All we can do is believe or disbelieve; to give it in our life the place of the final reality to which everything else must give way, or to refuse it that place. Many people ... would like to talk the Word of God over. It raises in their minds various questions they would willingly discuss. It has aspects of interest and of difficulty which call for consideration; and so on. Perhaps there are some that confusedly shield themselves against the responsibilities of faith and unbelief by such thoughts. All that such thoughts prove, however, is that those who cherish them have never yet realized that what we are dealing with in the Gospel is GOD. When God speaks in Christ, He reveals His gracious will without qualification. And without qualification, we have to believe in it, or refuse to believe, and so decide the controversy between ourselves and Him. God has not come into the world in Christ ... to be talked about, but to become the supreme reality on the life of men, or to be excluded from that place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8024</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The universe is not required to be in perfect harmony with human ambition. . -Carl Sagan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55068]]></link><description><![CDATA[The universe is not required to be in perfect harmony with human ambition. . -Carl Sagan.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62968]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just got hot.
