In my view, that means to speak on the one hand metaphysically, and on the other individualistically. Neither of these is relevant to the Bible message or to the man of today. Is it not true to say that individualistic concern for personal salvation has almost completely left us all? Are we not really under the impression that there are more important things than bothering about such a matter? (Perhaps not more important than the matter itself, but more than bothering about it). I know it sounds pretty monstrous to say that. But is it not, at bottom, even Biblical?... It is not with the next world that we are concerned, but with this world as created and preserved and set subject to laws and atoned for and made new. What is above the world is, in the Gospel, intended to exist for this world -- I mean that not in the anthropocentric sense of liberal, pietistic, ethical theology, but in the Bible sense of the creation and of the incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man only plays when in the full meaning of the word he is a man, and he is only completely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56931]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man only plays when in the full meaning of the word he is a man, and he is only completely a man when he plays.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to "get in touch with your feelings," fine, talk to yourself.

Jesus Christ, with a confidence that to the timid traditionalism of His time appeared blasphemous, asserted that He knew the Father and was prepared to let others into that knowledge. He did so, not by handing down a new tradition about God, but by making others sharers in His own attitude to God. This is what Paul means by "having the mind of Christ." It was this clear, unquestioning conviction that gave Paul his power as a missionary: but he expected it also in his converts. To them too "the world of knowledge" came "by the same Spirit". He prayed that God would give them a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. Such knowledge is, as Paul freely grants, only partial, but, so far as it goes, it is real, personal knowledge. In friendship between men there is a mutual knowledge which is never complete or free from mystery: yet you can know with a certainty nothing could shake, that your friend is "not the man to do such a thing", or that such-and-such a thing that you have heard is "just like him." You have a real knowledge which gives you a criterion. Such is the knowledge the Christian has of his Father.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have great faith in fools - self-confidence my friends will call it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65601]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have great faith in fools - self-confidence my friends will call it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children will watch anything, and when a broadcaster uses crime and violence and other shoddy devices to monopolize a child's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60655]]></link><description><![CDATA[Children will watch anything, and when a broadcaster uses crime and violence and other shoddy devices to monopolize a child's attention, it's worse than taking candy from a baby.
