It is certainly important to have an intellectual grasp of the orb of Christian truth; but it is still more important to have a vital, living experience of the power of Jesus Christ. When a man undergoes treatment from a doctor, he does not need to know the way in which the drug works on his body in order to be cured. There is a sense in which Christianity is like that. At the heart of Christianity there is a mystery, but it is not the mystery of intellectual appreciation; it the mystery of redemption.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All genius is a conquering of chaos and mystery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5613]]></link><description><![CDATA[All genius is a conquering of chaos and mystery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5613</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's no hate lost between us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18858]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's no hate lost between us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25714]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46924]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested in water]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one knows how difficult anything is until he has tried to do it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62830]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one knows how difficult anything is until he has tried to do it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What it comes down to is that anybody can win with the best horse.

Man knows his sin, which without temptation he could never have known; for in temptation man knows on what he has set his heart. The coming to light of sin is the work of the accuser, who thereby thinks to have won the victory. But it is sin which is become manifest which can be known, and therefore forgiven. Thus the manifestation of sin belongs to the salvation plan of God with man, and Satan must serve this plan.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved has already defined his own limitations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25103]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved has already defined his own limitations.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25103</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[LightWinged Smoke Lightwinged Smoke, Icarian bird, Melting thy pinions in thy upward flight, Lark without song, and the messenger of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18104]]></link><description><![CDATA[LightWinged Smoke Lightwinged Smoke, Icarian bird, Melting thy pinions in thy upward flight, Lark without song, and the messenger of dawn, Circling above the hamlets as thy nest; Or else, departing dream, and shadowy form Of midnight vision, gathering up thy skirts; By night star-veiling, and by day Darkening the light and blotting out the sun; Go thou my incense upward from this hearth, And ask the gods to pardon this clear flame.-Henry David Thoreau-.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You guys line up alphabetically by height. (a Florida State football coach) ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57557]]></link><description><![CDATA[You guys line up alphabetically by height. (a Florida State football coach)]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can play with anybody in the country.
