How, then, is it with you and me? Be very sure that upon Calvary it was no strange, immoral favouritism that came into operation, whereby because of some beliefs that remain mere dead letters, that produce no change whatever in their characters, some people living the same kind of life as others and following the same selfish interests and ends as they, are given a destiny entirely different. That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43265]]></link><description><![CDATA[Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a 'Life of Brian' comes out with Muhammad in the lead role, directed by an Arab equivalent of Theo ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29766]]></link><description><![CDATA[When a 'Life of Brian' comes out with Muhammad in the lead role, directed by an Arab equivalent of Theo van Gogh, it will be a huge step forward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beneath the ivorytowers of Harvardare the catacombsin which a hundredthousand mice are caged. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16449]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beneath the ivorytowers of Harvardare the catacombsin which a hundredthousand mice are caged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is a force more formidable than any other.

A great many people sermonising in our churches today would be better off and of greater service if they absolved themselves from the bondage and disciplines of the pulpit and came down among their congregations, teaching informally on sounder educational principles. After all, the vital matter in the ministry of the Word is not that a clergyman delivers himself of a discourse but that the people to whom he ministers end up being taught something. The tragedy is that the professional clergy have been trained to sermonise and they seem overwhelmed with fears and a sense of insecurity when they contemplate other methods. A further problem, of course, is that most of our churches contain a significant number of people who become emotionally disturbed at any departure from what they have always done in the past. To them, the sermon is part of their Christianity -- even if it bores them stiff!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't be a professor and talk out of a textbook to teach locomotive operations.
