St. Basil the Great  January 3, 1998  Commemoration of Gladys Aylward, Missionary in China, 1970  For us in the Pacific, in Asia, in India, and in Africa, Christian unity is not an optional extra. It is an urgent necessity, for our divisions are a real stumbling-block to the proclamation of the Gospel... Mission is at the heart of the divine reality. It is the will of God and the Kingdom of God which are to be made known. Wherever we are, our purpose is not to propagate the Church as an end in itself, but to proclaim Christ as Lord of all life and as Saviour of all men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What else is the meaning of our present chaos, of humanity in sorrow, but this: that contemporary man is tried ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6694]]></link><description><![CDATA[What else is the meaning of our present chaos, of humanity in sorrow, but this: that contemporary man is tried before the bar of the Eternal, and found wanting? Nor can any nation survive, or re-establish lasting peace, if it rests on those foundations on which contemporary nations have been built, our own included. What are those crumbling foundations? Conceit, self-will, denial of discipline, self-expressionism, secularism, this worldliness, greed, entrenched privilege, defiance of God's desire. On base absurdities have we built. Have we now moral courage to face our common sin, or are we content to trust in one form of armed wickedness to overcome the evils of another form of the same mad folly? Merely by smashing our enemies we shall not remake the world. By Beelzebub no devils are cast out...

But now I may say I heard, but I understood not; for they were far above, out of my reach; for their talk was about a new birth -- the work of God on their hearts. And methought they spake as if Joy did make them speak; they spake with such pleasantness of scripture language and with such appearance of grace in all they said, that they were to me as if they had found a new world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bureaucracy is the art of making the possible impossible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4992]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bureaucracy is the art of making the possible impossible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweet is the scene where genial friendship plays The pleasing game of interchanging praise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48026]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sweet is the scene where genial friendship plays The pleasing game of interchanging praise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48026</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43919]]></link><description><![CDATA[Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you laid all our laws end to end, there would be no end. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24274]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you laid all our laws end to end, there would be no end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24274</guid></item></channel></rss>
