That phrase represents Paul's "ecclesia of God". It is a community of loving persons, who bear one another's burdens, who seek to build up one another in love, who "have the same thoughts in relation to one another that they have in their communion with Christ". It is all this because it is the living embodiment of Christ's own Spirit. This is a high and mystical doctrine, but a doctrine which has no meaning apart from loving fellowship in real life. A company of people who celebrate a solemn sacrament of Christ's Body and Blood, and all the time are moved by selfish passions -- rivalry, competition, mutual contempt -- is not for Paul a Church or Divine Commonwealth at all, no matter how lofty their faith or how deep their mystical experience; for all these things may "puff up"; love alone "builds up". In the very act, therefore, of attaining its liberty to exist, the Divine Commonwealth has transcended the great divisions of men. In principle, it has transcended them all, and by seriously living out that which its association means, it is on the way to comprehending the whole race. Short of that its development can never stop. This is the revealing of the sons of God for which the whole creation is waiting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some hypocrites and seeming mortified men, that held down their heads, were like the little images that they place in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20227]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some hypocrites and seeming mortified men, that held down their heads, were like the little images that they place in the very bowing of the vaults of churches, that look as if they held up the church, but are but puppets.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I act like sh*t don't phase me, inside it drives me crazy, my insecurities could eat me alive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21043]]></link><description><![CDATA[I act like sh*t don't phase me, inside it drives me crazy, my insecurities could eat me alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[lovers alone wear sunlight. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25792]]></link><description><![CDATA[lovers alone wear sunlight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An elephant wasn't sitting on my chest, so I couldn't be having a heart attack.
