S. Lewis when he says [of the doctrine of the Final Judgment], "There is no doctrine which I would more willingly remove from Christianity than this, if it lay in my power". But we cannot do so, for two reasons: first, because it enjoys the full support of Christ's own teaching; and second, because it makes a good deal of sense. If the gospel is extended to us for our acceptance, it must be possible also to reject and refuse it. The alternative would be for God to compel an affirmative response.   It would be nice to be able to say that all will be saved, but the question arises, Does everyone want to be saved? What would love for God be like if it were coerced? There is a hell because God respects our freedom and takes our decisions seriously -- more seriously, perhaps, than we would sometimes wish. God wants to see hell completely empty; but if it is not, He cannot be blamed. The door is locked only on the inside. It is not Christians but the unrepentant who "want" it [to be locked].]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tyrant, step from the throne, and give place to thy master. [Fr., Tyran, descends du trone et fais place a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59962]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tyrant, step from the throne, and give place to thy master. [Fr., Tyran, descends du trone et fais place a ton maitre.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People come into your life and people leave it... you just have to trust that life has a road mapped ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21065]]></link><description><![CDATA[People come into your life and people leave it... you just have to trust that life has a road mapped out for you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love and envy make a man pine, which other affections do not, because they are not so continual. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52379]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love and envy make a man pine, which other affections do not, because they are not so continual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perfect valour consists in doing without witnesses that which we would be capable of doing before everyone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10343]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perfect valour consists in doing without witnesses that which we would be capable of doing before everyone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66468]]></link><description><![CDATA[When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been very lucky with them.

There had been days when he had been too hectoring or domineering -- so, at least, these impossible people had said, though he himself denied it still. At all events, protesting to Rome, they had won the Emperor's ear, and humbled their governor. And that must not happen again. Ah, me! Is not this life of ours a fearsome thing? Take care! take care! for if you sin that sin, be sure that somehow you will pay for it -- and, it may be, at how hideous a price! So Pilate found in his day; so you, too, will find it in ours... Only God knows what may come out of that, if you should give way to it. Pilate was curt and domineering to the Jews one day. And it was because of that, months later, his unwilling hands set up the cross of Christ: unwilling -- but they did it. Take you care! for sin is very merciless. If you have had the sweet, [sin] will see to it that you quaff the bitter to the very dregs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7616</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Martyrs of Papua New Guinea, 1942  Whence comes this idea that if what we are doing is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7653]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Martyrs of Papua New Guinea, 1942  Whence comes this idea that if what we are doing is fun, it can't be God's will?

You are surrendering to love, because God is Love, the cohesive force of the universe that connects us all. Surrender is not just a religious concept; it's a power tool for listening to the voice of your spirit and following its directions. When you surrender your head to your heart, you allow your heart to give you a wider, higher intelligence perspective. Remember the phrase, "The real teacher is within you." Very simply, that teacher is to be found in the common sense of your own heart. -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There have been heavy rains in the area and as a result many rivers and streams have flooded. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34825]]></link><description><![CDATA[There have been heavy rains in the area and as a result many rivers and streams have flooded.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34825</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The markets are clearly disappointed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42257]]></link><description><![CDATA[The markets are clearly disappointed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes we know the answers to our questions yet we still ask.
