The Bible is the expression of the life and work of God, and since life is greater than its expression, it cannot be expressed completely in any logical or theological form. Therefore, the Bible itself cannot escape being understood in many different ways. Thus we see how in the wisdom of God it is impossible in practice to make the Scriptures the end or final authority to those who live in fellowship with the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Turn over a new leaf. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48522]]></link><description><![CDATA[Turn over a new leaf.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And pulpit, drum ecclesiastic, Was beat with fist instead of a stick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48071]]></link><description><![CDATA[And pulpit, drum ecclesiastic, Was beat with fist instead of a stick.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[(Blue Valley) has a vision for being the best school district in the nation, ...
