We have no reason to mistrust the New Testament assurance. The Easter message and the historical Jesus are joined by a bridge resting on many piers. Jesus proclaimed the good news of the presence of God who, like a forgiving father, seeks his lost children and grants even sinners the company of the Redeemer; the disciples preached the Gospel of Christ, who appeared as saviour and died on the cross for sinners. In the Holy Spirit Jesus drove out unclean spirits and conquered Satan; from Easter onwards he was extolled as the Lord of all spirits, who gives the Holy Spirit to believers and in him is ever present with them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Keepe good men company, and you shall be of the number. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49585]]></link><description><![CDATA[Keepe good men company, and you shall be of the number.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never feel that something is wrong with you or that you need to be fixed, no one is perfect ..everyone ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63022]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never feel that something is wrong with you or that you need to be fixed, no one is perfect ..everyone is different for a specific reason.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An old Physitian, and a young Lawyer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49130]]></link><description><![CDATA[An old Physitian, and a young Lawyer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After a bad harvest sow again.

If they clamor for freedom, it is but freedom to establish equality and uniformity. The passion for equality is partly a passion for anonymity: to be one thread of the many which make up a tunic; one thread not distinguishable from the others. No one can then point us out, measure us against others and expose our inferiority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forgive, son; men are men; they needs must err. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53389]]></link><description><![CDATA[Forgive, son; men are men; they needs must err.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The hat is the ultimatum moriens of respectability. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18886]]></link><description><![CDATA[The hat is the ultimatum moriens of respectability.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18886</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In nine cases out of ten, a woman had better show more affection than she feels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1622]]></link><description><![CDATA[In nine cases out of ten, a woman had better show more affection than she feels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1622</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Memories of our lives, of our works and our deeds will continue in others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64229]]></link><description><![CDATA[Memories of our lives, of our works and our deeds will continue in others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are only as loyal as their options. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44982]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men are only as loyal as their options.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence is the key to unlocking our potential. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21759]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence is the key to unlocking our potential.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make yourself indispensable, and you will move up.
