The truth about man is that his ground is not in himself but in God -- that his essence is not in self sufficient reason but in the Word, in the challenge of God, in responsibility, not in self-sufficiency. The true being of man is realized when he bases himself upon God's Word. Faith is then not an impossibility or a salto mortale [mortal leap], but that which is truly natural; and the real salto mortale (a mortal leap indeed!) is just the assertion of autonomy, self-sufficiency, God-likeness. [It is] through this usurped independence [that] man separates himself from God, and at the same time isolates himself from his fellows. Individualism is the necessary consequence of rational autonomy, just as love is the necessary consequence of faith.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5113]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66377]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66377</guid></item></channel></rss>
