The mind of our generation, having little comprehension or taste for such a message, is usually content to try to discover "the Jesus of history", conceived as a human example and teacher of a distant past. Meanwhile, there exists always alongside all forms of religious belief the great tradition of mystical experience. The mystic knows that, whatever be the truth about an historic act or person, there is a Spirit dwelling in man. In our time, even natural science abates its arrogant denials and admits the possibility of such immanence... The weak point of mysticism, as seen at least by a matter-of-fact person, is that it is apt to be so nebulous ethically. What the Immanent is, those who claim most traffic with It can often least tell us. Is It a power making for righteousness, or is It a higher synthesis of good and evil? Or is It not a moral -- that is to say, not a personal Being at all?... The raising of these questions is not intended to throw any doubt upon the validity of mystical experience as such; but we have a right to ask what content is given in the experience. Paul was a mystic, but all his mystical experience had a personal object. It was Jesus Christ, a real, living person --historic, yet not of the past alone; divine, yet not alien from humanity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a fellow says it hain't the money but the principle o' the thing, it's th' money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48239]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a fellow says it hain't the money but the principle o' the thing, it's th' money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I respect faith, but doubt is what gets you an education. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12791]]></link><description><![CDATA[I respect faith, but doubt is what gets you an education.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12791</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My coach saw I was hitting in the first quarter, so he just told me to keep shooting.
