In fact, however, faith in Jesus Christ crucified and risen did not first appear at some later stage in the tradition, but was the foundation of the tradition, the very soil out of which it grew; and it is in light of that faith alone that the tradition can be understood. This faith in Jesus Christ, the Crucified and Exalted One, explains both the things which the primitive tradition makes known to us, with its manifest concern for the factual truth of the tradition about Jesus, and at the same time the peculiar liberty which the evangelists take in making alterations in the record in points of detail. In relating the acts and words of Jesus, they do not refer back to any sort of "archives" possessed by the community... Jesus Christ is not for them a figure of past history whose proper place is in a library.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If it is to be, it is up to me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21698]]></link><description><![CDATA[If it is to be, it is up to me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21698</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not; a sense of humor to console him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55118]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not; a sense of humor to console him for what he is]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55118</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My dear, my native soil! For whom my warmest wish to Heav'n is sent,  Long may thy hardy sons ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25953]]></link><description><![CDATA[My dear, my native soil! For whom my warmest wish to Heav'n is sent,  Long may thy hardy sons of rustic toil   Be blest with health, and peace, and sweet content!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do not believe that the Good Lord plays dice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26009]]></link><description><![CDATA[I do not believe that the Good Lord plays dice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26009</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It happened so fast.

The passage of Scripture which subdued and controlled my mind was this, "The servant of the Lord must not strive." It was painful indeed to see the church, with the exception of the aisles, almost forsaken; but I thought that if God would only give a double blessing to the congregation that did attend, there would on the whole be as much good done as if the congregation were doubled and the blessing limited to only half the amount. This comforted me many, many times, when, without such a reflection, I should have sunk under my burden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The reason the way of the transgressor is hard is because it's so crowded. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4008]]></link><description><![CDATA[The reason the way of the transgressor is hard is because it's so crowded.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So that every wand or staff of empire is forsooth curved at top. [Lat., Adeo ut omnes imperii virga sive ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17977]]></link><description><![CDATA[So that every wand or staff of empire is forsooth curved at top. [Lat., Adeo ut omnes imperii virga sive bacillum vere superius inflexum sit.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lips that touch liquor will never touch mine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51011]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lips that touch liquor will never touch mine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51011</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This has been the first real test since FEMA (U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency) was put under Homeland Security and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41516]]></link><description><![CDATA[This has been the first real test since FEMA (U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency) was put under Homeland Security and obviously it didn't work and I think they will want to reexamine how they respond to disasters.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we blame, we give away our power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44277]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we blame, we give away our power.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Flowers always make people better, happier and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine to the soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16274]]></link><description><![CDATA[Flowers always make people better, happier and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine to the soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16274</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And Hope enchanted smiled, and waved her golden hair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19778]]></link><description><![CDATA[And Hope enchanted smiled, and waved her golden hair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Defer no time; delays have dangerous ends. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51310]]></link><description><![CDATA[Defer no time; delays have dangerous ends.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I praise the Frenchman; his remark was shrewd,-- "How sweet, how passing sweet is solitude."  But grant me still ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57172]]></link><description><![CDATA[I praise the Frenchman; his remark was shrewd,-- "How sweet, how passing sweet is solitude."  But grant me still a friend in my retreat,   Whom I may whisper--Solitude is sweet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57172</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Twentieth-century art may start with nothing, but it flourishes by virtue of its belief in itself, in the possibility of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3318]]></link><description><![CDATA[Twentieth-century art may start with nothing, but it flourishes by virtue of its belief in itself, in the possibility of control over what seems essentially uncontrollable, in the coherence of the inchoate, and in its ability to create its own values.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tried to pick us up by just getting tip-ins and rebounds and putting it back up and trying to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28889]]></link><description><![CDATA[I tried to pick us up by just getting tip-ins and rebounds and putting it back up and trying to get fouled.
