Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalized by reason.

I don't want a football player who doesn't take defeat to heart, who laughs it off with the thought, 'Oh, well, there's another Saturday.' The trouble in American life today, in business as well as in sports, is that too many people are afraid of competition.

The Love Feast, which should have been the sign and symbol of perfect unity, has become a thing of divisions and class distinctions. And here there is something which only the newer translations reveal. In the older translations, it is said that to eat and drink at the sacrament without discerning the Lord's body is the way to judgment and not to salvation. But in the best Greek text, the word Lord's is not included. The sin is not to discern the body; that is to say, not to discern that the church is a body, not to be aware of the oneness of the church, not to be aware of the togetherness in which all its members should be joined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We see that our whole salvation and all its parts are comprehended in Christ.

We should therefore take care not to derive the least portion of it from anywhere else. If we seek salvation, we are taught by the very name of Jesus that it is "of him". If we seek any other gifts of the Spirit, they will be found in his anointing. If we seek strength, it lies in his dominion; if purity, in his conception; if gentleness, it appears in his birth. For by his birth he was made like us in all respects that he might learn to feel our pain. If we seek redemption, it lies in his passion; if acquittal, in his condemnation; if remission of the curse, in his cross; if satisfaction, in his sacrifice; if purification, in his blood; if reconciliation, in his descent into hell; if mortification of the flesh, in his tomb; if newness of life, in his resurrection; if immortality, in the same; if inheritance of the Heavenly Kingdom, in his entrance into heaven; if protection, if security, if abundant supply of all blessings, in his Kingdom; if untroubled expectation of judgment, in the power given to him to judge. In short, since rich store of every kind of good abounds in him, let us drink our fill from this fountain, and from no other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All our words from loose using have lost their edge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63428]]></link><description><![CDATA[All our words from loose using have lost their edge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No crime is vulgar, but all vulgarity is crime ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61038]]></link><description><![CDATA[No crime is vulgar, but all vulgarity is crime]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't brood on the past, but don't forget it either. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45689]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't brood on the past, but don't forget it either.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The parachute was purchased by Stephen and he was very safety conscious, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32061]]></link><description><![CDATA[The parachute was purchased by Stephen and he was very safety conscious,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You won't realize the distance you've walked until you take a look around and realize how far you've been. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21055]]></link><description><![CDATA[You won't realize the distance you've walked until you take a look around and realize how far you've been.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41192]]></link><description><![CDATA[The highest qualities of character must be earned]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41192</guid></item></channel></rss>
