The complete professionalization of a priestly ministry largely eliminated laymen from direct evangelism and robbed them of the missionary spirit, since they were not to be trusted to teach and could not validly administer the saving symbols. The reliance on organization and ceremonial grace, along with the growing concept of the representative relation of the Pope on earth to the Christ in heaven, involved a practical ignoring of the Holy Spirit as the divinely ordained Counterpart of the Christ and the informing soul of the Church... The vast territorial extent of Christianity and the very general ignorance of world geography made it possible for Christians to lose sight of the non-Christian world and to feel, even if somewhat vaguely, that the Christian task was complete, so far as its world occupation was concerned. The Mohammedan growth had encircled the Christian territories. The relations between Christendom and the Mohammedan world fostered anything else than a spirit of helpfulness and a disposition to give the blessings of the one to the other. Christian information about the heathen world was largely cut off by... Mohammedanism; and in order to reach the heathen, missionaries would have to make their way through Mohammedan territory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lucky chance, that oft decides the fate Of mighty monarchs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51771]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lucky chance, that oft decides the fate Of mighty monarchs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[it's not your client's obligation, or your obligation, to prove your client's innocence.
