Too often, alas, conversion has been the end as well as the beginning, with the result that some Christians have looked back, with mingled delight and wistfulness to a past event that now seems to have diminished relevance to daily living. We can fully understand, then, the appeal of a movement which promises a new dimension of Christian living, there in the New Testament, and now available in everyday experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man is an ape with possibilities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19973]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man is an ape with possibilities.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody is being allowed to enter the area.

The Christian is not a homo religiosus but a man, pure and simple, just as Jesus became man... It is only by living completely in this world that one learns to believe. One must abandon every attempt to make something of oneself, whether it be a saint, a converted sinner, a churchman, a righteous man, or an unrighteous one, a sick man or a healthy one... This is what I mean by worldliness -- taking life in one's stride, with all its duties and problems, its successes and failures, its experiences and helplessness... How can success make us arrogant or failure lead us astray, when we participate in the sufferings of God by living in this world?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never go backward.
