He taught that God, as the great feudal superior of the universe, allotted to all earthly authorities their rule in fief as subject to Himself. The priesthood was not an office of dominion, but of service, and its prerogatives ceased when service was not rendered. Dominion was not granted to one person as God's Vicar on earth, but the King was as much God's Vicar as the Pope; nay, every Christian held his rights immediately of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56372]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The hermit doesn't sleep at night, in love with the blue of the vacant moon.

He looked through the lattice of our flesh and he spake us fair, yea, he set us on fire, and we hasten on his scent. But when he shall appear, then shall we be like him, for we shall see him as he is: as he is, Lord, will our sight be, though the time be not yet.  ... The Confessions of St. Augustine June 19, 1996 Commemoration of Sundar Singh of India, Sadhu, Evangelist, Teacher, 1929  Many we have who plead themselves to be Christians. This might be allowed them, would they not do such things as the Christian religion abhors. But this is the least part of their claim.
