The shortest possible description of a Christian -- a description with which the New Testament would fully agree -- is that a Christian is a person who can say: "For me Jesus Christ is Lord." Herbert Butterfield's words about facing the future are good: "Hold to Christ, and for the rest be totally uncommitted." Any alleged conversion which does not leave one totally committed solely to Jesus Christ is incomplete and imperfect. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650  I have seen and read somewhat of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7257]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650  I have seen and read somewhat of the writings of learned men concerning the state of future glory; some of them are filled with excellent notions of truth, and elegancy of speech, whereby they cannot but much affect the minds of those who duly consider what they say. But -- I know not well whence it comes to pass -- the things spoken do not abide nor incorporate in our minds. They please and refresh for a little while, like a shower of rain in a dry season, that soaketh not unto the roots of things; the power of them doth not enter into us. Is it not from hence, that their notions of future things are not educed out of the experience which we have of the beginnings of them in this world? Yea, the soul is disturbed, not edified, in all contemplations of future glory, where things are proposed to it whereof in this life it hath neither foretaste, sense, experience, nor evidence. No man ought to look for anything in heaven, but what one way or other he hath some experience of in this life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Soccer is simple, but it is difficult to play simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57768]]></link><description><![CDATA[Soccer is simple, but it is difficult to play simple.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What makes life dreary is the want of a motive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43258]]></link><description><![CDATA[What makes life dreary is the want of a motive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His head, Not yet by time completely silver'd o'er,  Bespoke him past the bounds of freakish youth,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18582]]></link><description><![CDATA[His head, Not yet by time completely silver'd o'er,  Bespoke him past the bounds of freakish youth,   But strong for service still, and unimpair'd.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22458]]></link><description><![CDATA[Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Silence is the virtue of fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56322]]></link><description><![CDATA[Silence is the virtue of fools.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56322</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is a luxury loving animal.
