We should therefore take care not to derive the least portion of it from anywhere else. If we seek salvation, we are taught by the very name of Jesus that it is "of him". If we seek any other gifts of the Spirit, they will be found in his anointing. If we seek strength, it lies in his dominion; if purity, in his conception; if gentleness, it appears in his birth. For by his birth he was made like us in all respects that he might learn to feel our pain. If we seek redemption, it lies in his passion; if acquittal, in his condemnation; if remission of the curse, in his cross; if satisfaction, in his sacrifice; if purification, in his blood; if reconciliation, in his descent into hell; if mortification of the flesh, in his tomb; if newness of life, in his resurrection; if immortality, in the same; if inheritance of the Heavenly Kingdom, in his entrance into heaven; if protection, if security, if abundant supply of all blessings, in his Kingdom; if untroubled expectation of judgment, in the power given to him to judge. In short, since rich store of every kind of good abounds in him, let us drink our fill from this fountain, and from no other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25573]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you have left.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The importance of this big defeat, dramatic defeat is not only that they have lost areas, but they have lost ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28275]]></link><description><![CDATA[The importance of this big defeat, dramatic defeat is not only that they have lost areas, but they have lost their main fighting force,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the real secret of all that indignation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50369]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the real secret of all that indignation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History: An account, mostly false, of events unimportant, which are brought about by rulers mostly knaves, and soldiers mostly fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19369]]></link><description><![CDATA[History: An account, mostly false, of events unimportant, which are brought about by rulers mostly knaves, and soldiers mostly fools.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Churches must learn humility as well as teach it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53516]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Churches must learn humility as well as teach it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes even though you're having a good time, you can't help but to stop and think about how much you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63073]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes even though you're having a good time, you can't help but to stop and think about how much you miss the old times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63073</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He found a city of bricks, he left one of marble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51562]]></link><description><![CDATA[He found a city of bricks, he left one of marble.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the only tool you have is a hammer you tend to see every problemas a nail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21839]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the only tool you have is a hammer you tend to see every problemas a nail.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even if they say it's safe, I don't know if I want to stay here. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30506]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even if they say it's safe, I don't know if I want to stay here.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You have a young, mid-20s girl here who was the daughter of the owner, and another gentleman who just immigrated ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29716]]></link><description><![CDATA[You have a young, mid-20s girl here who was the daughter of the owner, and another gentleman who just immigrated here and was trying to work two jobs to save enough money to bring his family here.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29716</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah! the perfidious English! [Fr., Ah! la perfide Angleterre!] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13904]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah! the perfidious English! [Fr., Ah! la perfide Angleterre!]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success.

There are no other examples of this usage in contemporary Judaism, but Jesus always addressed God in this way. The others perhaps regarded it as child's talk, a form of expression too disrespectful to be so used. But for Jesus, abba expressed the filial intimacy he felt toward his Father. As the divine Son of the Father, Jesus enjoyed a unique relationship with him, and his mission in the world consisted in opening up the blessings of sonship to those who believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing more imprudent than excessive prudence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51983]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing more imprudent than excessive prudence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51983</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cooking is at once child's play and adult joy.
