And truly there is no one to blame for this but themselves. For if a man were looking and striving after nothing but to find a preparation in all things, and diligently gave his whole mind to see how he might become prepared; verily God would well prepare him, for God giveth as much care and earnestness and love to the preparing of a man, as to the pouring in of His Spirit when the man is prepared.  ... Theologia Germanica April 14, 1996  This was the fullness of time, when Christ Jesus did come, that the Messiah should come. It was so to the Jews, and it was so to the Gentiles too... Christ hath excommunicated no nation, no shire, no house, no man; He gives none of His ministers leave to say to any man, thou art not redeemed; He gives no wounded or afflicted conscience leave to say to itself, I am not redeemed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"?

The atheist [Friedrich] Nietzsche also saw the point and argued forcefully that the person who gives up belief in God must be consistent and give up Christian morals as well, because the former is the foundation of the latter. He had nothing but contempt for fellow humanists who refused to see that Christian morality cannot survive the loss of its theological moorings, except as habit or as lifeless tradition. As Ayn Rand also sees so clearly, love of the neighbor cannot be rationally justified within the framework of secular humanism. Love for one's neighbor is an ethical implication of the Christian position. This suggests to me that the world's deepest problem is not economic or technological, but spiritual and moral. What is missing is the vision of reality that can sustain the neighbor-oriented life style that is so urgently needed in our world today.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It occurred to me that I have spent almost every working day of the past ten years living in a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31750]]></link><description><![CDATA[It occurred to me that I have spent almost every working day of the past ten years living in a state of repressed fear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice is the infrastructure of proprietorship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39792]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice is the infrastructure of proprietorship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39792</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love conquers all things except poverty and toothache. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25642]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love conquers all things except poverty and toothache.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know if there is any issue that they would feel strongly enough to take. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32888]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't know if there is any issue that they would feel strongly enough to take.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32888</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have wrestled with death.
