What does that mean? If the law were physical, then it could be satisfied by works, but since it is spiritual, no one can satisfy it unless everything he does springs from the depths of the heart. But no one can give such a heart except the Spirit of God, who makes the person be like the law, so that he actually conceives a heartfelt longing for the law and henceforward does everything, not through fear or coercion, but from a free heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should keep so close to facts that we never have to remember the second time what we said the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14885]]></link><description><![CDATA[We should keep so close to facts that we never have to remember the second time what we said the first time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14885</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has lived obscurely and quietly has lived well. [Lat., Bene qui latuit, bene vixit.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44766]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has lived obscurely and quietly has lived well. [Lat., Bene qui latuit, bene vixit.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915   When law and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6862]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915   When law and sin ceased to be distinguished in Israel, compassion induced Him to appoint judges again. If these are gifted with heroic qualities, to vanquish the oppressors of Israel, it is nevertheless not this heroism that forms their principal characteristic. That consists in judging. They restore... the authority of the law. For this reason, God raises up judges, not princes. The title sets forth both their work and the occasion of their appointment.
