This fact ought not to be taken to imply, however, that such an effort is unjustifiable and necessarily useless. The distinctiveness of the Biblical approach is its immediacy. The theistic proofs for God's existence constitute a laborious, painstaking, and patient justification of theism. They attempt to set forth in rational argument what the soul grasps intuitively. But for the Bible, the deepest proof of God's existence is just life itself. The knowledge of God and man's knowledge of himself are closely intertwined. If only God could be written off neatly and cleanly, how simple things would be! But the hound of heaven pads after us all. He does not let us go. There is no escaping him...; when least expected, he closes in. The explanation for this is man's creation in the image of God. His identity is known theologically, in relation to the God who as a man in his true significance cannot survive permanently in isolation from his Maker. Without God, man is the chance product of unthinking fate, and so of little worth. The current loss of identity and the emergence of the faceless man in today's culture are testimony to the effects of losing our God. The knowledge of God is given in the same movement in which we know ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9743]]></link><description><![CDATA[I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before you give up, think of the reason why you held on so long. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before you give up, think of the reason why you held on so long.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The seal went into the restaurant and was askedby the waiter if he would like a Canadian Clubon the rocks. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20116]]></link><description><![CDATA[The seal went into the restaurant and was askedby the waiter if he would like a Canadian Clubon the rocks. He repliedno thank you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Singing and rejoicing, As aye since time began,  The dying earth's last poet   Shall be the earth's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Singing and rejoicing, As aye since time began,  The dying earth's last poet   Shall be the earth's last man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44319]]></link><description><![CDATA[My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
