Hence, if people say -- as many have said -- that the moral ideals set out in the gospels are high and noble ideals, and express admiration for the moral character of Jesus, and stop there, not daring to affirm more than that, the answer they are giving to the Question, "Is the Gospel true?", is No.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6659</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is a lie which makes us realize the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3201]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is a lie which makes us realize the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By a series of violent shocks, the nations in succession have struggled to shake off the Past, to reverse the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38397]]></link><description><![CDATA[By a series of violent shocks, the nations in succession have struggled to shake off the Past, to reverse the action of Time and the verdict of success, and to rescue the world from the reign of the dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're paid by companies.

Prayer is aligning ourselves with the purposes of God...  Prayer is commitment. We don't merely co-operate with God with certain things held back within. We, the total person, co-operate.
