To our amazement, it works out. And then we settle down. We have had our own first-hand and irrefutable experience. But, instead of opening the windows to the glory of the sunshine so evidently there, instead of being incited to a hugeness of faith by what Christ has already done for us, we can't believe that there can be anything more, or that even He can work, for us, anything better. That first foretaste satisfies us. And so we camp for life out on the confines of the Kingdom, and never press on to inherit what is there and meant for us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7843</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important quality in a leader is that of being acknowledged as such.

The first three gifts of the Spirit which God had set in the Church were apostles, prophets, and teachers, in addition to which the whole Church had a gift of government (I Cor. 12:4, 28). The decisions of the first council of the Church were first of all decrees of the Spirit (Acts 15:28). Paul had preached and created churches by the power of the Spirit (I Cor. 2:4; 1 Thess. 1:5,6; Gal. 3:2). In one Spirit were all believers baptized into one body (I Cor. 12:13: cf. Phil. 1:27). The Spirit therefore dwells in the Church as the principle of its entire united and common life (Eph. 2:18, 22; cf. I Cor. 3:16).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6240</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You never realize how short a month is until you pay alimony. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66493]]></link><description><![CDATA[You never realize how short a month is until you pay alimony.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mountains interposed Make enemies of nations, who had else  Like kindred drops been mingled into one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43298]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mountains interposed Make enemies of nations, who had else  Like kindred drops been mingled into one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where Young must torture his invention To flatter knaves, or lose his pension. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16178]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where Young must torture his invention To flatter knaves, or lose his pension.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In short, all things that please the natural man in this world, are, to a true Christian, only so many ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38319]]></link><description><![CDATA[In short, all things that please the natural man in this world, are, to a true Christian, only so many crosses and temptations, allurements of sin and snares of death, that continually exercise his virtue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To manipulate an image is to control a people ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46555]]></link><description><![CDATA[To manipulate an image is to control a people]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48304]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48304</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, Conscience!

And when they are wicked, the Humanitarian theory of punishment will put in their hands a finer instrument of tyranny than wickedness ever had before. For if crime and disease are to be regarded as the same thing, it follows that any state of mind which our masters choose to call 'disease' can be treated as crime, and compulsorily cured. It will be vain to plead that states of mind which displease the government need not always involve moral turpitude and do not therefore always deserve forfeiture of liberty. For our masters will not be using the concepts of Desert and Punishment but those of disease and cure. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has been my experience that one cannot, in any shape or form, depend on human relations for lasting reward. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14698]]></link><description><![CDATA[It has been my experience that one cannot, in any shape or form, depend on human relations for lasting reward.
