That is what you are asked as Christians to believe. And it is the sword, glittering but fearful. It must cut your life away from the standards of this world, away from its thought and its measures, no less than its aims and hopes. Hard and bitter is the separation, and you will be parted from many great and noble men, some perhaps your own teachers, who can accept about Jesus everything but the one thing needful. The Christian faith, if accepted, drives a wedge between its own adherents and the disciples of every other philosophy or religion, however lofty or soaring. And they will not see this; they will tell you that really your views and theirs are the same thing, and only differ in words, which, if only you were a little more highly trained, you would understand. Even among Christ's nominal servants there are many who think a little good-will is all that is needed to bridge the gulf -- a little amiability and mutual explanation, a more careful use of phrases, would soon accommodate Christianity to fashionable modes of speaking and thinking, and destroy all causes of provocation. So they would. But they would destroy also its one inalienable attraction: that of being... a wonder, and a beauty, and a terror -- no dull and drab system of thought, no mere symbolic idealism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes even to live is an act of courage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10346]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I 'll not budge an inch. -The Taming of the Shrew.

In these days when power and size and speed are almost universally admired, it seems to me particularly important to study afresh the "weakness", the "smallness of entry", and the "slowness" of God as He begins His vast work of reconstructing His disordered world. We are all tempted to take short cuts, to work for quick results, and to evade painful sacrifice. It is therefore essential that we should look again at love incarnate in a human being, to see God Himself at work within the limitations of human personality, and to base our methods on what we see Him do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lonely is the person who is no ones number 1 ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25514]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lonely is the person who is no ones number 1]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Atheist's laugh's a poor exchange For Deity offended! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53468]]></link><description><![CDATA[An Atheist's laugh's a poor exchange For Deity offended!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23149]]></link><description><![CDATA[Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His creativity is incredible.

My gracious Master and my God,   Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad   The honours of thy name. Jesus! the name that charms our fears,   That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears,   'Tis life, and health, and peace. He breaks the power of cancelled sin,   He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean,   His blood availed for me. He speaks, and, listening to his voice,   New life the dead receive, The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,   The humble poor believe. Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,   Your loosened tongues employ; Ye blind, behold your Saviour come,   And leap, ye lame, for joy. Look unto him, ye nations, own   Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone,   Be justified by grace. See all your sins on Jesus laid:   The Lamb of God was slain, His soul was once an offering made   For every soul of man. Awake from guilty nature's sleep,   And Christ shall give you light, Cast all your sins into the deep,   And wash you purest white. With me, your chief, ye then shall know,   Shall feel your sins forgiven; Anticipate your heaven below,   And own that love is heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18742]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's a special guy.
