One side of Christ's work will appeal most to one mind, another to another. The mistake that is often made by those who speak most about Christian experience is that they are so apt to insist upon everyone else's experience -- on penalty of its utter worthlessness -- being exactly the same as their own. The great thing is that we should be attracted by Christ in some way, that we should come to God in that spirit of penitence which Christ taught was the one condition of acceptance with Him, and with that steady purpose of amendment which is, as he always taught, a part of true penitence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance of all things is an evil neither terrible nor excessive, nor yet the greatest of all; but great cleverness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8864]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance of all things is an evil neither terrible nor excessive, nor yet the greatest of all; but great cleverness and much learning, if they be accompanied by a bad training, are a much greater misfortune.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8864</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no course of life so weak and sottish as that which is managed by order, method, and discipline. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2839]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no course of life so weak and sottish as that which is managed by order, method, and discipline.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Challenges make you discover things about yourself that you never really knew.

It is not enough to express formal belief in the "Incarnation" or in the "Divinity of. Christ"; the staggering truth must be accepted afresh -- that in this vast, mysterious universe, of which we are an almost infinitesimal part, the great Mystery, Whom we call God, has visited our planet in Person. It is from this conviction that there springs unconquerable certainty and unquenchable faith and hope. It is not enough to believe theoretically that Jesus was both God and Man; not enough to admire, respect, and even worship Him; it is not even enough to try to follow Him. The reason for the insufficiency of these things is that the modern intelligent mind, which has had its horizons widened in dozens of different ways, has got to be shocked afresh by the audacious central Fact -- that, as a sober matter of history, God became one of us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7942</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who is the happiest of men?
