Every pulse of love is a tendril that draws us in His direction. Every verification of truth links the finite mind up into a Foundational Mind that undergirds us. Every deed of good will points toward a consummate Goodness which fulfills all our tiny adventures in faith. We can find Him because in Him we live and move and have our being.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is unfair to believe everything we hear about lawyers.

The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers your scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace at home, peace in the world ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39793]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace at home, peace in the world]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without music, life is a journey through a desert. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43521]]></link><description><![CDATA[Without music, life is a journey through a desert.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only tyrant I accept in this world is the 'still small voice' within ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59950]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only tyrant I accept in this world is the 'still small voice' within]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are more men ennobled by study than by nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58051]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are more men ennobled by study than by nature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am America.

To the contrary, it is inherent in the Bible, for the Bible declares itself to be the Word of God. If it be the Word of God, its various teachings should all form a coherent unity. This presupposition of the Bible's unity provides a test for the validity of a system of interpretation: if the system is not able to demonstrate the Bible's unity, it must be an inadequate system.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6298</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Eglantine Jebb, Social Reformer, Founder of 'Save the Children', 1928   What makes some theological works like ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8502]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Eglantine Jebb, Social Reformer, Founder of 'Save the Children', 1928   What makes some theological works like sawdust to me is the way the authors can go on discussing how far certain positions are adjustable to contemporary thought, or beneficial in relation to social problems, or "have a future" before them, but never squarely ask what grounds we have for supposing them to be true accounts of any objective reality.
