It is just here that our awareness that Jesus is our contemporary and that Calvary is relevant to our present human situation ought to help us greatly. And that is not merely because in his relationships with others during his earthly life in Palestine Jesus exemplified all that I have tried to say about human relationships. In every genuine human encounter with another person we may become aware of Jesus, and meet with him. This may sound fanciful, but there is much in the Scriptures and in Christian experience which suggests that Jesus is frequently met in the traffic of person with person, provided that there is a genuine encounter between them. Jesus himself showed that for this to happen demands courage and a willingness to move from a life that is centred in itself. So if we are to pass out of that lonely world of isolation then we must be prepared to take the risks that are always involved when we allow persons to confront us as persons and do not regard them as things. Yet, dangerous though it may be to live in this way, it is the only way to live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fear of Hell, or aiming to be blest, Savors too much of private interest.

We invoke the true God for the Emperor. Even if he persecute us, we are bidden to pray for them that persecute us, as you can read in our books, which are not hidden, which you often get hold of. We pray for him because the Empire lies between us and the end of the world. We count the Caesars to be God's vice-regents and swear by their safety (not by their genius, as required). As for loyalty, Caesar really is more ours than yours; for it was our God who set him up. It is for his own good, that we refuse to call the Emperor God; Father of his Country is a better title. No Christian has ever made a plot against a Caesar; the famous conspirators and assassins were heathen, one and all. Piety, religion, faith are our best offering of loyalty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we cannot reach an agreement, God forbid, the constitution will be put to the Iraqi people on October 15. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36218]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we cannot reach an agreement, God forbid, the constitution will be put to the Iraqi people on October 15.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes.
