Sin also appears in attitudes and dispositions and feelings. Lust and hate are sins as well as adultery and murder. And, in the traditional Christian view, despair and chronic boredom -- unaccompanied by any vicious act -- are serious sins. They are expressions of man's separation from God, as the ultimate good, meaning, and end of human existence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give me matter, and I will construct a world out of it! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62220]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give me matter, and I will construct a world out of it!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To what fortuitous occurrence do we not owe every pleasure and convenience of our lives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8710]]></link><description><![CDATA[To what fortuitous occurrence do we not owe every pleasure and convenience of our lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mankind always sets itself only such tasks as it can solve; since, looking at the matter more closely, we will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9560]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mankind always sets itself only such tasks as it can solve; since, looking at the matter more closely, we will always find that the task itself arises only when the material conditions necessary for its solution already exist or are at least in the process of formation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years.

David Bronnert, who was quoted in CQOD at the beginning of the month, has kindly sent me the following meditation taken from the church magazine of St. John's Church, Southall, in London, where he serves as vicar, living out, under God, the previous quotation he wrote thirty years ago. I am grateful to brother David for sending me this timely teaching so that I could present it to you. The light shines in the darkness   Candles are always popular for giving a warm romantic glow and this time of year they are to be seen on many different occasions. Of course a candle is easy to blow out! So much so that its flickering light was chosen by Shakespeare as a picture of the transitory nature of life. Out out brief candle!   Darkness is a reminder of evil, for it is in the darkness that people get lost, stumble and fall. It is in the darkness that power is misused, corruption reigns and evil is done. It is easy to imagine that in the end evil will triumph and the light will disappear. Situations change. Familiar landmarks -- like this magazine! -- disappear. There is the unrelenting pressure of a vanity fair society. The candle burns down and gives a thin wisp of smoke before going out.   But there are also the special party candles that keep bursting back into life. They are a much better picture of the light of the gospel! For though they have been numerous attempts down the centuries to extinguish the light, it has kept on bursting back into flame.   The light of Christ keeps on shining. New ways of sharing the good news come along. New believers are attracted to his light. Sleepy Christians are re-awakened. Fresh discoveries give even more confidence in the truth of the Bible.   The light keeps on shining in the darkness. It is a statement and a promise at the same time. It is isn't that once the light shone, but rather, that in the present it shines, and it will do so in the future as well. For the light comes from the one who is, as well as who was, and is also the one who is to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My wish isn't to mean everything to everyone but something to someone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61772]]></link><description><![CDATA[My wish isn't to mean everything to everyone but something to someone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61772</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who bite the hand that feeds them usually lick the boot that kicks them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56875]]></link><description><![CDATA[People who bite the hand that feeds them usually lick the boot that kicks them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56875</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Six or seven months ago, I didn't think I'd be up here talking about a new basketball coach. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39971]]></link><description><![CDATA[Six or seven months ago, I didn't think I'd be up here talking about a new basketball coach.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39971</guid></item></channel></rss>
