This is a mercy for the Christian; for when does sin ever occur in the community that he must not examine and blame himself for his own unfaithfulness in prayer and intercession, his lack of brotherly service, of fraternal reproof and encouragement -- indeed, for his own personal sin and spiritual laxity, by which he has done injury to himself, the fellowship, and the brethren? Since every sin of a member burdens and indicts the whole community, the congregation rejoices, in the midst of all the pain and the burden that the brother's sin inflicts, that it has the privilege of bearing and forgiving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In tears I tossed my coin from Trevi's edge. A coin unsordid as a bond of love--  And, with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54408]]></link><description><![CDATA[In tears I tossed my coin from Trevi's edge. A coin unsordid as a bond of love--  And, with the instinct of the homing dove,   I gave to Rome my rendezvous and pledge.    And when imperious Death     Has quenched my flame of breath,      Oh, let me join the faithful shades that throng that fount above.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say.

We modern pagans have to choose between that divine order, and the grey, dead, irresponsible, chaotic universe of atheism. And the tragedy is that we may make that choice without knowing it -- not by clear conviction but by vague drifting, by losing interest in Him. A nominal deist will say: "Yes, of course there must be some sort of Force that created the galaxy. But it's childish to imagine that It has any personal relation to me!" In that belief atheism exists as an undiagnosed disease. The man who says, "One God," and does not care, is an atheist in his heart. The man who speaks of God and will not recognize him in the burning bush -- that man is an atheist, though he speak with the tongues of men or angels, and appear in his pew every Sunday, and make large contributions to the church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To pull out of Gaza is not a policy, it is a step.

In these days when power and size and speed are almost universally admired, it seems to me particularly important to study afresh the "weakness", the "smallness of entry", and the "slowness" of God as He begins His vast work of reconstructing His disordered world. We are all tempted to take short cuts, to work for quick results, and to evade painful sacrifice. It is therefore essential that we should look again at love incarnate in a human being, to see God Himself at work within the limitations of human personality, and to base our methods on what we see Him do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Long jesting was never good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49607]]></link><description><![CDATA[Long jesting was never good.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63269]]></link><description><![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Character is a victory, not a gift. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5662]]></link><description><![CDATA[Character is a victory, not a gift.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Howe'er it be, it seems to me, 'Tis only noble to be good;  Kind hearts are more than coronets, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51699]]></link><description><![CDATA[Howe'er it be, it seems to me, 'Tis only noble to be good;  Kind hearts are more than coronets,   And simple faith than Norman blood.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51699</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Students now arrive at the university ignorant and cynical about our political heritage, lacking the wherewithal to be either inspired ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58012]]></link><description><![CDATA[Students now arrive at the university ignorant and cynical about our political heritage, lacking the wherewithal to be either inspired by it or seriously critical of it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give no bounties:  make equal laws: secure life and prosperity and you need not give alms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61384]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give no bounties:  make equal laws: secure life and prosperity and you need not give alms.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success is counted sweetest By those who ne'er succeed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58138]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success is counted sweetest By those who ne'er succeed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we had no reason to go up there to start with there was no weapons of mass destruction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39156]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think we had no reason to go up there to start with there was no weapons of mass destruction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Eloquence is the poetry of prose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13707]]></link><description><![CDATA[Eloquence is the poetry of prose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13707</guid></item></channel></rss>
