For to men there is a difference of joy and of sorrow, but for thee, O Lord, there is no difference in these things; everything that comes from thee is a good and perfect gift.   ... Søren Kierkegaard August 16, 2000   By giving to Jesus Christ, the Man who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, this historical personality, the name of Lord, the Saviour, we renounce all mysticism. For mysticism in the strict sense exists only where one soars above the sphere of history, and where in place of the Mediator and the historical event are put the inner word of God, the inner motions of the soul, in order to reach immediacy between soul and God, and, in the end, the identity of both. But while it is necessary to safeguard the Christian message of the Holy Spirit from the mystical misunderstanding by calling attention to its relation to Jesus Christ, it is necessary on the other hand to safeguard the message of Jesus Christ and His work from the orthodox and rationalist misunderstanding by emphasizing that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord but by the Holy Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to come across as a positive person. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66360]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want to come across as a positive person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Books are the blessed chloroform of the mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4565]]></link><description><![CDATA[Books are the blessed chloroform of the mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every why hath a wherefore. -The Comedy of Errors.

Thus the law of Christ is a law of bearing. Bearing means forbearing and sustaining...   The Christian must suffer and endure the brother. It is only when he is a burden that another person is really a brother and not merely an object to be manipulated. It is, first of all, the freedom of the other person that is a burden to the Christian. The freedom of the other person includes all that we mean by a person's nature, individuality, endowment. It also includes his weaknesses and oddities, which are such a trial to our patience, everything that produces frictions, conflicts, and collisions among us.   Then, there is the abuse of that freedom that becomes a burden for the Christian. In sin, fellowship with God and with his brother are broken. To cherish no contempt for the sinner but rather to prize the privilege of bearing him means not to have to give him up as lost, to be able to accept him, to preserve fellowship with him through forgiveness...   The service of forgiveness is rendered by one to the others daily. It occurs, without words, in the intercessions for one another. He who is bearing others knows that he himself is being borne.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today's egg is better than tomorrow's hen ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today's egg is better than tomorrow's hen]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can kill a man but you can't kill an idea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11283]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can kill a man but you can't kill an idea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am among those who think that science has great beauty.
