Increasingly I rejoiced in the Gospel -- the amazing Good News -- that the Creator of what to us human beings is this bewildering and unimaginably vast universe, so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Everlasting life, I came to see, is not just continued existence, but a growing knowledge -- not merely intellectual but wondering through trust, love, and fellowship -- of Him who alone is truly God, and Jesus Christ whom He has sent. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6312</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My books need no one to accuse or judge you: the page which is yours stands up against you and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46642]]></link><description><![CDATA[My books need no one to accuse or judge you: the page which is yours stands up against you and says, "You are a thief."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O sweet September, they first breezes bring the dry leaf's rustle and the squirrel's laughter, the cool fresh air whence ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35618]]></link><description><![CDATA[O sweet September, they first breezes bring the dry leaf's rustle and the squirrel's laughter, the cool fresh air whence health and vigor spring and promise of exceeding joy hereafter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world will not be saved merely because people go to church, ours or any other's.

The first is its compromised, deficient understanding of revelation. Without Biblical historicity and veracity behind the Word of God, theology can only grow closer to Hinduism. Second, the modern Christian is drastically weak in an unmediated, persona. experiential knowledge of God. Often, what passes for religious experience is a communal emotion felt in church services, in meetings, in singing or contrived fellowship. Few Christians would know God on their own. Third, the modern church is often pathetically feeble in the expression of its focal principle of community. It has become an adult social club, preaching shop, or minister-dominated group. With these weaknesses, modern Christianity cannot hope to understand why people have turned to the East, let alone stand against the trend and offer an alternative.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All the world 's a stage, And all the men and women merely players.

They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms. And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard; Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything. -As You Like It. Act ii. Sc. 7.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shaken-soldier syndrome is a traumatic brain injury that shows in veterans who have survived roadside blasts.

Their one apparent purpose, pursued with a relentless and furious diligence, is to convert the assumption into a fact.

The moment they become aware of a definite citizen, John Doe, seeking what is his right under the law, they begin searching feverishly for an excuse for withholding it from him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us, then, be up and doing, with a heart for any fate; still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/378]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us, then, be up and doing, with a heart for any fate; still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor and to wait.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Writers are typically self-conscious at the time of their first publication.
