Only he who lives by the forgiveness of his sin in Jesus Christ will rightly think little of himself. He will know that his own wisdom reached the end of its tether when Jesus forgave him. He will know that it is good for his own will to be broken in the encounter with his neighbor...   But not only my neighbor's will, but also his honor is more important than mine. The desire for one's own honor hinders faith. One who seeks his own honor is no longer seeking God and his neighbor. What does it matter if I suffer injustice? Would I not have deserved even worse punishment from God, if He had not dealt with me according to His mercy?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To desire the attainment of this equality or superiority by the particular means of others being brought down to our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47445]]></link><description><![CDATA[To desire the attainment of this equality or superiority by the particular means of others being brought down to our own level, or below it, is, I think, the distinct notion of envy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47445</guid></item></channel></rss>
