The common basis of their life was the conviction that they enjoyed a new relationship with God, for which they were indebted to Jesus. The technical term for this relationship was "covenant", and "covenant" became eventually in their vocabulary "testament". Hence the later name for these writings of the church, when gathered into a sacred collection, was "The New Testament" -- New because the older relationship of God to his people, which had obtained under Judaism, with its Old Testament was superseded by the faith and fellowship which Jesus Christ his Son had inaugurated. It was the consciousness of this that inspired the early Christians to live, and to write about the origin and applications of this new life. They wrote for their own age, without a thought of posterity, and they did not write in unison but in harmony.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65435]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.rn]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65435</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world is like a board with holes in it, and the square men have got into the round holes, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world is like a board with holes in it, and the square men have got into the round holes, and the round into the square.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Failures to heroic minds are the stepping stones to success. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Failures to heroic minds are the stepping stones to success.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65039]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65039</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I give them each a different quote about about winning, confidence, motivation, stuff like that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39443]]></link><description><![CDATA[I give them each a different quote about about winning, confidence, motivation, stuff like that.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believing nothing does whilst there remained anything else to be done. [Lat., Nil actum credens, dum quid superesset agendum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44670]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believing nothing does whilst there remained anything else to be done. [Lat., Nil actum credens, dum quid superesset agendum.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At the camelauction slaughterhousethe camel lotthe rejected creaturessee no Camelot. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24995]]></link><description><![CDATA[At the camelauction slaughterhousethe camel lotthe rejected creaturessee no Camelot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect.
