By their emphasis upon the primacy of individual justification, they deny the immediate social character and impact of the justification of the Jews and Gentiles, and they obstruct or delay the changes in common life which belong to the "new creation".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is only one way, really, to get into a state of living, and that's live!

Living does not consist of sitting in a temple in the shadows and getting rheumatism from the cold stones. Living is hot, it's fast, it's often brutal! It has a terrific gamut of emotional reactions. If you are really willing to live, you first have to be willing to do anything that consists of living. Weird. But it's one of those awfully true things that you wonder why one has to say it. And yet it has to be said.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57406</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Procastination is the thief of Time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59335]]></link><description><![CDATA[Procastination is the thief of Time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59335</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Baxter, Priest, Hymnographer, Teacher, 1691   He knoweth nothing as he ought to know it, who ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6396]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Baxter, Priest, Hymnographer, Teacher, 1691   He knoweth nothing as he ought to know it, who thinketh he knoweth anything without seeing its place and the manner how it relateth to God, angels, and men, and to all the creatures in earth, heaven and hell, time and eternity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6396</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18079]]></link><description><![CDATA[There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18079</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a cement trampoline. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24915]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a cement trampoline.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65277]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is little men know of women; their smiles and their tears alike are seldom what they seem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not surprised by the intensity, I didn't have to play it up to my girls at all.
