"Flesh" means sin and corruption, and is opposed to the Spirit; but embodiment, outward manifestation, concrete form, is not opposed to the Spirit. "Carnal" means sinful and hostile to God; the evil spirits, who we suppose possess no bodies, are carnal, but the Son of God became man, the Word was made flesh, He took upon Him a human body as well as a reasonable soul. God's ways and thoughts are not ours. While the abstract and ethereal imaginations of human reason create a god, who is not spirit, and whom they do not worship in spirit and truth, the God of the Bible is God manifest in the flesh -- Emmanuel... Did not Jesus, after His resurrection, eat before His disciples, who gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and honey? Is not the earth to be the scene of God's triumph and manifestation? Whatever is revealed in spiritual, whatever man imagines is carnal; the end of the ways of God is embodiment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7091</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Insanity is doing the same thing in the same way and expecting a different outcome. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54683]]></link><description><![CDATA[Insanity is doing the same thing in the same way and expecting a different outcome.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54683</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45756]]></link><description><![CDATA[Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My wife's jealousy is getting ridiculous.

Whenever, by exertion in any unselfish cause, health is broken or fortune impaired, or influential friends estranged, the follower of Christ is called an enthusiast, a fanatic, or even more plainly a man of unsound mind. He may be comforted by remembering that Jesus was said to be beside Himself when teaching and healing left Him not leisure even to eat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This promises well for Carlos' chances in the rest of the race.
