It has been the largest single factor in combating, on a world-wide scale, such ancient foes of man as war, famine, and the exploitation of one race by another. More than any other religion, it has made for the dignity of human personality. This it has done by a power inherent within it of lifting lives from selfishness, spiritual mediocrity, and moral defeat and disintegration, to unselfish achievement and contagious moral and spiritual power and by the high value which it set upon every human soul through the possibilities which it held out of endless growth in fellowship with the eternal God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This has got a lot of history.

Many preachers have made use of this fact to point out helpful spiritual implications; and yet, by New Testament times, the word carried no such denotation as "called out." It was simply the word for "assembly" or "congregation." It so happened that in the Greek city-states an assembly of the citizenry resulted from the people being called out of their city and summoned from their farms to participate in such gatherings. Even though the etymology of the word remains, its real meaning is just "assembly," and a Greek-speaking person of New Testament times would be no more inclined to understand ekklesia in its original etymological value of "called out" than we today would recognize "God be with you" in "good-by," which, as we may learn from the dictionary, was derived from the longer phrase.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2796]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Museums are becoming gathering places for the community. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34144]]></link><description><![CDATA[Museums are becoming gathering places for the community.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34144</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Respect for ones parents is the highest duty of civil life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53982]]></link><description><![CDATA[Respect for ones parents is the highest duty of civil life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Baseball is ninety percent mental.
