Any attempts to hide behind the excuse that it is too difficult, when what we mean is that its word is too hard for us to bear, meets the just remark of a pastor from Communist Germany: "How can they say that the Bible is difficult, when young Communists are poring over much more difficult and much more technical literature to discover what Communism is all about?" Sometimes the Biblical teaching is crystal-clear, but we dare not understand it. The Christian Church has a vested interest in its present forms, and Christian people, like others, have their pleasant prejudices. This unwillingness to hear some new thing, except in times of great disturbance, plays a bigger part in weakening the voice of God through the Bible than we are prepared to admit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In most countries, if you have drugs in your possession, in your suitcase or on you, the fact that you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33676]]></link><description><![CDATA[In most countries, if you have drugs in your possession, in your suitcase or on you, the fact that you don't know about it or you were set up or you're carrying someone else's bag -- that is no excuse whatsoever and you're gonna be sentenced to the full extent of the law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33676</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How can a man be said to have a country when he has not right of a square inch of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10226]]></link><description><![CDATA[How can a man be said to have a country when he has not right of a square inch of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The growing interest is coming from our adult and senior populations, with a need for more family-oriented activities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37544]]></link><description><![CDATA[The growing interest is coming from our adult and senior populations, with a need for more family-oriented activities.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the first time in history, a private company is organizing a mission to the moon, ...

Irving teaches me the lesson of cheerfulness, Hawthorne shows me the hatefulness of sin, Longfellow gives me the soft, tranquil music of hope. Lowell makes us feel that we must give ourselves to our fellow men. Whittier sings to me of divine Fatherhood and human brotherhood. These are Christian lessons: who inspired them? Who put it into the heart of Martin Luther to nail those theses on the church door of Wittenberg? Who stirred and fired the soul of Savonarola? Who thrilled and electrified the soul of John Wesley? Jesus Christ is back of these all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some are born mad.
