For that life is won only from death and the good only from the evil is a piece of thoroughly worldly knowledge which is not strange to the Christian. But all this has nothing to do with the temptation of which Christ speaks. It simply does not touch the reality which is meant here. The temptation of which the whole Bible speaks does not have to do with the testing of my strength, for it is of the very essence of temptation in the Bible that all my strength -- to my horror, and without my being able to do anything about it -- is turned against me; really all my powers, including my good and pious powers (the strength of my faith), fall into the hands of the enemy power and are now led into the field against me. Before there can be any testing of my powers, I have been robbed of them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11339]]></link><description><![CDATA[I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have a criminal jury system which is superior to any in the world; and its efficiency is only marred ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23665]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have a criminal jury system which is superior to any in the world; and its efficiency is only marred by the difficulty of finding twelve men every day who don't know anything and can't read.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She's been pretty clear that we need to find a solution and need to look at what the problem is, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36572]]></link><description><![CDATA[She's been pretty clear that we need to find a solution and need to look at what the problem is, and make sure we're not hurting good employers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The really idle man gets nowhere.

Our model is the Jesus, not only of Calvary, but of the workshop, the roads, the crowds, the clamorous demands and surly oppositions, the lack of all peace and privacy, the interruptions. For this, so strangely unlike anything we can attribute to the divine life in itself, is apparently not only like, but is, the divine life operating under human conditions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I find the medicine worse than the malady. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26677]]></link><description><![CDATA[I find the medicine worse than the malady.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26677</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The primary cause of the [denominational] divisions is the institutionalism and organisationalism of the churches, which, without vivifying the life ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7064]]></link><description><![CDATA[The primary cause of the [denominational] divisions is the institutionalism and organisationalism of the churches, which, without vivifying the life of the believers in them, smothers or drives it out of the ekklesia, and makes [the churches] merely dead institutions. Christians who really have life in Christ cannot exist within such a corpse and will at last have to come out of it. But in almost all cases, those who have come out of dead institutions want to have in their place another institution or other rituals and ceremonies, only repeating the same error. Instead of turning to Christ Himself as their center, they again seek to find fellowship and spiritual security on the very same basis that failed, not realizing that it is the institution that is killing, instead of producing, life in Christ.
