Therefore, the true way for you to find Christ is not to go groping in a thousand books. It is not for you to try evidences about a thousand things that people have believed of Him, but it is for you to undertake so great a life, so devoted a life, so pure a life, so serviceable a life, that you cannot do it except by Christ, and then see whether Christ helps you. See then whether there comes to you the certainty that you are a child of God, and the manifestation of the child of God becomes the most credible, the most certain thing to you in all of history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every one is witty for his owne purpose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49221]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every one is witty for his owne purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love and dignity cannot share the same abode. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25851]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love and dignity cannot share the same abode.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization is the process of reducing the infinite to the finite. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization is the process of reducing the infinite to the finite.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you love the sacred and despise the ordinary, you are still bobbing in the ocean of delusion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62359]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you love the sacred and despise the ordinary, you are still bobbing in the ocean of delusion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every tomorrow has two handles.
