The New Testament [again, and notoriously, in the person of St Paul] assumes that there will be places other than the bedroom in which men and women assume consciously differentiated roles. They will do so in the affairs of the home, in which the wife is to "submit" to her husband (Eph. 5:22ff) as head. They will do so even outside the context of family life, since man is "head" of woman in some sense; in quite another context, when the Church is at worship (I Cor. 11:2ff). In order that St Paul should not be misjudged, we must note--(a) that this relational ordering of male and female presupposes a fundamental generic equality (I Cor. 11:1 ff); and (b) that the "submission" of the wife is a special case of a "submission" of all Christians to one another, and complements a husband's love that is to be expressed in self-sacrifice (Eph. 5:2lff, 25ff). The apostle is not an apologist for male tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humanity either makes, or breeds, or tolerates all its afflictions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1677]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humanity either makes, or breeds, or tolerates all its afflictions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who stand for nothing fall for anything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64490]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shame arises from the fear of men, conscience from the fear of God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15515]]></link><description><![CDATA[Shame arises from the fear of men, conscience from the fear of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am a simple Buddhist monk. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4962]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am a simple Buddhist monk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sales to the Arab market take place two or three times a year, and they sometimes, but not always, place ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32658]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sales to the Arab market take place two or three times a year, and they sometimes, but not always, place considerable orders.

The old prophets, when they would describe things emphatically, did not only draw parables from things which offered themselves, as from the rent of a garment, ... from the vessels of a potter, ... but also, when such objects were wanting, they supplied them by their own actions, as by rending a garment, ... by shooting, ... etc. By such types the prophets loved to speak. And Christ, being endued with a nobler prophet spirit than the rest, excelled also in this kind of speaking, yet so as not to speak by His own actions -- [which would have been] less grave and decent -- but to turn into parables such things as offered themselves. On occasion of the harvest approaching, He admonishes His disciples once and again of the spiritual harvest. Seeing the lilies of the field, He admonishes His disciples about clothing. In allusion to the present season of fruits, He admonishes His disciples about knowing men by their fruits. In the time of the Passover, when trees put forth their leaves, He bids His disciples, "learn a parable from the fig-tree".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In my intellect, I may divide [faith and works], just as in the candle I know there is both light ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7800]]></link><description><![CDATA[In my intellect, I may divide [faith and works], just as in the candle I know there is both light and heat; yet put out the candle, and both are gone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm worried that the universe will soon need replacing.

Education ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a short series on education:   What are the gifts of biblical faith to the secular university? Education can receive from the Bible a faith concerning man far more realistic than the naive faith by which education has tried to live. Not man as "pure reason": his reason is not pure. Not man as incipient angel: he can turn any structure... to good or to demonic purpose. Not man with his steps on the highroad called evolution: he is relatively free and, therefore, can and does wreck any evolution unless some Grace constantly renews his onward journey. Not man who by his science is sure to fashion a "brave new world"; by science he can destroy the world. Not man as centrally and characteristically a reasonable creature who needs only that his mind shall be educated to build a reasonable world. Not man regarded in any naive faith, but man as potentially divine and potentially unworthy, who stands always in need of help from beyond the confines of the natural order. If education confronts this faith, education will know that the mind's adventure also, like all things human, stands in need of redemption; and it can then proceed with lowliness, and thus with the power and light which are the reward of the lowly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of our tasks; the ultimate, the last ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2176]]></link><description><![CDATA[For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of our tasks; the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2176</guid></item></channel></rss>
