Therefore, the true way for you to find Christ is not to go groping in a thousand books. It is not for you to try evidences about a thousand things that people have believed of Him, but it is for you to undertake so great a life, so devoted a life, so pure a life, so serviceable a life, that you cannot do it except by Christ, and then see whether Christ helps you. See then whether there comes to you the certainty that you are a child of God, and the manifestation of the child of God becomes the most credible, the most certain thing to you in all of history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Better times perhaps await us who are now wretched. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51784]]></link><description><![CDATA[Better times perhaps await us who are now wretched.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51784</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I could imagine it would be sold out very quickly.

And when they are wicked, the Humanitarian theory of punishment will put in their hands a finer instrument of tyranny than wickedness ever had before. For if crime and disease are to be regarded as the same thing, it follows that any state of mind which our masters choose to call 'disease' can be treated as crime, and compulsorily cured. It will be vain to plead that states of mind which displease the government need not always involve moral turpitude and do not therefore always deserve forfeiture of liberty. For our masters will not be using the concepts of Desert and Punishment but those of disease and cure.
