He must therefore plunge himself into the life of a godless world, without attempting to gloss over its ungodliness with a veneer of religion or trying to transfigure it. He must live a 'worldly' life and so participate in the suffering of God. He may live a worldly life as one emancipated from all false religions and obligations. To be a Christian does not mean to be religious in a particular way, to cultivate some particular form of asceticism (as a sinner, a penitent, or a saint), but to be a man. It is not some religious act which makes a Christian what he is, but participation in the suffering of God in the life of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the bright day that brings forth the adder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51285]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the bright day that brings forth the adder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51285</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is the quality of your intent?Certain people have a way of saying things that shake us at the core. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53980]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is the quality of your intent?Certain people have a way of saying things that shake us at the core. Even when the words do not seem harsh or offensive, the impact is shattering. What we could be experiencing is the intent behind the words. When we intend to do good, we do. When we intend to do harm, it happens. What each of us must come to realize is that our intent always comes through. We cannot sugarcoat the feelings in our heart of hearts. The emotion is the energy that motivates. We cannot ignore what we really want to create. We should be honest and do it the way we feel it. What we owe to ourselves and everyone around is to examine the reasons of our true intent.My intent will be evident in the results.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Day of the Lord, as all our days should be! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54591]]></link><description><![CDATA[Day of the Lord, as all our days should be!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want a house that has got over all its troubles; I don't want to spend the rest of my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19640]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want a house that has got over all its troubles; I don't want to spend the rest of my life bringing up a young and inexperienced house.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Repentance is not so much remorse for what we have done as the fear of the consequences. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2838]]></link><description><![CDATA[Repentance is not so much remorse for what we have done as the fear of the consequences.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This past weekend I really felt comfortable.

And this is as much to secure men from mistake in matters of belief as God hath afforded to keep men from sin in matters of practice. He hath made no effectual and infallible provision that men shall not sin; and yet it would puzzle any man to give a good reason why God should take more care to secure men against errors in belief than against sin and wickedness in their lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unless we remember we cannot understand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unless we remember we cannot understand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When evening closes Nature's eye, The glow-worm lights her little spark  To captivate her favorite fly   And ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17581]]></link><description><![CDATA[When evening closes Nature's eye, The glow-worm lights her little spark  To captivate her favorite fly   And tempt the rover through the dark.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't look back, they might be gaining on you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't look back, they might be gaining on you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you. -B.B King. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59555]]></link><description><![CDATA[The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you. -B.B King.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll be merry and free, I'll be sad for nae-body;  If nae-body cares for me,   I'll care ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9938]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll be merry and free, I'll be sad for nae-body;  If nae-body cares for me,   I'll care for nae-body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There can be no church in which the demon will not have his chapel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8683]]></link><description><![CDATA[There can be no church in which the demon will not have his chapel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8683</guid></item></channel></rss>
