Although I became familiar with the contemporary and recent studies of honest, competent scholars who questioned them, I was convinced that the historical evidence confirms the virgin birth and the bodily resurrection of Christ. Increasingly, I believed that the nearest verbal approach that we human beings can come to the great mystery is to affirm that Christ is both fully man and fully God. Although now we see Him not, yet believing, we can "rejoice with joy unspeakable" in what the Triune God has done and is doing through Him. This Good News, so rich that it is stated in a variety of ways, but always consistently, in the New Testament, is what we always imperfect children, but children [yet], are privileged -- and commanded -- to make known and to demonstrate to all mankind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His work well done, the leader stepped aside Spurning a crown with more than kingly pride.  Content to wear ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61252]]></link><description><![CDATA[His work well done, the leader stepped aside Spurning a crown with more than kingly pride.  Content to wear the higher crown of worth,   While time endures, "First citizen of earth."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61252</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher, 407  The surest symbol of a heart not yet fully subdued ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6572]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher, 407  The surest symbol of a heart not yet fully subdued to God and His will is going to be found in the areas of money, sex, and power: in wanting these things for ourselves. The surest symbol of spiritual earnestness will be the checkbook, the affections, and the ego-drive surrendered to Him. A disciple must have discipline. He must not be afraid of being asked by God for some of the time, the money, and the pleasure he has been in the habit of calling his "own". This does not mean that there will not be time for the family, and time for some healthy diversion. But it does mean that we are never -- on vacation, or wherever we may be -- exempt from our primary commitment to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Insanity is often the logic of an accurate mind overtaxed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/338]]></link><description><![CDATA[Insanity is often the logic of an accurate mind overtaxed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When your child is missing, you're so aware that every minute counts.
