It remains the great problem of interpretation, hitherto never entirely solved, how to unite these two things: the keen attention to what Paul wanted to say to that community then, and the search for what God wants to say to us through Paul today. In the end, the question is whether the reader will really allow God to speak to him, or whether he evades God by hiding behind "Paul", behind "the past".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hope to leave my children a sense of empathy and pity and a will to right social wrongs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13750]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hope to leave my children a sense of empathy and pity and a will to right social wrongs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We can evade reality, but we cannot evade the consequences of evading reality ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53022]]></link><description><![CDATA[We can evade reality, but we cannot evade the consequences of evading reality]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We look for in-line fourth-quarter financial results and more upbeat guidance for 2006 than Amgen provided at this time last ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41858]]></link><description><![CDATA[We look for in-line fourth-quarter financial results and more upbeat guidance for 2006 than Amgen provided at this time last year for 2005.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's very important that they keep us thinking and keep us learning.

How would the man interpret it? Would it not mean to him, "You may go on hating. I do not mind it. You have had great provocation, and are justified in your hate?" No doubt God takes what wrong there is, and what provocation there is, into the account; but the more provocation, the more excuse that can be urged for the hate, the more reason, if possible, that the hater should be delivered from the hell of his hate, that God's child should be made the loving child that He meant him to be. The man would think, not that God loved the sinner, but that He forgave the sin, which God never does. Every sin meets its due fate -- inexorable expulsion from the paradise of God's Humanity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As iron is eaten by rust, so are the envious consumed by envy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23188]]></link><description><![CDATA[As iron is eaten by rust, so are the envious consumed by envy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23188</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Though pride is not a virtue, it is the parent of many virtues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48192]]></link><description><![CDATA[Though pride is not a virtue, it is the parent of many virtues.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The past cannot be changed.
