Because He is "in Heaven" He is everywhere on earth: because He is ascended, He is here now. Our devotion is not to hold us by the empty tomb; it must lift up our hearts to heaven so that we too "in heart and mind thither ascend and with Him continually dwell": it must also send us forth into the world to do His will; and these are not two things, but one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Arabs will turn round and point out the United States gives billions of dollars to Israel.
