And when thus I look at Him, what do I learn? First of all, the true divinity of Christ Himself. I cannot doubt what is His own conception of His own personality. Through everything He does, through everything He says, there shines the quiet, intense radiance of conscious Godhead. Again, I say, it is not a word or two which He utters, though He does say things which make known His self-consciousness, but it is a certain sense of originalness, of being, as it were, behind the processes of things -- this is what has impressed mankind in Jesus, and been the real power of their often puzzled but never abandoned faith in His Divinity. He has appeared to men, in some way, as He appears to us today, to be not merely the channel but the fountain of Love and Wisdom and Power, of Pity and Inspiration and Hope: The wonderful thing about this sense of Divinity as it appears in Jesus is its naturalness, the absence of surprise or of any feeling of violence. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43889]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we only will tune in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All I asked for was a written and verbal apology from Ms. Gossman, and I didn't get it, ...
