This is a mercy for the Christian; for when does sin ever occur in the community that he must not examine and blame himself for his own unfaithfulness in prayer and intercession, his lack of brotherly service, of fraternal reproof and encouragement -- indeed, for his own personal sin and spiritual laxity, by which he has done injury to himself, the fellowship, and the brethren? Since every sin of a member burdens and indicts the whole community, the congregation rejoices, in the midst of all the pain and the burden that the brother's sin inflicts, that it has the privilege of bearing and forgiving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Bear and the FoxA bear boasted very much of his philanthropy, saying that of all animals he was the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1528]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Bear and the FoxA bear boasted very much of his philanthropy, saying that of all animals he was the most tender in his regard for man, for he had such respect for him that he would not even touch his dead body.

He mercifully unties the bundle, and gives us first one stick, which we are to carry today, and then another, which we are to carry tomorrow, and so on. This we might easily manage, if we would only take the burden appointed for each day; but we choose to increase our troubles by carrying yesterday's stick over again today, and adding tomorrow's burden to the load, before we are required to bear it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life isn't all haha hehe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60094]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life isn't all haha hehe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bart is a tremendously talented individual with an exceptional intellect, coupled with a strong work ethic and a healthy dollop ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31915]]></link><description><![CDATA[Bart is a tremendously talented individual with an exceptional intellect, coupled with a strong work ethic and a healthy dollop of grounded common sense.
