Does anyone today remember how the emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion? It is said that he had a vision -- saw a cross in the sky with the inscription, "In this sign shalt thou conquer." He accepted the new faith promptly, because he thought it would defeat his enemies for him. That is man's Christianity, a means to earthly triumph. And in our present crisis we are appealing to it to defeat the Russians for us. We hear of the life-and-death struggle between Christianity and Communism, the necessity of "keeping God alive as a social force" -- as if our Lord could not survive a Soviet victory! It is a poor sort of faith that imagines Christ defeated by anything men can do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7826</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In art the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can inspire ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3132]]></link><description><![CDATA[In art the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can inspire]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52226]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it is. - Strong Opinions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Joseph of Nazareth  It is the custom of unbelievers to speak as if the air of Palestine ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7063]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Joseph of Nazareth  It is the custom of unbelievers to speak as if the air of Palestine were then surcharged with belief in the supernatural, miracles were everywhere. Thus they would explain away the significance of the popular belief that our Lord wrought signs and wonders. But in so doing they set themselves a worse problem than they evade. If miracles were so very common, it would be as easy to believe that Jesus wrought them as that He worked at His father's bench, but also it would be as inconclusive.  And how then are we to explain the astonishment which all the evangelists so constantly record? On any conceivable theory, these writers shared the beliefs of that age, and so did the readers who accepted their assurance that all were amazed, and that His report "went out straightway everywhere into all the region of Galilee." These are emphatic words, and both the author and his readers must have considered a miracle to be more surprising than modern critics believe they did. Yet we do not read of any one was converted by this miracle. All were amazed, but wonder is not self-surrender. They were content to let their excitement die out -- as every violent emotion must -- without any change of life, any permanent devotion to the new Teacher and His doctrine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18147]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18147</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fantasy love is much better than reality love.
