Surely that is not wholly true. It certainly must help us if we recognize that it is the presence of the Holy Spirit which creates a unity which we can never create.If men believe in the existence of this unity, they may begin to desire it, and desiring it to seek for it, and seeking it to find it. If, when they find it, they refuse to deny it, in due time, by ways now unsearchable, they will surely return to external communion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The little reed, bending to the force of the wind, soon stood upright again when the storm had passed over. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28034]]></link><description><![CDATA[The little reed, bending to the force of the wind, soon stood upright again when the storm had passed over.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The communities' response to our newsletter has been phenomenal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35441]]></link><description><![CDATA[The communities' response to our newsletter has been phenomenal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How inexpressible is the meanness of being a hypocrite! how horrible is it to be a mischievous and malignant hypocrite. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20240]]></link><description><![CDATA[How inexpressible is the meanness of being a hypocrite! how horrible is it to be a mischievous and malignant hypocrite.   - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire),]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sever the ignorant doubt in your heart with the sword ofself-knowledge.
