The nominal Christian pays homage to something about Jesus, rather than worshipping the man himself. For this reason, nominal Christians will extol the moral teachings of Jesus, the faith of Jesus, the personality of Jesus, the compassion of Jesus, the world view of Jesus, the self-understanding of Jesus, etc. None of these worships Jesus as the Christ, but only something about him, something peripheral to the actual flesh-and-blood man. This is why when the almighty God came into the world in Jesus, he came as the lowest of the low, as weakness itself, as a complete and utter nothing, in order that men would be forced into the crucial decision about him alone and would not be able to worship anything about him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[61 died that day in the 1st infantry..in Vietnam.. two? rows of body bags.. the fruit of war...drying in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/218]]></link><description><![CDATA[61 died that day in the 1st infantry..in Vietnam.. two? rows of body bags.. the fruit of war...drying in the sun.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The doctrines of religion are resolved into carefulness; carefulness into vigorousness; vigorousness into guiltlessness; guiltlessness into abstemiousness; abstemiousness into cleanliness; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8859]]></link><description><![CDATA[The doctrines of religion are resolved into carefulness; carefulness into vigorousness; vigorousness into guiltlessness; guiltlessness into abstemiousness; abstemiousness into cleanliness; cleanliness into godliness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To sigh, yet not recede; to grieve, yet not repent! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53813]]></link><description><![CDATA[To sigh, yet not recede; to grieve, yet not repent!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For well-dowered wife, credit, friends, birth and beauty, all-powerful money gives them all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50222]]></link><description><![CDATA[For well-dowered wife, credit, friends, birth and beauty, all-powerful money gives them all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're dealing with some of the same countries that we're dealing with.
