Although I became familiar with the contemporary and recent studies of honest, competent scholars who questioned them, I was convinced that the historical evidence confirms the virgin birth and the bodily resurrection of Christ. Increasingly, I believed that the nearest verbal approach that we human beings can come to the great mystery is to affirm that Christ is both fully man and fully God. Although now we see Him not, yet believing, we can "rejoice with joy unspeakable" in what the Triune God has done and is doing through Him. This Good News, so rich that it is stated in a variety of ways, but always consistently, in the New Testament, is what we always imperfect children, but children [yet], are privileged -- and commanded -- to make known and to demonstrate to all mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12077]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9637]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Expressions of disapproval are on a level of vulgarity that cannot be tolerated.
