In fact, however, faith in Jesus Christ crucified and risen did not first appear at some later stage in the tradition, but was the foundation of the tradition, the very soil out of which it grew; and it is in light of that faith alone that the tradition can be understood. This faith in Jesus Christ, the Crucified and Exalted One, explains both the things which the primitive tradition makes known to us, with its manifest concern for the factual truth of the tradition about Jesus, and at the same time the peculiar liberty which the evangelists take in making alterations in the record in points of detail. In relating the acts and words of Jesus, they do not refer back to any sort of "archives" possessed by the community... Jesus Christ is not for them a figure of past history whose proper place is in a library.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We thought it might be fun to have twins. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59940]]></link><description><![CDATA[We thought it might be fun to have twins.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creativeeffort. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21286]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creativeeffort.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21286</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There has been a transformation - you can feel it among the players - but I can hold my hand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30669]]></link><description><![CDATA[There has been a transformation - you can feel it among the players - but I can hold my hand up and say that is not down to me coaching on the field.

First, that the truth of the Scriptures be inviolably maintained. Secondly, since Scripture doth admit of diverse interpretations, that no one cling to any particular exposition with such pertinacity that, if what he supposed to be the teaching of Scripture should afterward turn out to be clearly false, he should nevertheless still presume to put it forward, lest thereby the sacred Scriptures should be exposed to the derision of unbelievers and the way of salvation should be closed to them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For myself I am an optimist--it does not seem to be much use being anything else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45218]]></link><description><![CDATA[For myself I am an optimist--it does not seem to be much use being anything else.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are no menial jobs, only menial attitudes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3458]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are no menial jobs, only menial attitudes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're the underdog always and we like that.

([Dr. Arthur] Way's translation shows this.) One line in a song that comes in Romans 8 has been a great help to me. Way calls the song a "Hymn of Triumph to Jesus". This is the line: "How can He [the Father] but, in giving Him [Jesus], lavish on us all things -- all?" "Freely give" means to give lavishly. What do I need today? Strength? Peace? Patience? Heavenly joy? Industry? Good temper? Power to help others? Inward contentment? Courage? Whatever it be, my God will lavish it upon me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57271]]></link><description><![CDATA[And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History is the essence of innumerable Biographies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19319]]></link><description><![CDATA[History is the essence of innumerable Biographies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It still amazes me how many millions goes to discovering another star in the galaxies when, for all we know, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14760]]></link><description><![CDATA[It still amazes me how many millions goes to discovering another star in the galaxies when, for all we know, we are still sitting on top of another undiscovered world beneath out feet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilized man has always had a great inclination to read his conceptions and feelings into the mind of primitive man; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56827]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilized man has always had a great inclination to read his conceptions and feelings into the mind of primitive man; but he has only a limited capacity for understanding the latter's undeveloped mental life and for interpreting, as it were, his nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Washington is the only state with a positive balance of trade with China, something we are very proud of. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36571]]></link><description><![CDATA[Washington is the only state with a positive balance of trade with China, something we are very proud of.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The test of civilization is the estimate of woman.
