We are speaking of the proper relationship to the living God who exists. In order to understand the problems of our generation, we should be very alive to this distinction. Semantics (linguistic analysis) makes up the heart of modern philosophical study in the Anglo-Saxon world. Though the Christian cannot accept this study as a total philosophy, there is no reason why he should not be glad for the concept that words need to be defined before they can be used in communication. As Christians, we must understand that there is no word so meaningless as the word "god" until it is defined. No word has been used to reach absolutely opposite concepts as much as the word "god". Consequently, let us not be confused. There is much "spirituality" about us today that would relate itself to the word god or to the idea god; but this is not what we are talking about. Biblical truth and spirituality is not a relationship to the word god, or to the idea god. It is a relationship to the one who is there, which is an entirely different concept.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only by acceptance of the past, can you alter it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only by acceptance of the past, can you alter it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do not mind lying, but I hate inaccuracy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26136]]></link><description><![CDATA[I do not mind lying, but I hate inaccuracy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The poppy opes her scarlet purse of dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47684]]></link><description><![CDATA[The poppy opes her scarlet purse of dreams.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At school I was pretty sociable, but I did like to come home and be on my own and make ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33684]]></link><description><![CDATA[At school I was pretty sociable, but I did like to come home and be on my own and make music and write my dreams down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mosquitoes remind us that we are not as high up on the food chain as we think ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16345]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mosquitoes remind us that we are not as high up on the food chain as we think]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Elk existed at one time in 48 of the 50 states.

Was there really an ordained ministry as early as that? We need not argue about whether, or how, St. Paul was ordained, but he certainly considered that he and his fellow workers had a special pastoral relation to their converts.... St. Paul was primarily a missionary, which in itself establishes a link with the Servant of the Lord. As a missionary, he was not working on his own, but was supported by a group of assistants without whose help he could never have carried on his work. We know the names of many of them... But there were many more whose names we do not know, sometimes referred to as "the brethren" (e.g., in I Cor. 16:11). This missionary group with St. Paul as its leader is the New Testament equivalent of the ordained ministry of today, and it is significant for us that St. Paul describes this group as carrying out in some sense the work of servants in the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Idealist: One who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20252]]></link><description><![CDATA[Idealist: One who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better soup]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time Bomb. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33191]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time Bomb.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The oaks with solemnity shook their heads; The twigs of the birch-trees, in token  Of warning, nodded,--and I exclaim'd: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44717]]></link><description><![CDATA[The oaks with solemnity shook their heads; The twigs of the birch-trees, in token  Of warning, nodded,--and I exclaim'd:   "Dear Monarch, forgive what I've spoken!"]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have heard that Tiberius used to say that that man was ridiculous, who after sixth years, appealed to a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26705]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have heard that Tiberius used to say that that man was ridiculous, who after sixth years, appealed to a physician.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Ambrose, Bishop of Milan, Teacher, 397   To the good man to die is gain.

It is personal, with things happening between people as well as to and in them individually; it is compassionate, always eager to help, observant but non judgmental toward others, breathing out hope and concern; it is creative, with imagination about each one in the group and its work as a whole, watching for authentic new vision coming from any of them; and it is expectant, always seeking to offer to God open and believing hearts and minds through which He can work out His will, either in the sometimes startling miracles He gives or in steady purpose through long stretches where there is no special "opening". It may fairly be said that unless one enmeshes himself in this "redemptive fellowship" of the church, he lessens his chances of steady growth and effectiveness, in his Christian life and experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Suicide would be my way of telling God that I quit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11357]]></link><description><![CDATA[Suicide would be my way of telling God that I quit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11357</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The latest chip helps us go after the Web and application tier in the data center, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34798]]></link><description><![CDATA[The latest chip helps us go after the Web and application tier in the data center,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34798</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think a good gift for the President would be a chocolate revolver. and since he is so busy, you'd ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11713]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think a good gift for the President would be a chocolate revolver. and since he is so busy, you'd probably have to run up to him real quick and give it to him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one makes a Revolution, one cannot mark time; one must always go forward -- or go back.
