It comes from him in his Sonship in a double way, as man living to God and as God living with men. Belief in him and loyalty to his cause involve men in the double movement, from world to God and from God to world. Even when theologies fail to do justice to this fact, Christians living with Christ in their cultures are aware of it. For they are forever being challenged to abandon all things for the sake of God; and forever being sent back into the world to teach and practice all the things that have been commanded them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In answer to the question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our Universe is simply one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60183]]></link><description><![CDATA[In answer to the question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66012]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Argue for your limitations, and sure enough they're yours. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65666]]></link><description><![CDATA[Argue for your limitations, and sure enough they're yours.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can't control my destiny, I trust my soul, my only goal is just to be.

For often what is one man's life may be another's death. Therefore you should observe yourself, whether your love for God is growing and your reverence is not destroyed.
