Examples could be multiplied. This type of service is a great witness to the reality of Christian life and faith; but it presupposes a spirit of fellowship within the Church, a spirit which is all too rare. It means that there is mutual respect and trust between the minister and the members of his Church; and a spirit of fellowship which is outward-looking and which issues in service.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We find it hard to believe that other people's thoughts are as silly as our own, but they probably are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59222]]></link><description><![CDATA[We find it hard to believe that other people's thoughts are as silly as our own, but they probably are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Resignation is the courage of Christian sorrow ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53942]]></link><description><![CDATA[Resignation is the courage of Christian sorrow]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My plan of building from the back continues.

We don't despise God's name; in fact, we call upon it constantly to justify ourselves... If we object to meat-eating, we declare that God is vegetarian; if we abhor war, we proclaim a pacifist Deity. He who turned water into wine to gladden a wedding it now accused by many of favouring that abominable fluid grape juice. There can hardly be a more evil way of taking God's name in vain than this way of presuming to speak in it. For here is spiritual pride, the ultimate sin, in action -- the sin of believing in one's own righteousness. The true prophet says humbly, "To me, a sinful man, God spoke." But the scribes and Pharisees declare, "When we speak, God agrees." They feel no need of a special revelation, for they are always, in their own view, infallible. It is this self-righteousness of the pious that most breeds atheism, by inspiring all decent, ordinary men with loathing of the enormous lie.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you do things well, do them better.
