Is it a total contradiction of it? Is it some sort of a reflection of it? or perhaps a devil's parody of it? Or has it nothing to do with it at all? Perhaps there will be many Christians to whom it would not occur to pose the question whether the process of secularization has anything to do with the biblical understanding of the goal of history. The Bible, for them, belongs to a religious world which is not admitted to belong to the world of secular events -- the world in which we are when we read the daily newspaper. But this is to read the Bible wrongly. Whatever else it may be, the Bible is a secular book dealing with the sort of events which a news editor accepts for publication in a daily newspaper; it is concerned with secular events, wars, revolutions, enslavements and liberations, migrants and refugees, famines and epidemics and all the rest. It deals with events which happened and tells a story which can be checked. We miss this because we do not sufficiently treat the Bible as a whole. When we do this, we see at once that the Bible -- whatever be the variety of material which it contains: poetry, prayers, legislation, genealogy, and all the rest -- is in its main design a universal history. It is an interpretation of human history as a whole, beginning with the saga of creation and ending with a vision of the gathering together of all the nations and the consummation of God's purpose for mankind. The Bible is an outline of world history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nearest the throne itself must be The footstool of humility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20029]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nearest the throne itself must be The footstool of humility.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As to posterity, I may ask (with somebody whom I have forgot) what has it ever done to oblige me? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47842]]></link><description><![CDATA[As to posterity, I may ask (with somebody whom I have forgot) what has it ever done to oblige me?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lovely being, scarcely formed or moulded, A rose with all its sweetest leaves yet folded. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3844]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lovely being, scarcely formed or moulded, A rose with all its sweetest leaves yet folded.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't go around saying the world owes you a living; the world owes you nothing; it was here first ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62178]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't go around saying the world owes you a living; the world owes you nothing; it was here first]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is tested in so many ways.

Had that been the case, it is not too bold to say that the new religion could not have conquered the Empire. It was because Christianity appealed direct to the people, addressed them in their own language, and made itself comprehensible to them on their own plane of thought, that it met the needs and filled the heart of the Roman world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6920</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best weapon against an enemy is another enemy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63627]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best weapon against an enemy is another enemy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25394]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The global atmosphere is still unclear and the local picture is also generating some tensions.
