The first is its compromised, deficient understanding of revelation. Without Biblical historicity and veracity behind the Word of God, theology can only grow closer to Hinduism. Second, the modern Christian is drastically weak in an unmediated, persona. experiential knowledge of God. Often, what passes for religious experience is a communal emotion felt in church services, in meetings, in singing or contrived fellowship. Few Christians would know God on their own. Third, the modern church is often pathetically feeble in the expression of its focal principle of community. It has become an adult social club, preaching shop, or minister-dominated group. With these weaknesses, modern Christianity cannot hope to understand why people have turned to the East, let alone stand against the trend and offer an alternative.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A competitive world offers two possibilities.

We invoke the true God for the Emperor. Even if he persecute us, we are bidden to pray for them that persecute us, as you can read in our books, which are not hidden, which you often get hold of. We pray for him because the Empire lies between us and the end of the world. We count the Caesars to be God's vice-regents and swear by their safety (not by their genius, as required). As for loyalty, Caesar really is more ours than yours; for it was our God who set him up. It is for his own good, that we refuse to call the Emperor God; Father of his Country is a better title. No Christian has ever made a plot against a Caesar; the famous conspirators and assassins were heathen, one and all. Piety, religion, faith are our best offering of loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a dear little plant that grows in our isle, 'Twas St. Patrick himself sure that set it;  And ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23040]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's a dear little plant that grows in our isle, 'Twas St. Patrick himself sure that set it;  And the sun on his labor with pleasure did smile,   And with dew from his eye often wet it.    It thrives through the bog, through the brake, and the mireland;     And he called it the dear little shamrock of Ireland--      The sweet little shamrock, the dear little shamrock,       The sweet little, green little, shamrock of Ireland!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As our cooperation with the IAEA is on the right track, I believe the report will be positive, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35722]]></link><description><![CDATA[As our cooperation with the IAEA is on the right track, I believe the report will be positive,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Health costs, energy costs, all those things came together like a perfect storm and now the districts really have no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38765]]></link><description><![CDATA[Health costs, energy costs, all those things came together like a perfect storm and now the districts really have no choice but to go to referendum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The poverty of our century is unlike that of any other.
