Although I became familiar with the contemporary and recent studies of honest, competent scholars who questioned them, I was convinced that the historical evidence confirms the virgin birth and the bodily resurrection of Christ. Increasingly, I believed that the nearest verbal approach that we human beings can come to the great mystery is to affirm that Christ is both fully man and fully God. Although now we see Him not, yet believing, we can "rejoice with joy unspeakable" in what the Triune God has done and is doing through Him. This Good News, so rich that it is stated in a variety of ways, but always consistently, in the New Testament, is what we always imperfect children, but children [yet], are privileged -- and commanded -- to make known and to demonstrate to all mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Henceforth, I'll bear Affliction till it do cry out itself,  'Enough, enough, and die.' ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1661]]></link><description><![CDATA[Henceforth, I'll bear Affliction till it do cry out itself,  'Enough, enough, and die.']]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, for a lodge in some vast wilderness, Some boundless contiguity of shade,  Where rumour of oppression and deceit, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57173]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, for a lodge in some vast wilderness, Some boundless contiguity of shade,  Where rumour of oppression and deceit,   Of unsuccessful or successful war,    Might never reach me more!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57173</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one admits that nothing is certain one must, I think, also add that some things are more nearly certain ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5448]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one admits that nothing is certain one must, I think, also add that some things are more nearly certain than others]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5448</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lose an hour in the morning, and you will spend all day looking for it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25565]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lose an hour in the morning, and you will spend all day looking for it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25565</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been doing a lot of abstract painting lately, extremely abstract.
