If we admit that men can do very well without Christ, we accept the Saviour only as a luxury for ourselves. If they can do very well without Christ, then so could we. This is to turn our backs upon the Christ of the gospels and the Christ of Acts and to turn our faces towards law, morality, philosophy, natural religion. We look at the moral teaching of some of the heathen nations and we find it higher than we had expected... Or we look at morality in Christian lands, and we begin to wonder whether our practice is really much higher than theirs, and we say, "They are very well as they are. Leave them alone." When we so speak and think we are treating the question of the salvation of men exactly as we should have treated it had Christ never appeared in the world at all. It is an essentially pre-Christian attitude, and implies that the Son of God has not been delivered for our salvation. It suggests that the one and only way of salvation known to me is to keep the commandments. That was indeed true before the coming of the Son of God, before the Passion, before the Resurrection, before Pentecost; but after Pentecost that is no longer true. After Pentecost, the answer to any man who inquires the way of salvation is no longer "Keep the law," but "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7731</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A tale in everything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57930]]></link><description><![CDATA[A tale in everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Christina Rossetti, Poet, 1894 "I have not sought Thee, I have not found Thee,  I have not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7244]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Christina Rossetti, Poet, 1894 "I have not sought Thee, I have not found Thee,  I have not thirsted for Thee: And now cold billows of death surround me, Buffeting billows of death astound me,  Wilt Thou look upon, wilt Thou see  Thy perishing me?"
