But we do not ordinarily apply it to the best purposes. It is not so ordinary for men to resolve to be good as to resolve to be rich and great, not so common for men to resolve against sin as to resolve against poverty and suffering. It is not so usual for men to resolve to keep a good conscience as to keep a good place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here I stand the perpetrator of the crime--turn then your sword on me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51804]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here I stand the perpetrator of the crime--turn then your sword on me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To live with them is far less sweet, Than to remember thee! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50687]]></link><description><![CDATA[To live with them is far less sweet, Than to remember thee!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the ink of our sweat we will find it yet, The song that is fit for men! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57218]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the ink of our sweat we will find it yet, The song that is fit for men!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If they want to have their wall, fine.

When there is a want of brotherly love and Christian confidence among professors of religion, then a revival is needed. Then there is a loud call for God to revive his work. When Christians have sunk down into a low and backslidden state, they neither have, nor ought to have, nor is there reason to have, the same love and confidence toward each other, as when they are all alive, and active, and living holy lives...  2. When there are dissensions, and jealousies, and evil speakings among professors of religion, then there is great need of a revival. These things show that Christians have got far from God, and it is time to think earnestly of a revival. Religion cannot prosper with such things in the church, and nothing can put an end to them like a revival.  3. When there is a worldly spirit in the church: it is manifest that the church is sunk down into a low and backslidden state, when you see Christians conform to the world in dress, equipage, parties, seeking worldly amusements, reading novels and other books such as the world reads. It shows that they are far from God, and that there is a great need of a Revival of Religion.
