Utopias are the straws to which those cling who have no real hope; utopias are as unattractive as they are incredible, for those who know what real hope is. Utopias are not a consequence of true hope but a poor substitute for it and therefore a hindrance and not a help. The hope that is in Jesus Christ is different from all utopias of universal progress. It is based on the revelation of the crucified one. It is, therefore, not an uncertain speculation about the future but a certainty based upon what God has already revealed. One cannot believe in Jesus Christ without knowing for certain that God's victory over all powers of destruction, including death, is the end towards which the time process moves as its own end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fool must now and then be right by chance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16335]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fool must now and then be right by chance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in everything until it's disproved.

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[Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941  What is said in the passage [James 2:14 ff.] is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7094]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941  What is said in the passage [James 2:14 ff.] is like a two coupon train or bus ticket.

It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little.
