Frederick Ward Kates  September 2, 2000 Commemoration of Martyrs of Papua New Guinea, 1942   The apostles were moved, not so much by an intellectual apprehension, as by a spiritual illumination. They met men, and the need of those men whom they met cried aloud to them. Their own desire for the revelation of the glory of Jesus in the salvation of men went out towards those whom they met, and was immediately answered by the recognition of the need of those whom they met for Jesus Christ.   ... Roland Allen, Pentecost and the World  ... Also see comments on this book in Bookworms September 3, 2000 Feast of Gregory the Great, Bishop of Rome, Teacher, 604   The task is not, in essence, the securing of uniformity, or cooperation, or Church reunion, or any of the external forms, through which nevertheless the unity may be manifested. Within the wide bounds of the Christian Church there is abundant scope for the multiplicity of races, languages, and social conditions; room also for separate organizations with different traditions of faith and order, and much diversity of operation. But there is no room for strife or hostility, for pride or selfassertion, for exclusiveness or unkind judgments, nor for that kind of independence which leads men to ignore their fellowship with the great company of believers, the communion of saints. These things are contrary to the revealed will of God, and should be made at once to cease. As these disappear, the outward manifestation of unity will come in such ways as the Spirit of God shall guide.   ... G. T. Manley, Christian Unity  September 4, 2000 Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650   If all you have found [in Christianity] is advantage, whether it is fun or profit or security, then you haven't started following Him yet. His way is the way of the Cross. The world can be very hard on those it hates. If it is not hard on you, perhaps it sees nothing in you to hate. But then it doesn't see Jesus in you, for it hates Jesus with an undying hatred. While your way is still all fun, all easy, all jolly, it is only your way: when you turn from it to follow His way, it will cost. It may cost you everything you have. That is what it cost Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Leo the Great, Bishop of Rome, 461  Perhaps there cannot be a better way of judging of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7116]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Leo the Great, Bishop of Rome, 461  Perhaps there cannot be a better way of judging of what manner of spirit we are of, than to see whether the actions of our life are such as we may safely commend them to God in our prayers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're taking action to protect the city up to 52 feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29943]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're taking action to protect the city up to 52 feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29943</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14293]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14293</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How many things served us yesterday for articles of faith, which to-day are fables to us! [Fr., Combien de choses ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14981]]></link><description><![CDATA[How many things served us yesterday for articles of faith, which to-day are fables to us! [Fr., Combien de choses nous servoient heir d'articles de foy, qui nous sont fables aujourd'hui!]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14981</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Right--that will do for the marines. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44015]]></link><description><![CDATA[Right--that will do for the marines.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44015</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a fine thing to establish one's own religion in one's heart, not to be dependent on tradition and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53485]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a fine thing to establish one's own religion in one's heart, not to be dependent on tradition and second-hand ideals.

The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus. The greatest psychological insight, ability, and experience cannot grasp this one thing: what sin is. Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature made every fop to plague his brother, Just as one beauty mortifies another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16424]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature made every fop to plague his brother, Just as one beauty mortifies another.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16424</guid></item></channel></rss>
