This is extremely difficult for us, because Jesus was careful to give men no external guarantee that he was, in fact, God in the flesh. Otherwise, he realized, we would not be worshipping him, but would only be worshipping or trusting in the guarantee, whatever it might be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Felix will not pitch for Venezuela.
