Was there really an ordained ministry as early as that? We need not argue about whether, or how, St. Paul was ordained, but he certainly considered that he and his fellow workers had a special pastoral relation to their converts.... St. Paul was primarily a missionary, which in itself establishes a link with the Servant of the Lord. As a missionary, he was not working on his own, but was supported by a group of assistants without whose help he could never have carried on his work. We know the names of many of them... But there were many more whose names we do not know, sometimes referred to as "the brethren" (e.g., in I Cor. 16:11). This missionary group with St. Paul as its leader is the New Testament equivalent of the ordained ministry of today, and it is significant for us that St. Paul describes this group as carrying out in some sense the work of servants in the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Rogue that I am," he whispers to himself, "I lie, I cheat--do anything for pelf,  But who on earth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50164]]></link><description><![CDATA["Rogue that I am," he whispers to himself, "I lie, I cheat--do anything for pelf,  But who on earth can say I am not pious?"]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45529]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will have succeeded as a parent and you will have given your children the greatest of all blessings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we mixed up our defensive scheme a lot.

Clearly the more premature an infant is when he is born, the greater likelihood of complications. In fact, according to the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services National Center for Health Statistics, complications stemming from short gestation and low birth weight are the second leading causes of infant mortality in the United States. Ironically, the advanced medical technologies used in the United States tend to increase our infant mortality rate, not decrease it. In the United States, advanced technologies and procedures have made it more practical in recent years for medical professionals to attempt to save severely premature infants. Such attempts do not always succeed, adding to the rate of infant mortality.] Resuscitation is more likely to be attempted on extremely premature babies born in the United States than in many other countries, ... The extremely premature babies on whom resuscitation is unsuccessful are then counted as infant deaths, whereas they are counted as fetal deaths when resuscitation has not been attempted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We, African-Americans, need to be more conscious of Africa.
