Everywhere the man who, so far as he comprehends Jesus Christ, so far as he can get any knowledge of Him, is His servant -- the man who makes Christ a teacher of his intelligence and the guide of his soul -- the man who obeys Christ as far as he has been able to understand him... I would know any man as a Christian, would rejoice to know any man as a Christian, whom Jesus would recognize as a Christian; and Jesus Christ, I am sure, in these old days recognized His followers even if they came after Him with the blindest sight, with the most imperfect recognition and acknowledgment of what He was and of what He could do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was real happy with Gill; he came in and gave us some good innings.

The grosser manifestations of these sins -- egotism, exhibitionism, self-promotion -- are strangely tolerated in Christian leaders, even in circles of impeccable orthodoxy. They are so much in evidence as actually, for many people, to become identified with the gospel. I trust it is not a cynical observation to say that they appear these days to be a requisite for popularity in some sections of the Church visible. Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm spending a year dead for tax reasons. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34012]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm spending a year dead for tax reasons.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been doing silly voices since I was a child. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36257]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've been doing silly voices since I was a child.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Home computers are being called upon to perform many new functions, including the consumption of homework formerly eaten by the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9587]]></link><description><![CDATA[Home computers are being called upon to perform many new functions, including the consumption of homework formerly eaten by the dog.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Live that you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17875]]></link><description><![CDATA[Live that you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17875</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wherever you go, go with all your heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19011]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wherever you go, go with all your heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19011</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57134]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth it off.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On the field, blacks have been able to be super giants.
