Jesus is more than a religious genius, such as George Fox, and more than a holy man, such as the lovable Lana in Kipling's Kim. He himself knows that he is more. The Gospel story is a tree rooted in the familiar soil of time and sense; but its roots go down into the Abyss and its branches fill the Heavens; given to us in terms of a country in the Eastern Mediterranean no bigger than Wales, during the Roman Principate of Tiberius Caesar in the first century of our era, its range is universal; it is on the scale of eternity. God's presence and his very Self were made manifest in the words and works of this Man. In short, the Man Christ Jesus has the decisive place in man's ageless relationship with God. He is what God means by 'Man'. He is what man means by 'God'.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6674</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is the author, men are only the players.

Not along this track lies the path of moral progress. Christianity says: face the evil once for all, and disown it. Then quiet the spirit in the presence of God. Let His perfections fill the field of vision. In particular, let the concrete embodiment of the goodness of God in Christ attract and absorb the gaze of the soul. Here is the righteousness, not as a fixed and abstract ideal, but in a living human person. The righteousness of Christ is a real achievement of God's own Spirit in man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was a wight of high renowne, And thosne but of a low degree;  Itt's pride that putts the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2754]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was a wight of high renowne, And thosne but of a low degree;  Itt's pride that putts the countrye downe,   Man, take thine old cloake about thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2754</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I want to go berry picking on the hogback, God.Keep me on a short leash. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17699]]></link><description><![CDATA[I want to go berry picking on the hogback, God.Keep me on a short leash.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even the Thickest pizza on earth will be delivered cold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39650]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even the Thickest pizza on earth will be delivered cold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Desiring things widely different for their various tastes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50206]]></link><description><![CDATA[Desiring things widely different for their various tastes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no greater sign of a general decay of virtue in a nation, than a want of zeal in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62617]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no greater sign of a general decay of virtue in a nation, than a want of zeal in its inhabitants for the good of their country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62617</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While the operating results are disappointing, we made significant progress toward executing our strategic plans during the quarter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35762]]></link><description><![CDATA[While the operating results are disappointing, we made significant progress toward executing our strategic plans during the quarter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most completely lost of all days is that on which one has not laughed. [Fr., La plus perdue de ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24167]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most completely lost of all days is that on which one has not laughed. [Fr., La plus perdue de toutes les journees est celle ou l'on n'a pas rit.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24167</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now, while the honour thou hast got Is spick and span new. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19713]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now, while the honour thou hast got Is spick and span new.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be curious always!
