This can be accomplished only by a red-hot, unconventional, unfettered devotion, in the power of the Holy Spirit, to the Lord Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We haven't even considered it.

This is plainly what has happened to many otherwise intelligent people. Over the years I have had hundreds of conversations with people, many of them of higher intellectual calibre than my own, who quite obviously had no idea of what Christianity is really about. I was in no case trying to catch them out: I was simply and gently trying to find out what they knew about the New Testament. My conclusion was that they knew virtually nothing. This I find pathetic and somewhat horrifying. It means that the most important Event in human history is politely and quietly bypassed. For it is not as though the evidence had been examined and found unconvincing: it had simply never been examined.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21897]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think their response has been very measured. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37838]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think their response has been very measured.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20480]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20480</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ad astra [To the stars] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43268]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ad astra [To the stars]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't believe one grows older.

You pull and you pull, but you can't get the rock out of the ground. So you give it a good kick, but you lose your balance and go skidding down the hill toward the pool. Then out comes a big Hawaiian man who was screwing his wife beside the pool because they thought it was real pretty. He tells you to get out of there, but you start faking it, like you're talking Hawaiian, and then he gets mad and chases you...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sacred to the memory of printing, the art preservative of all arts.

Many preachers have made use of this fact to point out helpful spiritual implications; and yet, by New Testament times, the word carried no such denotation as "called out." It was simply the word for "assembly" or "congregation." It so happened that in the Greek city-states an assembly of the citizenry resulted from the people being called out of their city and summoned from their farms to participate in such gatherings. Even though the etymology of the word remains, its real meaning is just "assembly," and a Greek-speaking person of New Testament times would be no more inclined to understand ekklesia in its original etymological value of "called out" than we today would recognize "God be with you" in "good-by," which, as we may learn from the dictionary, was derived from the longer phrase.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that what women resent is not so much giving herself in pieces as giving herself purposelessly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17510]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe that what women resent is not so much giving herself in pieces as giving herself purposelessly.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56941]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Better to have loved a short man than never to have loved a tall. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2136]]></link><description><![CDATA[Better to have loved a short man than never to have loved a tall.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is an unutterable sigh, planted in the depths of the soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66592]]></link><description><![CDATA[God is an unutterable sigh, planted in the depths of the soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66592</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where there is the necessary technical skill to move mountains, there is no need for the faith that moves mountains. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9464]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where there is the necessary technical skill to move mountains, there is no need for the faith that moves mountains.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blue Order was very much chugging forward.

Thereafter, feeling his life a burden from the shame and ridicule to which he was exposed, he schemed to convince all the other Foxes that being tailless was much more attractive, thus making up for his own deprivation. He assembled a good many Foxes and publicly advised them to cut off their tails, saying that they would not only look much better without them, but that they would get rid of the weight of the brush, which was a very great inconvenience. One of them interrupting him said, If you had not yourself lost your tail, my friend, you would not thus counsel us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By flatterers besieged And so obliging that he ne'er obliged. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16166]]></link><description><![CDATA[By flatterers besieged And so obliging that he ne'er obliged.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16166</guid></item></channel></rss>
