The figure who emerged is quite unlike the Jesus of conventional piety, and even more unlike that imagined hero whom members of various causes claim as their champion. What we are so often confronted with today is a "processed" Jesus. Every element that we feel is not consonant with our "image" of him is removed, and the result is more insipid and unsatisfying than the worst of processed food.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He raised a mortal to the skies; She drew an angel down. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20856]]></link><description><![CDATA[He raised a mortal to the skies; She drew an angel down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No better than you should be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48514]]></link><description><![CDATA[No better than you should be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fair Venus shines Even in the eye of day; with sweetest beam  Propitious shines, and shakes a trembling flood ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59914]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fair Venus shines Even in the eye of day; with sweetest beam  Propitious shines, and shakes a trembling flood   Of softened radiance from her dewy locks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is no secret that organized crime in America takes in over forty billion dollars a year.

Our holiness is an effect, not a cause; so long as our eyes are on our own personal whiteness as an end in itself, the thing breaks down. God can do nothing while my interest is in my own personal character--He will take care of this if I obey His call. In learning to love God and people as He commanded us to do, obviously your sanctification cannot but come, but not as an end in itself.   ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  November 13, 2001 Feast of Charles Simeon, Pastor, Teacher, 1836   Repentance is in every view so desirable, so necessary, so suited to honor God, that I seek that above all. The tender heart, the broken and contrite spirit, are to me far above all the joys that I could ever hope for in this vale of tears. I long to be in my proper place, my hand on my mouth, and my mouth in the dust... I feel this to be safe ground. Here I cannot err... I am sure that whatever God may despise... He will not despise the broken and contrite heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[. . .

Therefore blessed be they, and most honoured be their name, that breake the yce and give the onset upon that which helpeth forward to the saving of soules. Now what can be more available thereto, than to deliver Gods booke unto the Gods people in a tongue which they understand? ... So if we, building upon their foundation that went before us, and being holpen by their labours, doe endeavor to make that better which they left so good; no man, we are sure, has cause to mislike us; they, we persuade ourselves, if they were alive, would thank us. For is the Kingdom of God become words or syllables? Why should we be in bondage to them if we may be free?
