But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, who can hold a fire in his hand By thinking on the frosty Caucasus?

In them the Ancients personified living realities -- intelligence, beauty, love, or lust, which are still at work in our hearts, and which fashion our persons. The language they speak is that of image and myth, which touches the person much more directly than the explicit language of science and the intellectual dialectic of the modern world. It is also the language of the Bible, of the parables of Christ, which the rationalist of today finds it so difficult to understand, of the Word of God which demands of us not a discussion but a personal decision.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you cannot make up your mind which of two evenly balanced courses of action you should take -- choose ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4476]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you cannot make up your mind which of two evenly balanced courses of action you should take -- choose the bolder.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['I wish life was not so short,' he thought.
