It is surely life itself that makes against belief in most cases. It is the contradiction in real life between any image of God as good -- whether God is "above", "beneath", or "within" -- that makes men atheists. Yet how few books and how few sermons touch on this basic problem! Our theological libraries are crammed with books devoted to every aspect of textual and higher criticism of the Bible; but of genuine theological thinking about the things which drive religion from men's hearts, there is appallingly little to be found. The archaeology of Christian origins seems largely to have replaced genuine theology.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6700</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A good memory and a tongue tied in the middle is a combination which gives immortality to conversation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10108]]></link><description><![CDATA[A good memory and a tongue tied in the middle is a combination which gives immortality to conversation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like a man made after supper of a cheese-paring: when a' was naked, he was, for all the world, like ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55935]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like a man made after supper of a cheese-paring: when a' was naked, he was, for all the world, like a forked radish, with a head fantastically carved upon it with a knife. -King Henry IV.

This faith, once given, proved to be -- like the Person who gave rise to it -- essentially self-authenticating. And ever since, the Church has looked to the Cross, a symbol of weakness, as its unique source of power in preaching the Gospel, its authority both to teach and to preach has been of this kind. No amount of liaison between the Church and the source of any other authority, political or moral, must be allowed to obscure the simplicity -- and the mystery -- of the authority of Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When they scored first, as a coach I was rethinking what we were doing.

You put some of the virus of some dreadful illness into a man's arm, and there is a little itchiness, some scratchiness, a slight discomfort--disagreeable, no doubt, but not the fever of the real disease, the turning and the tossing, and the ebbing strength. And we have all been inoculated with Christianity, more or less. We are on Christ's side, we wish him well, we hope that He will win, and we are even prepared to do something for Him, provided, of course, that He is reasonable, and does not make too much of an upset among our cozy comforts and our customary ways. But there is not the passion of zeal, and the burning enthusiasm, and the eagerness of self-sacrifice, of the real faith that changes character and wins the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[David's outstanding experience and expertise in business banking will be a tremendous asset to our business clients and Bremer employees. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36957]]></link><description><![CDATA[David's outstanding experience and expertise in business banking will be a tremendous asset to our business clients and Bremer employees.
