But it was different with those who could claim no such prerogative, and with those Jews who had become uneasy as to the grounds of such a relation and their validity -- in a word, with any who had been led by conscience to take a deeper view of the consequences of sin. So long as these were found mainly in punishment, suffering, judgment, so long 'remission of sins' -- letting off the consequences -- might suffice. But when it was recognized that sin had a far more serious consequence in alienation from God, the severing of the fellowship between God and His children, then Justification... ceased to be sufficient. 'Forgiveness' took on a deeper meaning; it connoted restoration of the fellowship, the establishment or reestablishment of a relation which could be described on the one side as fatherly, on the other as filial.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In my mind's eye, Horatio. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20531]]></link><description><![CDATA[In my mind's eye, Horatio.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have to laugh.
