The knowledge of God that men have by virtue of Jesus' revelation is quite enough for men to live by in this life, and to live gloriously and thankfully by, Christians maintain -- the knowledge that God the Creator, the Almighty and Eternal, the Lord of history, is man's Heavenly Father, and that love might well be, and indeed is, the ultimate meaning of human existence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6423</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's wrong with being a boring kind of guy?. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4736]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's wrong with being a boring kind of guy?.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here with my beer I sit, while golden moments flit: alas!

Nothing else will meet my case. There is something genuinely at stake in every man's life, the climax whereof is death. Dying is inevitable, but arriving at the destination God offers to me is not inevitable. It is not impossible to go out of the way and fail to arrive. Christian doctrine has always urged that life eternal is something which may conceivably be missed. It is possible to neglect this great salvation and to lose it eternally, even though no man may say that anything is impossible with God or that his grace may ultimately be defeated. I know it is no longer fashionable to talk about Hell, one good reason for this being that to make religion into a prudential insurance policy is to degrade it. The Faith is not a fire-escape.

He was not indifferent to observances, but the practices of the people bulked in His thoughts before the practices of the Church. It has been pointed out as a blemish on the immortal allegory of Bunyan that the Pilgrim never did anything -- anything but save his soul. The remark is scarcely fair, for the allegory is designedly the story of a soul in a single relation; and, besides, he did do a little. But the warning may well be weighed. The Pilgrim's one thought, his work by day, his dream by night, was escape. He took little part in the world through which he passed. He was a Pilgrim travelling through it; his business was to get through safe. Whatever this is, it is not Christianity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of their saddles into the dirt--and thereby hangs a tale. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57926]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of their saddles into the dirt--and thereby hangs a tale.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57926</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like the dew on the mountain, Like the foam on the river,  Like the bubble on the fountain,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25581]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like the dew on the mountain, Like the foam on the river,  Like the bubble on the fountain,   Thou are gone, and for ever!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25581</guid></item></channel></rss>
