How, then, is it with you and me? Be very sure that upon Calvary it was no strange, immoral favouritism that came into operation, whereby because of some beliefs that remain mere dead letters, that produce no change whatever in their characters, some people living the same kind of life as others and following the same selfish interests and ends as they, are given a destiny entirely different. That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[is an option, but not a likely option.

Every man is to work for his living. "If a man will not work, neither let him eat." But those who cannot work are to be provided for out of the common fund. Old and helpless persons who have relations of their own should, indeed, find support from them and not be forced to come upon the Church; but for the resourceless the Church must provide. And those who are rich and who earn more than enough to support their own families are to be willing contributors to the common fund. The love of money -- the desire to accumulate wealth -- is the root of every kind of evil. The relation of one to another is to be that of members in one body, in which, if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The problem with most people is that they think with their hopes or fears or wishes rather than their minds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1153]]></link><description><![CDATA[The problem with most people is that they think with their hopes or fears or wishes rather than their minds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1153</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Michael & All Angels  The nominal Christian, then, will see Jesus as a name, a representative, a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6575]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Michael & All Angels  The nominal Christian, then, will see Jesus as a name, a representative, a symbol, a personification, a prototype, a figure, a model, an exemplar for something else. The nominal Christian pays homage to something about Jesus, rather than worshipping the man himself. For this reason, nominal Christians will extol the moral teachings of Jesus, the faith of Jesus, the personality of Jesus, the compassion of Jesus, the world view of Jesus, the self-understanding of Jesus, etc. None of these worships Jesus as the Christ, but only something about him, something peripheral to the actual flesh-and-blood man. This is why when the almighty God came into the world in Jesus, he came as the lowest of the low, as weakness itself, as a complete and utter nothing, in order that men would be forced into the crucial decision about him alone and would not be able to worship anything about him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People need loving the most when they deserve it the least ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46042]]></link><description><![CDATA[People need loving the most when they deserve it the least]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need every partner we can find. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33382]]></link><description><![CDATA[We need every partner we can find.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it's [the memorial is] a beautiful spot and fits in here at the soccer fields perfectly, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42019]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think it's [the memorial is] a beautiful spot and fits in here at the soccer fields perfectly,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money is your means of survival.

The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers your scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who is greedy is always in want. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18292]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who is greedy is always in want.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easy when we are in prosperity to give advice to the afflicted. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1157]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easy when we are in prosperity to give advice to the afflicted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An elephant wasn't sitting on my chest, so I couldn't be having a heart attack.
