Therefore, the true way for you to find Christ is not to go groping in a thousand books. It is not for you to try evidences about a thousand things that people have believed of Him, but it is for you to undertake so great a life, so devoted a life, so pure a life, so serviceable a life, that you cannot do it except by Christ, and then see whether Christ helps you. See then whether there comes to you the certainty that you are a child of God, and the manifestation of the child of God becomes the most credible, the most certain thing to you in all of history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our mission ... is to help people better understand and value their freedoms so they can protect and defend them. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our mission ... is to help people better understand and value their freedoms so they can protect and defend them.
