The mystic soul may impatiently think so, but the moral soul finds such mediation the way to reality; and the mystic experience is not quite trustworthy about reality. The pagan gods had no mediators, because they were not real or good gods; but the living God has a living Revealer. To know the living God is to know Christ; to know Christ is to know the living God. We do not know God by Christ but in Him. We find God when we find Christ; and in Christ alone we know and share his final purpose. Our last knowledge is not the contact of our person with a thing or a thought; it is intercourse of person and person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of François de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, Teacher, 1622  Our business is to love what God would have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of François de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, Teacher, 1622  Our business is to love what God would have us do.

It is... not merely a sacred book but a book so remorselessly and continuously sacred that it does not invite -- it excludes or repels -- the merely aesthetic approach. You can read it as literature only by a tour de force... It demands incessantly to be taken on its own terms: it will not continue to give literary delight very long, except to those who go to it for something quite different. I predict that it will in the future be read, as it always has been read, almost exclusively by Christians.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're just monitoring the dikes right now and making sure the water isn't staying on them for an extended period ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29945]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're just monitoring the dikes right now and making sure the water isn't staying on them for an extended period of time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29945</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is like a hot bath.

I have no hesitation in answering, Yes, it can, and it must. St. Paul wrote, "The very spring of our actions is the love of Christ. We look at it this way: if one died for all men, then in a sense, they all died; and his purpose in dying for them is that their lives should now be no longer lived for themselves but for Him who died and rose again for them." There is the motive. Can anyone doubt that St. Paul's ministry was fruitful -- in wisdom, in Christ-like character, in testimony to the power of the Spirit of Christ -- or effective -- in conversions, in churches planted, in men raised up to carry on the work? Yet St. Paul spent long hours working with his hands to support himself. He served Christ, therefore, as an "amateur". Dare we say he was not really a "full time" worker? Or was he not really "unpaid"?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Syracuse will be happy to see that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34157]]></link><description><![CDATA[Syracuse will be happy to see that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Aske much to have a little. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49137]]></link><description><![CDATA[Aske much to have a little.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49137</guid></item></channel></rss>
