It is the wisdom of this world, not its knowledge, that is foolishness with God... The history of philosophy is a story of contradictory, discarded hypotheses...

In the beginning, John the Baptist had taught his disciples to expect from Christ the baptism -- not of water only, as in his baptism -- but of the Spirit. Before His death, Jesus had sought to fill His disciples' minds with the expectation of this gift... And that Spirit had come in sensible power upon them some ten days after Jesus disappeared for the last time from their eyes... And this Spirit was the Spirit of God, but also, and therefore, the Spirit of Jesus. Jesus was not then merely a past example, or a remote Lord, but an inward presence and power. A mere example in past history becomes in experience a feebler and feebler power... But the example of Jesus was something much more than a memory. For He who had taught them in the past how to live was alive in the heavenly places and was working within them by His Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many of them made the ultimate sacrifice for their country and we must never forget what they have given to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28883]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many of them made the ultimate sacrifice for their country and we must never forget what they have given to us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28883</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I met with Coach Bowden and he gave me some good information.
