It's like riding a bicycle or swimming: You learn by doing.   .. Luis Palau  March 14, 2001   Most evangelicals believe that if a passage of the Bible seems unclear in its meaning, it should be interpreted in the light of Scripture "as a whole". But what does "Scripture as a whole" mean? In practice, if not theory, it means the working systematic theology of the interpreter, or of his own theological tradition. An evangelical... would not hold to that tradition unless he believed that it did represent the wholeness of the biblical witness. Nevertheless, if this state of affairs has been correctly described, he is now in a serious difficulty. For if the Bible must always accord with a theology that has already been accepted, how can the truth of a biblical passage ever confront him afresh with an unfavorable judgment?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfection. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46124]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfection.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Builders, raise the ceiling high, Raise the dome into the sky,  Hear the wedding song!   For the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57227]]></link><description><![CDATA[Builders, raise the ceiling high, Raise the dome into the sky,  Hear the wedding song!   For the happy groom is near,    Tall as Mars, and statelier,     Hear the wedding song!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chaos in the midst of chaos isn't funny, but chaos in the midst of order is. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5606]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chaos in the midst of chaos isn't funny, but chaos in the midst of order is.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The blaze razed four or five blocks that housed the male Indonesian inmates, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28261]]></link><description><![CDATA[The blaze razed four or five blocks that housed the male Indonesian inmates,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes you have to let go to see if there was anything worth holding on to. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46227]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes you have to let go to see if there was anything worth holding on to.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46227</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48031]]></link><description><![CDATA[In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63594]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fringed curtains of thine eye advance. -The Tempest.
