Utopias are the straws to which those cling who have no real hope; utopias are as unattractive as they are incredible, for those who know what real hope is. Utopias are not a consequence of true hope but a poor substitute for it and therefore a hindrance and not a help. The hope that is in Jesus Christ is different from all utopias of universal progress. It is based on the revelation of the crucified one. It is, therefore, not an uncertain speculation about the future but a certainty based upon what God has already revealed. One cannot believe in Jesus Christ without knowing for certain that God's victory over all powers of destruction, including death, is the end towards which the time process moves as its own end.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems to be a regular pattern. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40745]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems to be a regular pattern.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time writes no wrinkle on thine azure brow, Such as Creation's dawn beheld, thou rollest now. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44880]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time writes no wrinkle on thine azure brow, Such as Creation's dawn beheld, thou rollest now.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11015]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11015</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He draweth out the thread of his verbosity finer than the staple of his argument. -Love's Labour 's Lost.

But surely a man's hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating, and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not believe (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will. A man may love a women and not win her; but it would be very odd if the phenomenon called "falling in love" occurred in a sexless world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe the only explanation is that God did something extraordinary for Ryan.
