As the New Testament uses the word, faith is trust, acceptance, commitment, vision. It is not a belief in this or that creed, it is a quality which lies rather in the realm of intuition than the intellect. Faith has indeed an element of true simplicity; it is one of the qualities -- perhaps the fundamental quality -- of the child-like spirit without which no man can enter the Kingdom of God.  ... Anonymous December 16, 1996  But lo' the snare is broke, the captive's freed,  By faith on all the hostile powers we tread, And crush through Jesus' strength the Serpent's head.  Jesus hath cast the cursed Accuser down,  Hath rooted up the tares by Satan sown:  All nature bows to His benign command, And two are one in His almighty hand. One in His hand, O may we still remain,  Fast bound with love's indissoluble chain;  (That adamant which time and death defies, That golden chain which draws us to the skies!)  His love the tie that binds us to His throne,  His love the bond that perfects us in one,  His only love constrains our hearts t' agree,  And gives the rivet of Eternity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The spiritual virtue of a sacrament is like light; although it passes among the impure, it is not polluted. [Lat., ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10189]]></link><description><![CDATA[The spiritual virtue of a sacrament is like light; although it passes among the impure, it is not polluted. [Lat., Spiritalis enim virtus sacramenti ita est ut lux: etsi per immundos transeat, non inquinatur.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would give all my fame for a pot of ale and safety. -King Henry V.

Life is a process of becoming, and the moment of death is the transition from one life to another. Thus it is possible for a Christian to succumb to his own kind of death-wish, to seek that extreme of other-worldliness to which the faith has always been liable, especially in periods of stress and uncertainty. There may appear a marked preoccupation with death and a rejection of all temporal things. To say that this world is in a fallen state and that not too much value must be set upon it, is very far from the Manichaean error of supposing it to be evil throughout. The Christian hope finds ambivalence in death: that which destroys, also redeems.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prudence is an attitude that keeps life safe, but does not often make it happy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prudence is an attitude that keeps life safe, but does not often make it happy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can spend our lives letting the world tell us who we are.
