But once, in the heart of an angry crowd, their enthusiasm soured suddenly into a growling muttering. He applied it confidently to a man who, under the inspiration of His friendship, had broken with his sorry past and his old selfish, unclean ways, and was doing what he could to put things right. Now that, He said, is what I call a saved man. Very solemnly He tells us that on the Day of Judgement we shall not be asked the questions we are expecting, but others that will puzzle and startle us. Those folk on the left hand were, as far as we hear, respectable folk; their business books were straight, their home life was kindly, they themselves were clean-living men and women: nothing whatever is laid to their charge excepting this, that they lived in a world needing their help and were too absorbed in something -- what it was, we are not told; it may have been their souls -- to give what aid they could.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children, and the one most important of all the things ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children, and the one most important of all the things we can give to them is unconditional love.

I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them, the revelation of God to men was made -- or appeared to be made -- less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided, and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have a new coach, so we're still working on a lot of things.
