One does not find the optative forms of polite petition so characteristic of elaborate requests made to earthly and heavenly potentates. Rather than employing such august forms, the Christians made their requests to God in what seem to be blunt imperatives. This does not mean that Christians lacked respect for their heavenly father, but it does mean that they were consistent with a new understanding of Him. In the tens of thousands of papyri fragments which have been rescued from the rubbish heaps of the ancient Greek world, one finds the imperative forms used constantly between members of a family. When the Christians addressed God as "Father," it was perfectly natural therefore for them to talk to Him as intimately as they would to their own father. Unfortunately, the history of our own English language has almost reversed this process. Originally, men used "thou" and "thee" in prayer because it was the appropriate familiar form of address; but now these words have become relegated to prayer alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm happy, but I'm tired, exhausted and emotionally drained. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37571]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm happy, but I'm tired, exhausted and emotionally drained.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The big thing about (Cline's) teams is it starts with the offensive line, but when I think about their explosiveness, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33511]]></link><description><![CDATA[The big thing about (Cline's) teams is it starts with the offensive line, but when I think about their explosiveness, what I have seen is they have a lot of versatility,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Between good sense and good taste there is the difference between cause and effect. [Fr., Entre le bon sens et ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55104]]></link><description><![CDATA[Between good sense and good taste there is the difference between cause and effect. [Fr., Entre le bon sens et le bon gout il y a la difference de la cause a son effet.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Doug Allen, the owner of Long Acre Farms in Macedon, N.Y., spends his days operating heavy machinery, welding and handling ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33930]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Doug Allen, the owner of Long Acre Farms in Macedon, N.Y., spends his days operating heavy machinery, welding and handling chemicals.] My hands are a mess, ...
