For if the attribute "Christian" can be given sense from Eph. 2, then it means reconciled and reconciling, triumphant over walls and removing the debris, showing solidarity with the "enemy" and promoting not one's own peace of mind but "our peace"... When this peace is deprived of its social, national, or economic dimensions, when it is distorted or emasculated so much that only "peace of mind" enjoyed by saintly individuals is left -- then Jesus Christ is being flatly denied. To propose, in the name of Christianity, neutrality or unconcern on questions of international, racial, or economic peace -- this amounts to using Christ's name in vain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the body of one guilty deed a thousand ghostly fears and haunting thoughts proceed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18500]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the body of one guilty deed a thousand ghostly fears and haunting thoughts proceed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each of us is a being in himself and a being in society, each of us needs to understand himself ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4025]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each of us is a being in himself and a being in society, each of us needs to understand himself and understand others, take care of others and be taken care of himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before God can deliver us from ourselves, we must undeceive ourselves.” ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before God can deliver us from ourselves, we must undeceive ourselves.”]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have read somewhere or other, in Dionysius of Halicarnassus, I think, that history is philosophy teaching by examples. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19313]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have read somewhere or other, in Dionysius of Halicarnassus, I think, that history is philosophy teaching by examples.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The very uniqueness of the Resurrection as a historical event always causes problems when we try to describe it, just ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6787]]></link><description><![CDATA[The very uniqueness of the Resurrection as a historical event always causes problems when we try to describe it, just as it did for the original writers.
