Fully persuaded that the Bible was an imposture, they were determined to expose [it]. Mr. West chose the Resurrection of Christ, and Lord Lyttleton the conversion of St Paul, for the subject of hostile criticism. Both sat down to their respective tasks full of prejudice and a contempt for Christianity. The results of their separate endeavours was that they were both converted by their attempts to overthrow the truth of Christianity! They came together, not as they had expected, to exult over an imposture exposed to ridicule, but to lament their folly and congratulate each other on their joint conviction, that the Bible was the word of God. Their able enquiries have furnished two most valuable treatises in favour of revelation -- one, entitled "Observations on the Conversion of St Paul", and the other, "Observations on the Resurrection of Christ.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945  Not only the young Christian but also the adult Christian will complain ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8597]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945  Not only the young Christian but also the adult Christian will complain that the Scripture reading is often too long for him, and that much therein he does not understand. To this it must be said that, for the mature Christian, every Scripture reading will be "too long", even the shortest one, [for] the Scripture is a whole, and every word, every sentence, possesses such multiple relationships with the whole that it is impossible always to keep the whole in view when listening to details. It becomes apparent, therefore, that the whole of Scripture, and hence every passage in it as well, far surpasses our understanding. It is good for us to be daily reminded of this fact.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Celerity is never more admired Than by the negligent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18782]]></link><description><![CDATA[Celerity is never more admired Than by the negligent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis skill not strength that governs a ship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis skill not strength that governs a ship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with baseball is that it is not played the year round. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3741]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with baseball is that it is not played the year round.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're moving ahead.
