Although I became familiar with the contemporary and recent studies of honest, competent scholars who questioned them, I was convinced that the historical evidence confirms the virgin birth and the bodily resurrection of Christ.

Although now we see Him not, yet believing, we can "rejoice with joy unspeakable" in what the Triune God has done and is doing through Him. This Good News, so rich that it is stated in a variety of ways, but always consistently, in the New Testament, is what we always imperfect children, but children [yet], are privileged -- and commanded -- to make known and to demonstrate to all mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The real problem is structural: retail consolidation, difficulties in the classified auto space and competition from other media. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34222]]></link><description><![CDATA[The real problem is structural: retail consolidation, difficulties in the classified auto space and competition from other media.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66061]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Light griefs are communicative, great ones stupefy. [Lat., Curae leves loquuntur, ingentes stupent.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18343]]></link><description><![CDATA[Light griefs are communicative, great ones stupefy. [Lat., Curae leves loquuntur, ingentes stupent.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A couple of hours talking to travel agents can save you a lot of headaches down the road. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37087]]></link><description><![CDATA[A couple of hours talking to travel agents can save you a lot of headaches down the road.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37087</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you’ve got plenty to watch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66052]]></link><description><![CDATA[When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you’ve got plenty to watch.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66052</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The road to heaven lies as near by water as by land. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19086]]></link><description><![CDATA[The road to heaven lies as near by water as by land.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19086</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We love orthodoxy.

It is good. It is the best. It is the clean, clear cut teaching of God's Word, the trophies won by truth in its conflict with error, the levees which faith has raised against the desolating floods of honest or reckless misbelief or unbelief; but orthodoxy, clear and hard as crystal, suspicious and militant, may be but the letter well shaped, well named, and well learned, the letter which kills.
