But they are not repentance at all... It is the simple truth that that sorrow of heart, that healing and sanctifying pain in which sin is really put away, is not ours in independence of God; it is a saving grace which is begotten in the soul under the impression of sin it owes to the revelation of God in Christ. A man can no more repent than he can do anything else without a motive; and the motive which makes evangelic repentance possible does not enter into his world till he sees God as God makes Himself known in the death of Christ. All true penitents are children of the Cross. Their penitence is not their own creation: it is the reaction towards God produced in their souls by this demonstration of what sin is to Him, and of what His love does to reach and win the sinful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reality is an illusion that occurs due to lack of alcohol ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reality is an illusion that occurs due to lack of alcohol]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Belief in immortality for us does not depend on a story, however well attested, in an ancient book...

No, here was a sequence of great character and emancipated spirit, all attached to and explained by such a personality as the world never saw; and the central doctrine of the risen Christ squared with the rationality and the goodness of God... The wise said that God and the godlike could have no contact with suffering, but Jesus was no phantom feigning to be crucified; he truly suffered on the cross, he truly rose. Suffering is a language all can understand, and none can quite exhaust; and the suffering Christ, victorious over pain and death, meant for all who grasped his significance a new faith in God, a new freedom of mind in God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64814]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poor deer, quoth he, thou makest a testament As worldlings do, giving thy sum of more To that which had ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55636]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poor deer, quoth he, thou makest a testament As worldlings do, giving thy sum of more To that which had too much. -As You Like It.
