The prophets, for all their passionate sincerity, for all their courageous simplifyings of the Gospel, will meet many deaf adders who stop their ears. We must reckon with this certain fact, and refuse to be daunted by it. But also there comes a point where accommodation can go no further. It is the Gospel we have to present, however we do it. We cannot hope to do it unless we walk humbly with the modern man, as well as with God, unless we are much more eager to learn from him and about him, than to instruct him. God help us, it is all very difficult. But was there ever a task better worth trying to do, or one in which, whether we fail or succeed, we more surely find our freedom?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortunately this game was against Dixie.

You will not stroll into Christlikeness with your hands in your pockets, shoving the door open with a careless shoulder. This is no hobby for one's leisure moments, taken up at intervals when we have nothing much to do, and put down and forgotten when our life grows full and interesting... It takes all one's strength, and all one's heart, and all one's mind, and all one's soul, given freely and recklessly and without restraint. This is a business for adventurous spirits; others would shrink out of it. And so Christ had a way of pulling up would-be recruits with sobering and disconcerting questions, of meeting applicants -- breathless and panting in their eagerness -- by asking them if they really thought they had the grit, the stamina, the gallantry, required. For many, He explained, begin, but quickly become cowed, and slink away, leaving a thing unfinished as a pathetic monument of their own lack of courage and of staying power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Advice, First Law of: The correct advice to give is the advice that is desired. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24350]]></link><description><![CDATA[Advice, First Law of: The correct advice to give is the advice that is desired.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The show will lose $16 million this year. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35285]]></link><description><![CDATA[The show will lose $16 million this year.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35285</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is to be along; this, this is solitude! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57164]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is to be along; this, this is solitude!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of herbs, and other country messes, Which the neat-handed Phillis dresses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10138]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of herbs, and other country messes, Which the neat-handed Phillis dresses.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66007]]></link><description><![CDATA[One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59344]]></link><description><![CDATA[This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Please provide the date of your death. (From An IRS Letter) ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28155]]></link><description><![CDATA[Please provide the date of your death. (From An IRS Letter)]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28155</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can have all the intelligence in the world and don't have enough stamina.

We are bound to Him, and not He to us, because before He was loved, He loved us... There it is, then: we cannot... love Him with this first love. Yet I say that God demands of us, that as He has loved us without any second thoughts, so He should be loved by us. In what way can we do this, then? ... I tell you, through a means which he has established, by which we can love Him freely; ... that is, we can be useful, not to Him -- which is impossible -- but to our neighbor... To show the love that we have for Him, we ought to serve and love every rational creature and extend our charity to good and bad -- as much to one who does us ill service and criticizes us as to one who serves us. For, His charity extends over just men and sinners.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An enemy is anyone who tells the truth about you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13864]]></link><description><![CDATA[An enemy is anyone who tells the truth about you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not hate, but glory, made these chiefs contend; And each brave foe was in his soul a friend. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9966]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not hate, but glory, made these chiefs contend; And each brave foe was in his soul a friend.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14294]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By broadening their programming (with more entertainment-oriented shows) and still keeping it under the legal drama umbrella that their niche ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30405]]></link><description><![CDATA[By broadening their programming (with more entertainment-oriented shows) and still keeping it under the legal drama umbrella that their niche is, they've been able to generate higher ratings.

First, that He was a Sabbath-breaker. Secondly, that He was "a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners" -- or (to draw aside the veil of Elizabethan English that makes it sound so much more respectable) that He ate too heartily, drank too freely, and kept very disreputable company, including grafters of the lowest type and ladies who were no better than they should be. For nineteen and a half centuries, the Christian Churches have laboured, not without success, to remove this unfortunate impression made by their Lord and Master. They have hustled the Magdalens from the Communion-table, founded Total Abstinence Societies in the name of Him who made the water wine, and added improvements of their own, such as various bans and anathemas upon dancing and theatre-going. They have transferred the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday, and, feeling that the original commandment "Thou shalt not work" was rather half-hearted, have added to it the new commandment, "Thou shalt not play.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7289</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[American is the crucible of God.
