Such an encounter with the historical Jesus is, of course, not the same as Christian faith in him. Even Caiaphas, Herod, and Pontius Pilate encountered him in this way. Christian faith is still a matter of decision -- either this Man is God's redemptive act, or he is not. Nor is the historical Jesus the object of our faith. That object is the Risen Christ preached by the Church. But the Risen Christ is in continuity with the historical Jesus, and it is the historical Jesus which makes the Risen Christ not just an abstraction, but clothes him with flesh and blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Read my lips.

Certainly Jeremiah was no integrated personality. It is doubtful if... he ever knew the meaning of the word "peace". We have no evidence that his internal struggle was ever ended, although the passing years no doubt brought an increasing acceptance of destiny. Jeremiah, if his "confessions" are any index, needed a course in pastoral psychiatry in the very worst way... The feeling cannot be escaped that if Jeremiah had been integrated, it would have been at the cost of ceasing to be Jeremiah! A man at peace simply could not be a Jeremiah. Spiritual health is good; mental assurance is good; but the summons of faith is neither to an integrated personality nor to the laying-by of all questions, but to the dedication of personality -- with all its fears and questions -- to its duty and destiny under God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a one-way street, and we are not coming back. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a one-way street, and we are not coming back.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51891]]></link><description><![CDATA[But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them: Then I will cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:  And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath the Lord done thus unto this land, and to this house?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too many people regard prayer as a formalized routine of words, a refuge for weaklings, or a childish petition for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6901]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too many people regard prayer as a formalized routine of words, a refuge for weaklings, or a childish petition for material things. We sadly undervalue prayer when we conceive it in these terms, just as we should underestimate rain by describing it as something that fills the birdbath in our garden. Properly understood, prayer is a mature activity indispensable to the fullest development of personality -- the ultimate integration of man's highest faculties. Only in prayer do we achieve that complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind and spirit which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strengths.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was ever precise in promise-keeping. -Measure for Measure.
