But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O God, thy sea is so great, and my boat is so small. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53607]]></link><description><![CDATA[O God, thy sea is so great, and my boat is so small.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Such words fall to often on our cold and careless ears with the triteness of long familiarity; but to Octavia ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58288]]></link><description><![CDATA[Such words fall to often on our cold and careless ears with the triteness of long familiarity; but to Octavia . . . they seemed to be written in sunbeams.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hide not your talents, they for use were made.

For where unification has been able to establish unity of ideas it has usually ended in uniformity, paralysing the growth of new ideas. And where the unification has merely brought about an artificial or imposed unity, its irksomeness has led through discord to disruption.Vitality springs from diversity- which makes for real progress so long as there is mutual toleration, based on the recognition that worse may come from an attempt to suppress differences than from acceptance of them. For this reason, the kind of peace that makes progress possible is best assured by the mutual checks created by a balance of forces- alike in the sphere of internal politics and of international relations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Peter & Paul, Apostles  You cannot escape Christ, do what You will.
