This is, of course, why many otherwise honest intellectual people will construct a neat by-pass around the claim of Jesus to be God. Being people of insight and imagination, they know perfectly well that once to accept such a claim as fact would mean a readjustment of their own purposes and values and affections which they may have no wish to make. To call Jesus the greatest Figure in History or the finest Moral Teacher the world has ever seen commits no one to anything. But once to allow the startled mind to accept as fact that this man is really focused-God may commit anyone to anything! There is every excuse for blundering in the dark, but in the light there is no cover from reality. It is because we strongly sense this, and not merely because we feel that the evidence is ancient and scanty, that we shrink from committing ourselves to such a far-reaching belief as that Jesus Christ was really God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell.

But men make themselves so unworthy of it that it is only just that God should refuse to some because of the hardness of heart what He gives to others from a compassion that they do not deserve. If He had wanted to overcome the obstinacy of the most hardened, He could have done so by revealing Himself to them so obviously that they could not have doubted the truth of His Being -- just as He will appear at the last day with such a clap of thunder and such an upheaval of nature that the dead will revive and the blindest will see. It is not in this way, however, that He willed to appear at His gentle coming: because so many men had made themselves unworthy of His mercy, He willed to leave them deprived of the good which they did not desire. And so it would not have been fair for Him to have appeared in an obviously divine manner, absolutely capable of convincing all men. But also it would not have been fair for Him to appear in a manner so hidden that even those who were sincerely seeking Him should not be able to recognize Him... So He has tempered His knowledge, by giving marks of Himself which were visible to those who seek Him, and not to those who seek Him not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One should not stand at the foot of a sick person's bed, because that place is reserved for the guardian ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53520]]></link><description><![CDATA[One should not stand at the foot of a sick person's bed, because that place is reserved for the guardian angel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Truths would you teach, or save a sinking land? All fear, none aid you, and few understand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19168]]></link><description><![CDATA[Truths would you teach, or save a sinking land? All fear, none aid you, and few understand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wine in the bottell doth not quench thirst. [The wine in the bottle does not quench thirst.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49934]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wine in the bottell doth not quench thirst. [The wine in the bottle does not quench thirst.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Show me a great actor and I'll show you a lousy husband.
