Righteousness comes back when man by faith is brought to walk with God again, and to give Him His true place by acting or being acted upon in all things according to His will. Anything, therefore, not of faith is sin. And all such sin is bondage. Self-will is bondage, for self-will or independence of God means dependence on a creature; and we cannot be dependent on a creature, be it what it may, without (more or less) becoming subject to it. What has not been given up for money, or for some creature's love? But who has ever thus served the creature more than the Creator without waking at last to feel he is a bondman? I say nothing of the worse bondage which comes from our self-will, in the indulgence of our own thoughts, or passions, or affections. Even the very energies of faith, while, as yet unchastened, it acts from self, ... may only bring forth more bondage... Who but God can set men free? And He sets them free as they walk with Him. All independence of Him is darkness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more facts you tell, the more you sell.

In forgetfulness, not indulgence, of the self. In escape from sensual appetites, not in their satisfaction We live in a dark, self-enclosed prison, which is all we see or know if our glance is fixed ever downward. To lift it upward, becoming aware of the wide, luminous universe outside -- this alone is happiness. At its highest level, such happiness is the ecstasy that mystics have inadequately described At more humdrum levels, it is human love; the delights and beauties of our dear earth, its colors and shapes and sounds; the enchantment of understanding and laughing, and all other exercise of such faculties as we possess; the marvel of the meaning of everything, fitfully glimpsed, inadequately expounded, but ever present.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If your great umbrage would care to meet my high dudgeon at 12 paces, I would be happy to entertain ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30043]]></link><description><![CDATA[If your great umbrage would care to meet my high dudgeon at 12 paces, I would be happy to entertain you at dawn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May I govern my passions with absolute sway, And grow wiser and better as my strength wears away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45612]]></link><description><![CDATA[May I govern my passions with absolute sway, And grow wiser and better as my strength wears away.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45612</guid></item></channel></rss>
