Some followers of the Rev. R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannnot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philosopher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or he must deny the present union between God and Man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Until we meet again, may the good Lord take a liking to you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Until we meet again, may the good Lord take a liking to you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The secret of success lies not in doing your own work, but in recognizing the right man to do it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55007]]></link><description><![CDATA[The secret of success lies not in doing your own work, but in recognizing the right man to do it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221   The mystery revealed, in a unique degree ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6690]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221   The mystery revealed, in a unique degree and form, in Christ's life, is really a universal spiritual human law: the law of suffering and sacrifice, as the one way to joy and possession, which has existed, though veiled till now, since the foundation of the world.   ... Friedrich von Hügel August 9, 2000 Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   When evangelicals call the Bible "inerrant", part at least of their meaning is this: that, in exegesis and exposition of Scripture and in building up our biblical theology from the fruits of our Bible study, we may not (1) deny, disregard, or arbitrarily relativize, anything that the biblical writers teach, nor (2) discount any of the practical implications for worship and service that their teaching carries, nor (3) cut the knot of any problem of Bible harmony, factual or theological, by allowing ourselves to assume that the inspired writers were not necessarily consistent either with themselves or with each other. It is because the word "inerrant" makes these methodological points about handling the Bible, ruling out in advance the use of mental procedures that can only lead to reduced and distorted versions of Christianity, that it is so valuable and, I think, so much valued by those who embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is there a tongue like Delia's o'er her cup, That runs for ages without winding up? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59492]]></link><description><![CDATA[Is there a tongue like Delia's o'er her cup, That runs for ages without winding up?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59492</guid></item></channel></rss>
