible study, every effort to disseminate a true scriptural theology, and every earnest prayer is part of the task of promoting that unity which is truly Christian. We must not envisage Christian Unity as consisting of faroff and doubtful schemes, but as something very nigh which affects us all. If we are really to seek for Christian Unity, we must be prepared to pay the cost. For it must be based upon love, and love is always costly. It will never be attained until there is "far more humility, far more thought, far more self-sacrifice, and far more prayer, than there is at present." (Streeter) If we are right in the conclusion that such disunion as has been sinful in the history of the Church has been due to pride, selfassertion, and contempt for God's Word and commandment, then it follows that the way to the unity which God wills [is] through humility, love of the brethren, and obedience to the Divine Revelation. When Christians pray to be shown where they have been wrong, proud, complaisant, or censorious, and to be put right; when they meet for common counsel and study of the Word, in the spirit of obedience and prepared to subject their individual opinions to the guidance of the Spirit; where the strong are willing to foster and strengthen the weak; and where all are seeking the common good rather than their own sectional interests: then the pathway to unity will become plain, and God will grant His blessing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Talk of nothing but business, and dispatch that business quickly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5012]]></link><description><![CDATA[Talk of nothing but business, and dispatch that business quickly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it was a real advantage having tough judges tonight because we're heading into the states.

What would it be to taste at the fountain-head that stream of which even these lower reaches prove so intoxicating? Yet that, I believe, is what lies before us. As St. Augustine said, the rapture of the saved soul will "flow over" into the glorified body. In the light of our present specialized and depraved appetites, we cannot imagine this [torrent of pleasure], and I warn everyone most seriously not to try. But it must be mentioned, to drive out thoughts even more misleading--thoughts that what is saved is a mere ghost, or that the risen body lives in numb insensibility. The body is made for the Lord, and these dismal fancies are wide of the mark.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We neglect those things which are under our very eyes, and heedless of things within our grasp, pursue those which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50914]]></link><description><![CDATA[We neglect those things which are under our very eyes, and heedless of things within our grasp, pursue those which are afar off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He laughs best who laughs last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24215]]></link><description><![CDATA[He laughs best who laughs last.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. -John Plomp. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45510]]></link><description><![CDATA[You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. -John Plomp.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Teacher, tender comrade, wife, A fellow-farer true through life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61570]]></link><description><![CDATA[Teacher, tender comrade, wife, A fellow-farer true through life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61570</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poverty is the schoolmaster of character. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29526]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poverty is the schoolmaster of character.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56745]]></link><description><![CDATA[The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/896]]></link><description><![CDATA[To me the charm of an encyclopedia is that it knows and I needn't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art imitates nature, and necessity is the mother of invention. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art imitates nature, and necessity is the mother of invention.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May all that have life be delivered from suffering.Buddhist prayer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20932]]></link><description><![CDATA[May all that have life be delivered from suffering.Buddhist prayer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20932</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any story about revenge is ultimately a story about forgiveness, redemption, or the futility of revenge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65094]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any story about revenge is ultimately a story about forgiveness, redemption, or the futility of revenge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We read not that Christ ever exercised force but once;
