The shortest possible description of a Christian -- a description with which the New Testament would fully agree -- is that a Christian is a person who can say: "For me Jesus Christ is Lord." Herbert Butterfield's words about facing the future are good: "Hold to Christ, and for the rest be totally uncommitted." Any alleged conversion which does not leave one totally committed solely to Jesus Christ is incomplete and imperfect. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We make way for the man who boldly pushes past us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46196]]></link><description><![CDATA[We make way for the man who boldly pushes past us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46196</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Come to the edge,' he said.

But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether a man is burdened by power or enjoys power; whether he is trapped by responsibility or made free by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether a man is burdened by power or enjoys power; whether he is trapped by responsibility or made free by it; whether he is moved by other people and outer forces or moves them -- this is of the essence of leadership.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love, with very young people, is a heartless business.
