Now, I do not want here to discuss whether the miraculous is possible: I only want to point out that this is a purely philosophical question. Scholars, as scholars, speak on it with no more authority than anyone else. The canon, "If miraculous, unhistorical", is one they bring to their study of the texts, not one they have learned from it. If one is speaking of authority, the united authority of all the Biblical critics in the world counts for nothing. On this they speak simply as men -- men obviously influenced by, and perhaps insufficiently critical of, the spirit of the age they grew up in.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8532</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But when I start to kiss someone - lust is the easiest emotion to generate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31158]]></link><description><![CDATA[But when I start to kiss someone - lust is the easiest emotion to generate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31158</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18901]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each handicap is like a hurdle in a steeplechase, and when you ride up to it, if you throw your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each handicap is like a hurdle in a steeplechase, and when you ride up to it, if you throw your heart over, the horse will go along, too.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every St. Patrick's Day every Irishman goes out to find another Irishman to make a speech to. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47527]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every St. Patrick's Day every Irishman goes out to find another Irishman to make a speech to.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51955]]></link><description><![CDATA[And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heresy is another word for freedom of thought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19205]]></link><description><![CDATA[Heresy is another word for freedom of thought.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each epoch has found in the Gospels what it sought to find there, and has overlooked what it wished to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each epoch has found in the Gospels what it sought to find there, and has overlooked what it wished to overlook.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I'm not living. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66065]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I'm not living.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If your desires be endless, your cares and fears will be so too. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15846]]></link><description><![CDATA[If your desires be endless, your cares and fears will be so too.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The peace makers shall be called the children of God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26879]]></link><description><![CDATA[The peace makers shall be called the children of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26879</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To some it may be a thrill to be known, to me it's a thrill to start a friendship even ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65782]]></link><description><![CDATA[To some it may be a thrill to be known, to me it's a thrill to start a friendship even up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That might have to be extended again. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29435]]></link><description><![CDATA[That might have to be extended again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody can be great.Because anybody can serve..You only need a heart full of grace.A soul generated by love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21239]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody can be great.Because anybody can serve..You only need a heart full of grace.A soul generated by love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What does drunkenness accomplish?

And truly there is no one to blame for this but themselves. For if a man were looking and striving after nothing but to find a preparation in all things, and diligently gave his whole mind to see how he might become prepared; verily God would well prepare him, for God giveth as much care and earnestness and love to the preparing of a man, as to the pouring in of His Spirit when the man is prepared.  ... Theologia Germanica  December 16, 2002   Repentance is but a kind of table-talk, till we see so much of the deformity of our inward nature as to be in some degree frightened and terrified at the sight of it... A plausible form of an outward life, that has only learned rules and modes of religion by use and custom, often keeps the soul for some time at ease, though all its inward root and ground of sin has never been shaken or molested, though it has never tasted of the bitter waters of repentance and has only known the want of a Saviour by hearsay. But things cannot pass thus: sooner or later repentance must have a broken and a contrite heart; we must with our blessed Lord go over the brook Cedron, and with Him sweat great drops of sorrow before He can say for us, as He said for Himself: "It is finished.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things of today? Deeds which are harvest for Eternity! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things of today? Deeds which are harvest for Eternity!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We secure to two trees in case one of them breaks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34481]]></link><description><![CDATA[We secure to two trees in case one of them breaks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34481</guid></item></channel></rss>
