The more knowledge, the more obligation. The maintaining of revealed doctrine becomes blasphemy if it is not borne out by the corresponding testimony of the life. He who is always appealing to the Word of God without his life and conduct corresponding to this knowledge of God, dishonours God's name, making Him an object of mockery and hatred. It is just those who know so well how to talk about God who make His name hateful among men, because their lives darken the picture of God and turn it into a caricature. The Lord is judged by the life of His servants; this is the truer, the more zealously they appeal to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is one thing to believe in justification by faith, it is another thing to be justified by faith. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7083]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is one thing to believe in justification by faith, it is another thing to be justified by faith.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alone!--That worn-out word, So idly spoken, and so coldly heard;  Yet all that poets sing, and grief hath known, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57162]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alone!--That worn-out word, So idly spoken, and so coldly heard;  Yet all that poets sing, and grief hath known,   Of hope laid waste, knells in that word--Alone!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Juliana of Norwich, Mystic, Teacher, c.1417  I saw full surely in this and in all, that ere ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Juliana of Norwich, Mystic, Teacher, c.1417  I saw full surely in this and in all, that ere God made us he loved us; which love never slackened, nor ever shall be.
