What we can see is that both an incarnation and a virginal conception were thoroughly appropriate to the needs and circumstances of the case and were more "natural", in the sense of more appropriate, than the alternatives... In practice, denial of the virginal conception or inability to see its relevance almost always goes with an inadequate understanding of the Incarnation and of the Christian religion in general.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah! still awhile the old thought retain, And yet consider it again! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59210]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah! still awhile the old thought retain, And yet consider it again!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have been studying how I may compare This prison where I live unto the world;  And, for because ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48267]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have been studying how I may compare This prison where I live unto the world;  And, for because the world is populous,   And here is not a creature but myself,    I cannot do it.

Wherever, in any world, a soul, by free-willed obedience, catches the fire of God's likeness, it is set into the growing walls, a living stone. When, in your hard fight, in your tiresome drudgery, or in your terrible temptation, you catch the purpose of your being and give yourself to God, and so give Him the chance to give Himself to you, your life -- a living stone -- is taken up and set into that growing wall. Wherever souls are being tried and ripened, in whatever commonplace and homely ways, there God is hewing out the pillars for His temple. Oh, if the stone can only have some vision of the temple of which it is to be a part forever, what patience must fill it as it feels the blows of the hammer, and knows that success for it is simply to let itself be wrought into what shape the Master wills.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A trip to the hospital is always a descent into the macabre.

God has no more wrath in Himself now than He had before the creation, when He had only Himself to love... And it was solely to quench this wrath, awakened in the human soul, that the blood of the Son of God was necessary; because nothing but a life and birth, derived from Him into the human soul, could change this darkened root of a self-tormenting fire into an amiable image of the Holy Trinity as it was at first created.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7322</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Andrew the Apostle  This means that we do not know what are the limits of human history, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7213]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Andrew the Apostle  This means that we do not know what are the limits of human history, but it does not mean that there are no real limits. It is important to assert this, because if we do not do so, the limit which we know apart from Christ becomes determinative of our outlook. That limit is death -- the death of the individual, and the death of the social structure in which his corporate personality is embodied. When these are the only limits that men know, then they are left in a hopeless alternation between hope for an individual survival of death, which evacuates their corporate life of ultimate significance, and hope for the eternity of some social or political or cultural achievement, which evacuates personal existence of ultimate significance. This false alternation is overcome in Christ in whom we are brought into relation with the true limit -- a consummation of all things in which both the significance of each personal life and the significance of history as a whole are to be gathered up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Language is a form of human reason, which has its internal logic of which man knows nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24029]]></link><description><![CDATA[Language is a form of human reason, which has its internal logic of which man knows nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I drink to stay warm, and to kill selected memories... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11929]]></link><description><![CDATA[I drink to stay warm, and to kill selected memories...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men may die, but the fabrics of free institutions remains unshaken. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31460]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men may die, but the fabrics of free institutions remains unshaken.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31460</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man of sovereign parts he is esteem'd; Well fitted in arts, glorious in arms: Nothing becomes him ill that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55480]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man of sovereign parts he is esteem'd; Well fitted in arts, glorious in arms: Nothing becomes him ill that he would well. -Love's Labour 's Lost.
