How would the man interpret it? Would it not mean to him, "You may go on hating. I do not mind it. You have had great provocation, and are justified in your hate?" No doubt God takes what wrong there is, and what provocation there is, into the account; but the more provocation, the more excuse that can be urged for the hate, the more reason, if possible, that the hater should be delivered from the hell of his hate, that God's child should be made the loving child that He meant him to be. The man would think, not that God loved the sinner, but that He forgave the sin, which God never does. Every sin meets its due fate -- inexorable expulsion from the paradise of God's Humanity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The face the index of a feeling mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14857]]></link><description><![CDATA[The face the index of a feeling mind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14857</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm tired of love, I'm still more tired of rhyme, but money gives me pleasure all the time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43018]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm tired of love, I'm still more tired of rhyme, but money gives me pleasure all the time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't get the impression that you arouse my anger.

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[What song the Syrens sang, or what name Achilles assumed when he hid himself among women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11519]]></link><description><![CDATA[What song the Syrens sang, or what name Achilles assumed when he hid himself among women.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the consciousness of the end is the limitation ofthe moment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22781]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the consciousness of the end is the limitation ofthe moment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22781</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As soon as I accepted my captaincy I knew I wanted Marie-Laure to be my vice captain.
