It is only in the secondary esoteric sphere of the religious life that we find guarantees and a general attempt to compel faith. To demand guarantees and proofs of faith is to fail to understand its very nature by denying the free, heroic act which it inspires. In really authentic and original religious experience, to the existence of which the history of the human spirit bears abundant witness, faith springs up without the aid of guarantees and compelling proofs, without any external coercion or the use of authority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music . . .can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43480]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music . . .can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43480</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The case has been going on for so long that I've forgotten whether I'm really innocent or guilty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24291]]></link><description><![CDATA[The case has been going on for so long that I've forgotten whether I'm really innocent or guilty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The two other parts [Moore] played from the '50s are so different from Evelyn Ryan.

It frequently appears to the non-Christian mind that this is an immoral or at least unmoral doctrine. Paul appears to be saying that a man is justified before God, not by his goodness or badness, not by his good deeds or bad deeds, but by believing in a certain doctrine of Atonement. Of course, when we come to examine the matter more closely, we can see that there is nothing unmoral in this teaching at all. For if "faith" means using a God-given faculty to apprehend the unseen divine order, and means, moreover, involving oneself in that order by personal commitment, we can at once see how different that is from merely accepting a certain view of Christian redemption... That which man in every religion, every century, every country, was powerless to affect, God has achieved by the devastating humility of His action and suffering in Jesus Christ. Now, accepting such an action as a fait accompli is only possible by this perceptive faculty of "faith". It requires not merely intellectual assent but a shifting of personal trust from the achievements of the self to the completely undeserved action of God. To accept this teaching by mind and heart does, indeed, require a metanoia ["transformation"], a revolution in the outlook of both heart and mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I support his race for Congress and I hope he'll be our next representative in Washington. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34148]]></link><description><![CDATA[I support his race for Congress and I hope he'll be our next representative in Washington.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34148</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would not vote for the mayor.
