We are speaking of the proper relationship to the living God who exists. In order to understand the problems of our generation, we should be very alive to this distinction. Semantics (linguistic analysis) makes up the heart of modern philosophical study in the Anglo-Saxon world. Though the Christian cannot accept this study as a total philosophy, there is no reason why he should not be glad for the concept that words need to be defined before they can be used in communication. As Christians, we must understand that there is no word so meaningless as the word "god" until it is defined. No word has been used to reach absolutely opposite concepts as much as the word "god". Consequently, let us not be confused. There is much "spirituality" about us today that would relate itself to the word god or to the idea god; but this is not what we are talking about. Biblical truth and spirituality is not a relationship to the word god, or to the idea god. It is a relationship to the one who is there, which is an entirely different concept.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only by acceptance of the past, can you alter it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only by acceptance of the past, can you alter it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Strength is born in the deep silence of long-suffering hearts; not amid joy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Strength is born in the deep silence of long-suffering hearts; not amid joy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You shape your own destiny. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31468]]></link><description><![CDATA[You shape your own destiny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis an ill dog that deserves not a crust. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51040]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis an ill dog that deserves not a crust.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives?
