Every sin is a sin of the indivisible human being, and the divine reaction against it expresses itself to conscience through the indivisible frame of that world, at once natural and spiritual, in which man lives. We cannot distribute evils into the two classes of physical and moral, and subsequently investigate the relation between them: if we could, it would be of no service here. What we have to understand is that when a man sins he does something in which his whole being participates, and that the reaction of God against his sin is a reaction in which he is conscious (or might be conscious) that the whole system of things is in arms against him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I prefer credulity to skepticism and cynicism for there is more promise in almost anything than in nothing at all ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10614]]></link><description><![CDATA[I prefer credulity to skepticism and cynicism for there is more promise in almost anything than in nothing at all]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today the journey is ended, I have worked out the mandates of fate;  Naked, along, undefended,   I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57264]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today the journey is ended, I have worked out the mandates of fate;  Naked, along, undefended,   I knock at the Uttermost Gate.    Behind is life and its longing,     Its trial, its trouble, its sorrow,      Beyond is the Infinite Morning       Of a day without a tomorrow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's going to be a massive clash in all senses of the word. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32589]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's going to be a massive clash in all senses of the word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32589</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[. . . for righteous monarchs, Justly to judge, with their own eyes should see;  To rule o'er freemen, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16664]]></link><description><![CDATA[. . . for righteous monarchs, Justly to judge, with their own eyes should see;  To rule o'er freemen, should themselves be free.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16664</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was the one responsible for throwing away two points.

For instance, although there are some 200,000 "errors" among the New Testament manuscripts, these appear in only about 10,000 places, and only about one-sixtieth rise above the level of trivialities. Westcott and Hort, Ezra Abbot, Philip Schaff, and A. T. Robertson have carefully evaluated the evidence and have concluded that the New Testament text is over 99 percent pure. In the light of the fact that there are over 5,000 Greek manuscripts, some 9,000 versions and translations, the evidence for the integrity of the New Testament is beyond question.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pray, and let God worry ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pray, and let God worry]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why, he that cuts off twenty years of life Cuts off so many years of fearing death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58249]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why, he that cuts off twenty years of life Cuts off so many years of fearing death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money is the seed of money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21694]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money is the seed of money.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21694</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His heroism, patriotism and service to the country are something we all need to see as a role model. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29145]]></link><description><![CDATA[His heroism, patriotism and service to the country are something we all need to see as a role model.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unity to be real must stand the severest strain without breaking ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60122]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unity to be real must stand the severest strain without breaking]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world men inhabit is rather bleak.
