What would it be to taste at the fountain-head that stream of which even these lower reaches prove so intoxicating? Yet that, I believe, is what lies before us. As St. Augustine said, the rapture of the saved soul will "flow over" into the glorified body. In the light of our present specialized and depraved appetites, we cannot imagine this [torrent of pleasure], and I warn everyone most seriously not to try. But it must be mentioned, to drive out thoughts even more misleading--thoughts that what is saved is a mere ghost, or that the risen body lives in numb insensibility. The body is made for the Lord, and these dismal fancies are wide of the mark.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60976]]></link><description><![CDATA[No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The seas are quiet when the winds give o'er; So calm are we when passions are no more! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45619]]></link><description><![CDATA[The seas are quiet when the winds give o'er; So calm are we when passions are no more!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth?
