Nor need we shrink from confessing that our Lord was justly open to such reproach, unless He was indeed Divine, unless He was deliberately preparing His followers for that astonishing revelation, soon to come, which threw the Church upon her knees in adoration of her God manifest in flesh.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All politicians are control freaks; they think they own you.

The shortest possible description of a Christian -- a description with which the New Testament would fully agree -- is that a Christian is a person who can say: "For me Jesus Christ is Lord." Herbert Butterfield's words about facing the future are good: "Hold to Christ, and for the rest be totally uncommitted." Any alleged conversion which does not leave one totally committed solely to Jesus Christ is incomplete and imperfect.

Imagine an industry that consistently fails to do what it sets out to do. a factory where this year's product is invariably sleazier than last year's but, nevertheless, better than next year's. Imagine a corporation whose executives are always spending vast sums of money on studies designed to discover just what it is they are supposed to do and then vaster sums for further studies on just how to do it. Imagine a plant devoted to the manufacture of factory seconds to be sold at a loss. Imagine a producer of vacuum cleaners that rarely work hiring whole platoons of engineers who will, in time, report that it is, in fact, true that the vacuum cleaners rarely really work, and who will, for a larger fee, be glad to find out why, if that's possible. If you discover some such outfit, don't invest in it. Unfortunately, we are all required to invest in public education.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without favour none will know you, and with it you will not know your selfe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50121]]></link><description><![CDATA[Without favour none will know you, and with it you will not know your selfe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An account of some of these acts makes Henry Miller's crudest imaginations seem as chaste as a nun's diary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37094]]></link><description><![CDATA[An account of some of these acts makes Henry Miller's crudest imaginations seem as chaste as a nun's diary.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A naughty child is better sick then whole. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49063]]></link><description><![CDATA[A naughty child is better sick then whole.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One is taught by experience to put a premium on those few people who can appreciate you for what you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1272]]></link><description><![CDATA[One is taught by experience to put a premium on those few people who can appreciate you for what you are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56375]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is God's gift, that's why we call it the present. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59008]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is God's gift, that's why we call it the present.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man ever did, nor ever shall, truly go forth to convert the nations, nor to prophesy in the present ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7321]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man ever did, nor ever shall, truly go forth to convert the nations, nor to prophesy in the present state of witnesses against Antichrist, but by the gracious inspiration and instigation of the Holy Spirit of God...
