Irving teaches me the lesson of cheerfulness, Hawthorne shows me the hatefulness of sin, Longfellow gives me the soft, tranquil music of hope. Lowell makes us feel that we must give ourselves to our fellow men. Whittier sings to me of divine Fatherhood and human brotherhood. These are Christian lessons: who inspired them? Who put it into the heart of Martin Luther to nail those theses on the church door of Wittenberg? Who stirred and fired the soul of Savonarola? Who thrilled and electrified the soul of John Wesley? Jesus Christ is back of these all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of John Coleridge Patteson, First Bishop of Melanesia, & his Companions, Martyrs, 1871  First in a series on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6652]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of John Coleridge Patteson, First Bishop of Melanesia, & his Companions, Martyrs, 1871  First in a series on God and the human condition:  Suffering is sometimes a mystery. We must affirm both the mystery and God. The paradox remained, but now, at least, Job knew that it belonged there -- that it is built into the moral and physical orders, and into the very nature of God as He has permitted us humans to perceive Him. In a world where the universal principle is cause/effect, the book of Job reminds us that the principle is a reflection of the mysterious, self-revealing God. It is subsumed under Him, however, and He cannot be subsumed under it. The God-speeches remind us that a Person, not a principle, is Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's more, much more, to Christmas Than candlelight and cheer; It's the spirit of sweet friendship That brightens all year. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8622]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's more, much more, to Christmas Than candlelight and cheer; It's the spirit of sweet friendship That brightens all year.
