That the Christian religion is only a declaration of God's goodwill to us, without any expectation of duty from us -- this is an error which one could hardly think could ever enter into any who have the liberty to read the Bible and attend to what they read and find there. The three great promises of the gospel are all very expressly contained in our Saviour's first sermon upon the mount. There we find the promise of blessedness often repeated but never absolutely made, but upon certain conditions, plainly required on our part, as repentance, righteousness, humility, mercy, peaceableness, meekness, patience. Forgiveness of sins is likewise promised, but only to those who make a penitent acknowledgement of them and ask forgiveness for them., and are ready to grant that forgiveness to others which they beg of God for themselves. The gift of God's Holy Spirit is likewise promised, but it is upon condition of our earnest and importunate prayer to God. The gospel is everywhere full of precepts enjoining duty and obedience upon our part, as well as of promises on God's part, assuring blessings to us -- nay, full of terrible threatenings also if we disobey the precepts of the gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He [Caesar Augustus] found a city built of brick; he left it built of marble. [Lat., Urbem lateritiam accepit, mamoream ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8783]]></link><description><![CDATA[He [Caesar Augustus] found a city built of brick; he left it built of marble. [Lat., Urbem lateritiam accepit, mamoream relinquit.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8783</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For his religion, it was fit To match his learning and his wit;  'Twas Presbyterian true blue;   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12627]]></link><description><![CDATA[For his religion, it was fit To match his learning and his wit;  'Twas Presbyterian true blue;   For he was of that stubborn crew    Of errant saints, whom all men grant     To be the true Church Militant;      Such as do build their faith upon       The holy text of pike and gun;        Decide all controversies by         Infallible artillery;          And prove their doctrine orthodox,           By Apostolic blows and knocks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The miserable have no other medicine, But only hope:  I have hope to live, and am prepared to die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51394]]></link><description><![CDATA[The miserable have no other medicine, But only hope:  I have hope to live, and am prepared to die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9686</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The air of England has long been too pure for a slave, and every man is free who breathes it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56597]]></link><description><![CDATA[The air of England has long been too pure for a slave, and every man is free who breathes it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16429]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After five up weeks, it's ok to have a week like this. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37124]]></link><description><![CDATA[After five up weeks, it's ok to have a week like this.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever you can hold a Class A team to just three field goals you are playing pretty solid defense. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36080]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever you can hold a Class A team to just three field goals you are playing pretty solid defense.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People are the only animals who eat themselves to death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/743]]></link><description><![CDATA[People are the only animals who eat themselves to death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/743</guid></item></channel></rss>
