Life is a process of becoming, and the moment of death is the transition from one life to another. Thus it is possible for a Christian to succumb to his own kind of death-wish, to seek that extreme of other-worldliness to which the faith has always been liable, especially in periods of stress and uncertainty. There may appear a marked preoccupation with death and a rejection of all temporal things. To say that this world is in a fallen state and that not too much value must be set upon it, is very far from the Manichaean error of supposing it to be evil throughout. The Christian hope finds ambivalence in death: that which destroys, also redeems.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a poet or an artist puts himself into his Productions he is criticized.

But that is exactly what God does, he does so in Christ. And precisely that is Christianity. The creation was really only completed when God included himself in it.

But the creation was completed by the Incarnation because God thereby included himself in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17692]]></link><description><![CDATA[God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7368]]></link><description><![CDATA[To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57134]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth it off.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is my hope that the 2006 Season of Justice will not only be a time to raise awareness on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29044]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is my hope that the 2006 Season of Justice will not only be a time to raise awareness on our campus and in our community about justice issues around the world, but also a time for spiritual growth.

It remains the great problem of interpretation, hitherto never entirely solved, how to unite these two things: the keen attention to what Paul wanted to say to that community then, and the search for what God wants to say to us through Paul today. In the end, the question is whether the reader will really allow God to speak to him, or whether he evades God by hiding behind "Paul", behind "the past".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any time you have a chance to play the team that's won the conference 50 times in a row, or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30256]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any time you have a chance to play the team that's won the conference 50 times in a row, or however many times they've won it, you're going to get up for them.
