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[Your voice dries up if you don't use it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your voice dries up if you don't use it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bear and forbear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bear and forbear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where your will is ready, your feete are light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50085]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where your will is ready, your feete are light.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50085</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is one single fact which we may oppose to all the wit and argument of infidelity, namely, that no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8347]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is one single fact which we may oppose to all the wit and argument of infidelity, namely, that no man ever repented of being a Christian on his death bed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, could I flow like thee! and make thy stream My great example, as it is my theme;  Though ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58977]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, could I flow like thee! and make thy stream My great example, as it is my theme;  Though deep yet clear, though gentle yet not dull;   Strong without rage, without o'erflowing full.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want to give her a chance.
