We have no reason to mistrust the New Testament assurance. The Easter message and the historical Jesus are joined by a bridge resting on many piers. Jesus proclaimed the good news of the presence of God who, like a forgiving father, seeks his lost children and grants even sinners the company of the Redeemer; the disciples preached the Gospel of Christ, who appeared as saviour and died on the cross for sinners. In the Holy Spirit Jesus drove out unclean spirits and conquered Satan; from Easter onwards he was extolled as the Lord of all spirits, who gives the Holy Spirit to believers and in him is ever present with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every single soul is a poem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every single soul is a poem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unbelievable.

Our affections are not ours to be blighted and crucified; they are ours to be deepened and purified. The rich opportunities of life are not held out to us only to be snatched away by an invisible hand patiently waiting for the hour when the cup is sweetest; they are given to us that we may grow, alike through their rise or their withdrawal. They are real, they are sweet, and they are worthy of our longing for them; we gain nothing by calling them dross, or the world an illusion, or ourselves the victims of deception, or by exalting renunciation as the highest virtue. When these opportunities are denied us, it is a real, not an imaginary, loss which we sustain; and our part is not that of bare renunciation, of simple surrender; our part is to recognize the loss, to bear the pain, and to find a deeper and richer life in doing the will of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why are the umpires, the only two people on the field who aren't going to get grass stains on their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60010]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why are the umpires, the only two people on the field who aren't going to get grass stains on their knees, the only ones allowed to wear dark trousers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The important thing about a problem is not its solution, but the strength we gain in finding the solution ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57187]]></link><description><![CDATA[The important thing about a problem is not its solution, but the strength we gain in finding the solution]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are fagots and fagots. [Fr., Il y a fagots et fagots.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9162]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are fagots and fagots. [Fr., Il y a fagots et fagots.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes conflict is necessary in the short term to achieve peace through the threat of aggression, and sometimes it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42452]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes conflict is necessary in the short term to achieve peace through the threat of aggression, and sometimes it is the threat of conflict which can establish peace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42452</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The silence often of pure innocence Persuades, when speaking fails. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51541]]></link><description><![CDATA[The silence often of pure innocence Persuades, when speaking fails.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's a very good guy, he's a great teammate.

This word of God is the breath of God filling the world with living potentiality. The Voice of God is the most powerful force in nature, indeed the only force in nature, for all energy is here only because the power-filled Word is being spoken.

You put some of the virus of some dreadful illness into a man's arm, and there is a little itchiness, some scratchiness, a slight discomfort--disagreeable, no doubt, but not the fever of the real disease, the turning and the tossing, and the ebbing strength. And we have all been inoculated with Christianity, more or less. We are on Christ's side, we wish him well, we hope that He will win, and we are even prepared to do something for Him, provided, of course, that He is reasonable, and does not make too much of an upset among our cozy comforts and our customary ways. But there is not the passion of zeal, and the burning enthusiasm, and the eagerness of self-sacrifice, of the real faith that changes character and wins the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Slang is a language that rolls up its sleeves, spits on its hands, and goes to work ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56567]]></link><description><![CDATA[Slang is a language that rolls up its sleeves, spits on its hands, and goes to work]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We know we still can get a lot better.
