The whole transaction of religious conversion has been made mechanical and spiritless. Faith may now be exercised without a jar to the moral life and without embarrassment to the Adamic ego. Christ may be "received" without creating any special love for Him in the soul of the receiver. The man is "saved", but he is not hungry or thirsty after God. In fact, he is specifically taught to be satisfied and encouraged to be content with little. The modern scientist has lost God amid the wonders of His world; we Christians are in real danger of losing God amid the wonders of His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Slow rises worth by poverty depressed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50413]]></link><description><![CDATA[Slow rises worth by poverty depressed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50413</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, the summer night Has a smile of light  And she sits on a sapphire throne. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, the summer night Has a smile of light  And she sits on a sapphire throne.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10013]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24436]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ambition often puts men upon doing the meanest offices; so climbing is performed in the same position with creeping. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2374]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ambition often puts men upon doing the meanest offices; so climbing is performed in the same position with creeping.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41485]]></link><description><![CDATA[Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obscenity is in the crotch of the beholder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43113]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obscenity is in the crotch of the beholder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That make the meadows green; and, poured round all, Old Ocean's gray and melancholy waste,--  Are but the solemn ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44877]]></link><description><![CDATA[That make the meadows green; and, poured round all, Old Ocean's gray and melancholy waste,--  Are but the solemn decorations all   Of the great tomb of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O brave poets, keep back nothing; Nor mix falsehood with the whole!  Look up Godward! speak the truth in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46844]]></link><description><![CDATA[O brave poets, keep back nothing; Nor mix falsehood with the whole!  Look up Godward! speak the truth in   Worthy song from earnest soul!    Hold, in high poetic duty,     Truest Truth the fairest Beauty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Teaching and parenting have always gone hand-in-hand in helping to develop young people's ability to make good choices as they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38612]]></link><description><![CDATA[Teaching and parenting have always gone hand-in-hand in helping to develop young people's ability to make good choices as they move into young adulthood.

If, after all His claims and promises, Christ had died and merely lived on as a fragrant memory, He would only be revered as an extremely good but profoundly mistaken man. His claims to be God, His claims to be Himself the very principle of life, would be mere self-delusion. His authoritative pronouncements on the nature of God and Man and Life would be at once suspect. Why should He be right about the lesser things, if He was proved to be completely wrong in the greater?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some men are just as sure of the truth of their opinions as are others of what they know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45013]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some men are just as sure of the truth of their opinions as are others of what they know.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Re-examine all you have been told . . .
