This is extremely difficult for us, because Jesus was careful to give men no external guarantee that he was, in fact, God in the flesh. Otherwise, he realized, we would not be worshipping him, but would only be worshipping or trusting in the guarantee, whatever it might be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Antony of Egypt, Abbot, 356 Commemoration of Charles Gore, Bishop, Teacher, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7003]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Antony of Egypt, Abbot, 356 Commemoration of Charles Gore, Bishop, Teacher, Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, 1932 Continuing a short series on Romans 8:   [Of vv. 11,17,23-25]   The counterpart of this withdrawal of Christ [the ascension] from the reach of the senses was the gift to the apostles of the Holy Spirit by whom Christ was made present to them in a new way. They now knew him no more by sight and after the flesh; they had His Spirit. And this "having" is both a real possession and a foretaste, an earnest of what is in store...   The Spirit assures us that we are heirs of a kingdom yet to be revealed (Rom. 8:17). The Spirit wars in us against the flesh (Gal. 5:17) and gives us assurance that even our mortal bodies shall be quickened (Rom. 8:11). Meanwhile the very mark of the Spirit's presence is that we groan waiting for our adoption (Rom. 8:23) and hoping for that which we do not yet see (Rom. 8:24,25).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We pine for kindred natures To mingle with our own. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58524]]></link><description><![CDATA[We pine for kindred natures To mingle with our own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633 The shepherds sing; and shall I silent be?
