Of course, such a way is hard and costly, but it is also joyous and rewarding even in the here-and-now. People who follow that Way know beyond all possible argument that they are in harmony with the purpose of God, that Christ is with them and in them as they set about His work in our disordered world. If anyone thinks this is perilous and revolutionary teaching, so much the better. That is exactly what they thought of the teaching of Jesus Christ. The light He brought to bear upon human affairs is almost unbearably brilliant: but it is the light of Truth, and in that light human problems can be solved.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only abnormality is the incapacity to love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25765]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only abnormality is the incapacity to love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25765</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beautiful light is born of darkness, so the faith that springs from conflict is often the strongest and the best. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25072]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beautiful light is born of darkness, so the faith that springs from conflict is often the strongest and the best.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25072</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a vibrancy in Africa.

It is only in the secondary esoteric sphere of the religious life that we find guarantees and a general attempt to compel faith. To demand guarantees and proofs of faith is to fail to understand its very nature by denying the free, heroic act which it inspires. In really authentic and original religious experience, to the existence of which the history of the human spirit bears abundant witness, faith springs up without the aid of guarantees and compelling proofs, without any external coercion or the use of authority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When it is a question of God's almighty Spirit, never say, "I can't.". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1179]]></link><description><![CDATA[When it is a question of God's almighty Spirit, never say, "I can't.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I knew it was the end of the game and that's what you have to do to win.
