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[I never let a rhinestone go unturned ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4046]]></link><description><![CDATA[I never let a rhinestone go unturned]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adam was a development project.

He will only do harm to himself and to the community. Alone you stood before God when He called you; alone you had to answer that call; alone you had to struggle and pray; and alone you will die and give an account to God. You cannot escape yourself; for God has singled you out. If you refuse to be alone, you are rejecting Christ's call to you, and you can have no part in the community of those who are called.... Let him who is not in community beware of being alone. Into the community you were called -- the call was not meant for you alone; in the community of the called you bear your cross, you struggle, you pray. You are not alone even in death, and on the Last Day you will be only one of the great congregation of Jesus Christ. If you scorn the fellowship of the brethren, you reject the call of Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only normal people are the ones you don't know very well. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3991]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only normal people are the ones you don't know very well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In blissful dream, in silent night, There came to me, with magic might,  With magic might, my own sweet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12874]]></link><description><![CDATA[In blissful dream, in silent night, There came to me, with magic might,  With magic might, my own sweet love,   Into my little room above.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today I have grown taller from walking with the trees. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today I have grown taller from walking with the trees.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had a good decade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30475]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had a good decade.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us have faith that Right makes Might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54248]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us have faith that Right makes Might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tennis is a perfect combination of violent action taking place in an atmosphere of total tranquillity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58955]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tennis is a perfect combination of violent action taking place in an atmosphere of total tranquillity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My parents are here for my education.
