Having themselves been emancipated from the superstitions and slavery of a false doctrine and a harsh ecclesiastical government, it would be thought most natural that the Reformers and those who followed them should promptly turn their attention to spreading these glad tidings among non-Christian peoples; but here a strange anomaly is found in the fact that there had been hardly any period, in the entire history of the Christian Church, so destitute of any concerted effort to spread the gospel in heathen lands [as] just this period of the Reformation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now is the age of anxiety. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2683]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now is the age of anxiety.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2683</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are obligations to nobility. [Lat., Noblesse oblige.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44579]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are obligations to nobility. [Lat., Noblesse oblige.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44579</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the men behind who "make" the man ahead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/999]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's the men behind who "make" the man ahead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us be friends, Cinna, it is I who invite you to be so. [Fr., Soyons amis, Cinna, c'est moi ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16772]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us be friends, Cinna, it is I who invite you to be so. [Fr., Soyons amis, Cinna, c'est moi qui t'en convie.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16772</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What we learned here is love tastes bitter when it’s gone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4281]]></link><description><![CDATA[What we learned here is love tastes bitter when it’s gone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the first two years we'll probably take 10 because we want to build a nice foundation.

They now knew him no more by sight and after the flesh; they had His Spirit. And this "having" is both a real possession and a foretaste, an earnest of what is in store...   The Spirit assures us that we are heirs of a kingdom yet to be revealed (Rom. 8:17). The Spirit wars in us against the flesh (Gal. 5:17) and gives us assurance that even our mortal bodies shall be quickened (Rom. 8:11). Meanwhile the very mark of the Spirit's presence is that we groan waiting for our adoption (Rom. 8:23) and hoping for that which we do not yet see (Rom. 8:24,25).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What kind of world is this that can send machines to Mars and does nothing to stop the killing of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47244]]></link><description><![CDATA[What kind of world is this that can send machines to Mars and does nothing to stop the killing of a human being?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47244</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible.

It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength, before going out to face the world again. "The thoughtful soul to solitude retires," said the poet of other and quieter times; but where is the solitude to which we can retire today? "Commune with your own heart upon your bed and be still," is a wise and healing counsel; but how can it be followed in this day of the newspaper, the telephone, the radio and television? These modern playthings, like pet tiger cubs, have grown so large and dangerous that they threaten to devour us all. What was intended to be a blessing has become a positive curse. No spot is now safe from the world's intrusion. The need for solitude and quietness was never greater than it is today. What the world will do about it is their problem. Apparently the masses want it the way it is, and the majority of Christians are so completely conformed to this present age that they, too, want things the way they are. They may be annoyed a bit by the clamor and by the goldfish-bowl existence they live, but apparently they are not annoyed enough to do anything about it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Build me a shrine, and I could kneel To rural Gods, or prostrate fall;  Did I not see, did ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Build me a shrine, and I could kneel To rural Gods, or prostrate fall;  Did I not see, did I not feel.   That One Great Spirit governs all.    O Heaven, permit that I may lie     Where o'er my corse green branches wave;      And those who from life's tumults fly       With kindred feelings press my grave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I dare say I am compelled, unconsciously compelled, now to write volume after volume, as in past years I was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25372]]></link><description><![CDATA[I dare say I am compelled, unconsciously compelled, now to write volume after volume, as in past years I was compelled to go to sea, voyage after voyage.
