What causes this odd state of affairs? The root cause is the same as in most cases of error in the Church--the intruding of rationalistic speculations, the passion for systematic consistency, a reluctance to recognize the existence of mystery and to let God be wiser than men, and a consequent subjecting of Scripture to the supposed demands of human logic. People see that the Bible teaches man's responsibility for his actions; they do not see how this is consistent with the sovereign Lordship of God over those actions. They are not content to let the two truths live side by side, as they do in the Scriptures, but jump to the conclusion that, in order to uphold the biblical truth of human responsibility, they are bound to reject the equally biblical and equally true doctrine of divine sovereignty, and to explain away the great number of texts that teach it. The desire to over-simplify the Bible by cutting out the mysteries is natural to our perverse minds, and it is not surprising, that even good men should fall victims to it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beyond terrorism, this was the one event I was most concerned with always. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38113]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beyond terrorism, this was the one event I was most concerned with always.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The golden age is before us, not behind us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64245]]></link><description><![CDATA[The golden age is before us, not behind us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger is never without a reason, but seldom with a good one ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2527]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger is never without a reason, but seldom with a good one]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The major components of inflation for us are energy costs and housing costs and medical costs, and I don't see ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34728]]></link><description><![CDATA[The major components of inflation for us are energy costs and housing costs and medical costs, and I don't see any major break in any of these.
