The mind of our generation, having little comprehension or taste for such a message, is usually content to try to discover "the Jesus of history", conceived as a human example and teacher of a distant past. Meanwhile, there exists always alongside all forms of religious belief the great tradition of mystical experience. The mystic knows that, whatever be the truth about an historic act or person, there is a Spirit dwelling in man. In our time, even natural science abates its arrogant denials and admits the possibility of such immanence... The weak point of mysticism, as seen at least by a matter-of-fact person, is that it is apt to be so nebulous ethically. What the Immanent is, those who claim most traffic with It can often least tell us. Is It a power making for righteousness, or is It a higher synthesis of good and evil? Or is It not a moral -- that is to say, not a personal Being at all?... The raising of these questions is not intended to throw any doubt upon the validity of mystical experience as such; but we have a right to ask what content is given in the experience. Paul was a mystic, but all his mystical experience had a personal object. It was Jesus Christ, a real, living person --historic, yet not of the past alone; divine, yet not alien from humanity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Work hard.

One side of Christ's work will appeal most to one mind, another to another. The mistake that is often made by those who speak most about Christian experience is that they are so apt to insist upon everyone else's experience -- on penalty of its utter worthlessness -- being exactly the same as their own. The great thing is that we should be attracted by Christ in some way, that we should come to God in that spirit of penitence which Christ taught was the one condition of acceptance with Him, and with that steady purpose of amendment which is, as he always taught, a part of true penitence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In any closet, you can find it, if it is too small, or out of style, or there is just ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27768]]></link><description><![CDATA[In any closet, you can find it, if it is too small, or out of style, or there is just one of it where there should be two.

It tends to imply that the objection is to the attendant dangers and not to the thing itself. But if sexual intercourse before and outside marriage is against the teaching of Jesus, then the thing is not only dangerous, it is wrong in itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How can it be that mathematics, being after all a product of human thought independent of experience, is so admirably ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26539]]></link><description><![CDATA[How can it be that mathematics, being after all a product of human thought independent of experience, is so admirably adapted to the objects of reality?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26539</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4838]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poverty was the greatest motivating factor in my life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65019]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poverty was the greatest motivating factor in my life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My fond affection thou hast seen, Then judge of my regret  To think more happy thou hadst been  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61863]]></link><description><![CDATA[My fond affection thou hast seen, Then judge of my regret  To think more happy thou hadst been   If we had never met!    And has that thought been shared by thee?     Ah, no! that smiling cheek      Proves more unchanging love for me       Than labor'd words could speak.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61863</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first half of our life is ruined by our parents and the second half by our children ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45497]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first half of our life is ruined by our parents and the second half by our children]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Literary imagination is an aesthetic object offered by a writer to a lover of books. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63805]]></link><description><![CDATA[Literary imagination is an aesthetic object offered by a writer to a lover of books.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These violent delights have violent ends And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,  Which, as they kiss, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11844]]></link><description><![CDATA[These violent delights have violent ends And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,  Which, as they kiss, consume.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trust is to human relationships what faith is to gospel living.
