We are speaking of the proper relationship to the living God who exists. In order to understand the problems of our generation, we should be very alive to this distinction. Semantics (linguistic analysis) makes up the heart of modern philosophical study in the Anglo-Saxon world. Though the Christian cannot accept this study as a total philosophy, there is no reason why he should not be glad for the concept that words need to be defined before they can be used in communication. As Christians, we must understand that there is no word so meaningless as the word "god" until it is defined. No word has been used to reach absolutely opposite concepts as much as the word "god". Consequently, let us not be confused. There is much "spirituality" about us today that would relate itself to the word god or to the idea god; but this is not what we are talking about. Biblical truth and spirituality is not a relationship to the word god, or to the idea god. It is a relationship to the one who is there, which is an entirely different concept.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One ungrateful man injures all who need assistance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51628]]></link><description><![CDATA[One ungrateful man injures all who need assistance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There swift return Diurnal, merely to officiate light  Round this opacous earth, this punctual spot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25064]]></link><description><![CDATA[There swift return Diurnal, merely to officiate light  Round this opacous earth, this punctual spot.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25064</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Handsome is that handsome does. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2820]]></link><description><![CDATA[Handsome is that handsome does.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we take that money we can take it and build better neighborhoods. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41007]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we take that money we can take it and build better neighborhoods.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We make our choices, then our choices make us! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64154]]></link><description><![CDATA[We make our choices, then our choices make us!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64154</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will never try to develop a strategy that wins on price.

You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity asa vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise ingiving. A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can giveyourself gifts that may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, orsome time each day with no purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough toaccept these gifts without obligation-to simply receive from yourself, andfrom the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never get a mime talking.
