It is certainly important to have an intellectual grasp of the orb of Christian truth; but it is still more important to have a vital, living experience of the power of Jesus Christ. When a man undergoes treatment from a doctor, he does not need to know the way in which the drug works on his body in order to be cured. There is a sense in which Christianity is like that. At the heart of Christianity there is a mystery, but it is not the mystery of intellectual appreciation; it the mystery of redemption.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vengeance comes not slowly either upon you or any other wicked man, but steals silently and imperceptibly, placing its foot ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52563]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vengeance comes not slowly either upon you or any other wicked man, but steals silently and imperceptibly, placing its foot on the bad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no short cut, nor ""royal road,"" to the attainment of medical knowledge.

It is not an idea in the air but feet on the ground going God's way. It is not an exotic to be kept under glass, but a hardy plant to bear twelve months of fruits in all kinds of weather. Fidelity to duty is its root and branch. Nothing we can say to the Lord, no calling Him by great or dear names, can take the place of the plain doing of His will. We may cry out about the beauty of eating bread with Him in His kingdom, but it is wasted breath and a rootless hope unless we plow and plant in His kingdom here and now. To remember Him at His table and to forget Him at ours, is to have invested in bad securities. There is no substitute for plain, every-day goodness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Revenge is sweeter than life itself.
