Jesus said, What the masters in Israel teach, what the Pharisees and the Scribes teach, is perfectly correct. There was no dogma which was the cause of controversy between Jesus and the nation; there was no new custom that Jesus introduced: He went into the Temple every day, He observed the ordinances and festivals of Israel. What was the subject of dispute and controversy between Jesus and the Jews? It was no doctrine, it was no innovation, it was Jesus Himself whom they rejected. There was an antipathy in them to the person of Jesus: it was the Lord Himself whom they hated, because they hated the Father... But Jesus knew... that it was because He was one with the Father, because He was the express image of His being, because He was the perfect manifestation of the character of God, that they hated Him; and therefore Jesus was pained, not because they hated Him, but because they hated in Him the Father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether it's one dollar from a kid, or five, 10 or 20 dollars from an adult, it all adds up, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether it's one dollar from a kid, or five, 10 or 20 dollars from an adult, it all adds up,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every dictator uses religion as a prop to keep himself in power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47935]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every dictator uses religion as a prop to keep himself in power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who look down on other people don't end up being looked up to. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63887]]></link><description><![CDATA[People who look down on other people don't end up being looked up to.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're going to miss him a lot.
