Perfect love, we know, casteth out fear. But so do several other things--ignorance, alcohol, passion presumption, and stupidity. It is very desirable that we should all advance to that perfection of love in which we shall fear no longer; but it is very undesirable, until we have reached that stage, that we should allow any inferior agent to cast out our fear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Honesty is as much saying everything as it is saying what is true. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22391]]></link><description><![CDATA[Honesty is as much saying everything as it is saying what is true.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A human being is not attaining his full heights until he is educated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63044]]></link><description><![CDATA[A human being is not attaining his full heights until he is educated.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Language exerts hidden power, like the moon on the tides. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24072]]></link><description><![CDATA[Language exerts hidden power, like the moon on the tides.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24072</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My parents put skates on me at age 2, the way it should be if you're serious, and I've always ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47992]]></link><description><![CDATA[My parents put skates on me at age 2, the way it should be if you're serious, and I've always liked it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47992</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sure I'm for helping the elderly.

We are speaking of the proper relationship to the living God who exists. In order to understand the problems of our generation, we should be very alive to this distinction. Semantics (linguistic analysis) makes up the heart of modern philosophical study in the Anglo-Saxon world. Though the Christian cannot accept this study as a total philosophy, there is no reason why he should not be glad for the concept that words need to be defined before they can be used in communication. As Christians, we must understand that there is no word so meaningless as the word "god" until it is defined. No word has been used to reach absolutely opposite concepts as much as the word "god". Consequently, let us not be confused. There is much "spirituality" about us today that would relate itself to the word god or to the idea god; but this is not what we are talking about. Biblical truth and spirituality is not a relationship to the word god, or to the idea god. It is a relationship to the one who is there, which is an entirely different concept.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragement, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragement, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46198</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't know a woman until you have a letter from her ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27056]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't know a woman until you have a letter from her]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is always a chance that he who sets himself up as his brother's keeper will end up by being ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27230]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is always a chance that he who sets himself up as his brother's keeper will end up by being his jail-keeper.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people who have really made history are the martyrs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53690]]></link><description><![CDATA[The people who have really made history are the martyrs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57777]]></link><description><![CDATA[For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;  The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape, give a good smell.
