The term "Old Testament" leads people to fancy it is an antiquated book; whereas, in many respects, it is newer than the New Testament, referring more fully to the age of glory and blessedness on the earth which is still before us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are new words now that excuse everybody.
