What ought to result from it? What is the point and peak and heart and centre of it? Is it the offering we bring to God of praise and adoration, of thanksgiving and sacrifice, our praise, our sacrifice to Him? That has its place, not legitimate only, but imperative. And yet to put that in the foreground is to make the service fundamentally man-centered and subjective, which, face to face with God, is surely almost unthinkably unseemly. Or is the ideal we should hold before us that other extreme, so ardently pressed on us these days, that, face to face with the Lord God Almighty, High and Holy, it is for us to forget ourselves and -- leaving behind our petty little human joys and needs and sins and risings above thanksgiving and petition and confession -- to lose ourselves in an awed adoration of God's naked and essential being, blessing and praising Him, not even for what he has done for us, and been for us, but for what, in Himself, He is. To me, that seems not an advance, but a pathetic throw-back to the primitive of Brahmanism. We shall not learn to know God better, nor how to worship Him more worthily, by careful rubbing out from memory every wonder of Christ's revelation of Him.

It is surely life itself that makes against belief in most cases. It is the contradiction in real life between any image of God as good -- whether God is "above", "beneath", or "within" -- that makes men atheists. Yet how few books and how few sermons touch on this basic problem! Our theological libraries are crammed with books devoted to every aspect of textual and higher criticism of the Bible; but of genuine theological thinking about the things which drive religion from men's hearts, there is appallingly little to be found. The archaeology of Christian origins seems largely to have replaced genuine theology.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While Washington's a watchword, such as ne'er Shall sink while there's an echo left to air. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61238]]></link><description><![CDATA[While Washington's a watchword, such as ne'er Shall sink while there's an echo left to air.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vice itself lost half its evil, by losing all its grossness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60497]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vice itself lost half its evil, by losing all its grossness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kisses honeyed by oblivion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23830]]></link><description><![CDATA[Kisses honeyed by oblivion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A tragey means always a man's struggle with that which is stronger than man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24923]]></link><description><![CDATA[A tragey means always a man's struggle with that which is stronger than man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24923</guid></item></channel></rss>
