Forgiveness is God's idea, God's desire; and it is He who appoints both the Judge and the Counsel for the Defense. It was He who inaugurated the priestly work, that men might receive His cleansing and turn to the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the world. God has provided for himself a Lamb. It is He who sends His Son to be our Elder Brother, and to incorporate us as adopted sons into the circle of His Fatherly love. So then it is the voice of His beloved Son which is most clearly heard by the Father in heaven. In that voice of intercession, all the voices of intercession are contained and heard. The Son is talking to the Father about us, and what He says is not Please but Yes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To me education is a leading out of what is already there in the pupil's soul.

We have no reason to mistrust the New Testament assurance. The Easter message and the historical Jesus are joined by a bridge resting on many piers. Jesus proclaimed the good news of the presence of God who, like a forgiving father, seeks his lost children and grants even sinners the company of the Redeemer; the disciples preached the Gospel of Christ, who appeared as saviour and died on the cross for sinners. In the Holy Spirit Jesus drove out unclean spirits and conquered Satan; from Easter onwards he was extolled as the Lord of all spirits, who gives the Holy Spirit to believers and in him is ever present with them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An honest God is the noblest work of man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17702]]></link><description><![CDATA[An honest God is the noblest work of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Aziz's patrol continues on past one of the two main mosques in Karmah.
