But such dependence does not destroy human personality. Man is never so fully and so truly personal as when he is living in complete dependence upon God. This is how personality comes into its own. This is humanity at its most personal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis in grain, sir; 'twill endure wind and weather. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51524]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis in grain, sir; 'twill endure wind and weather.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17926]]></link><description><![CDATA[None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cruelty is, perhaps, the worst kid of sin.

The true way to test all the Books is to see whether they work the will of Christ or not. No Book which does not preach Christ can be apostolic, though Peter or Paul were its author. And no Book which does preach Christ can fail to be apostolic, although Judas, Ananias, Pilate, or Herod were its author.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8260</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Confidence is courage at ease. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Confidence is courage at ease.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together yield themselves up ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46192]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together yield themselves up when taken little by little.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One by one, my sons were taken from me, ...

Such an encounter with the historical Jesus is, of course, not the same as Christian faith in him. Even Caiaphas, Herod, and Pontius Pilate encountered him in this way. Christian faith is still a matter of decision -- either this Man is God's redemptive act, or he is not. Nor is the historical Jesus the object of our faith. That object is the Risen Christ preached by the Church. But the Risen Christ is in continuity with the historical Jesus, and it is the historical Jesus which makes the Risen Christ not just an abstraction, but clothes him with flesh and blood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At least 36.

It is the part of a Christian to take care of his own body for the very purpose that by its soundness and wellbeing he may be enabled to labor... for the aid of those who are in want, that thus the stronger member may serve the weaker member, and we may be children of God, and busy for one another, bearing one another's burdens, and so fulfilling the law of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are three great friends: an old wife, an old dog, and ready money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16805]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are three great friends: an old wife, an old dog, and ready money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all born mad.
