And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You want fame? ...

The various members belong organically to each other in Christ, and are to exhibit that harmony practically in their common life. The recognition of how they differ from each other, and are yet one, is to enrich their worship, inspire their ministry, and quicken their love. To divide the local church is... to witness to a divided Christ, or to a discipleship to lesser masters than Christ, such as Paul or Apollos. Both implications are equally unthinkable. There is no New Testament pattern of serving the one Christ, except in one local body, formed by the incorporation given in the one baptism, and the continued life sustained by breaking and sharing the one bread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization is hideously fragile [and] there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19820]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization is hideously fragile [and] there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29467]]></link><description><![CDATA[A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945   There remains for us only the very narrow way, often extremely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8612]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945   There remains for us only the very narrow way, often extremely difficult to find, of living every day as though it were our last, and yet living in faith and responsibility as though there were to be a great future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64456]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3872]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People say Malala\'s voice is being sold to the world.
