It may be better laid at the door of the church [that] has failed to preach the God of the Bible, heaven and hell, repentance, faith, and eternal life. It can be argued that a society only gets the advertising it deserves. Yet the power to commend certain patterns of spending behaviour to millions with regularity is an open invitation to orchestrate the covetousness, envy, lust, and desire to dominate, which lie in the heart of sinful man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Hospital is no place to be sick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19877]]></link><description><![CDATA[A Hospital is no place to be sick.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are victories of the soul and spirit.

For one thing, it implies that we have no spiritual ambition, else we should not be satisfied with such poor lives; that we cannot have thought out the fact of Jesus Christ, and how immeasurably He has raised the standard. Will you hang your wretched daubs beside the works of Titian and Michelangelo and not be shamed by the enormous contrast -- stand back and say, with a satisfied smirk, "That is pretty good, you know!"? And can you live face to face with Jesus Christ, and be content with what you are?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7852</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I didn't become political, ...
