Expressed more sharply, he has a strong sense of the Creator-creature distinction, never of merging or absorption. Or, to put it more sharply still, a Christian has a sense of his moral sin and not just of his metaphysical smallness in the face of the beyond. The dilemma for man is not who he is but what he has done. His predicament is not that he is small, but that he is sinful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Innocence is like polished armor; it adorns and defends. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20969]]></link><description><![CDATA[Innocence is like polished armor; it adorns and defends.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20969</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weep over the graves of infants and the little ones taken from us by death; but an early grave ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18228]]></link><description><![CDATA[We weep over the graves of infants and the little ones taken from us by death; but an early grave may be the shortest way to heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our current obsession with creativity is the result of our continued striving for immortality in an era when most people ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our current obsession with creativity is the result of our continued striving for immortality in an era when most people no longer believe in an after-life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thank God, I have done my duty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24121]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thank God, I have done my duty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Old-Testament doctrine of salvation gives us no encouragement, on strictly hermeneutical grounds, to argue from what was true politically ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6719]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Old-Testament doctrine of salvation gives us no encouragement, on strictly hermeneutical grounds, to argue from what was true politically of Israel to what could or should be true of any modern political state. Even if we were first to grant the presence of a "Christendom" situation [where] Church and State would be virtually coextensive, the nation of Israel would still remain unique. The focus of salvation is on the historical action of God in forming a people for Himself, and there is no indication anywhere in the Bible that God promises political salvation even inside the context of the full salvation of His people, let alone outside it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cellar Roots is not just for art and writing majors at EMU.
