How we shall experience it depends upon the way we shall come up against it: God does not change; it is man's moral state that changes. The wrath of God is a figure of speech to denote God's unchanging opposition to sin; it is His righteous love operating to destroy evil. It is not evil that will have the last word, but good; not sorrow, but joy; not hate, but love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6888</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Despair is like forward children, who, when you take away one of their playthings, throw the rest into the fire ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12039]]></link><description><![CDATA[Despair is like forward children, who, when you take away one of their playthings, throw the rest into the fire for madness.

This sets a fashion which others imitate. Once the richer classes have adopted a certain way of living, producers have an incentive to improve the methods of manufacture so that soon it is possible for the poorer classes to follow suit. Thus luxury furthers progress. Innovation "is the whim of an elite before it becomes a need of the public. The luxury today is the necessity of tomorrow." Luxury is the roadmaker of progress: it develops latent needs and makes people discontented. In so far as they think consistently, moralists who condemn luxury must recommend the comparatively desireless existence of the wild life roaming in the woods as the ultimate ideal of civilized life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Investors may want a premium on bonds, which may push the cost of borrowing up.

In the end, the first step of obedience proves to be an act of faith in the word of Christ. But we should completely misunderstand the nature of grace if we were to suppose that there was no need to take the first-step, because faith was already there. Against that, we must boldly assert that the step of obedience must be taken before faith can be possible. Unless he obeys, a man cannot believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inexperience can be used as an excuse or an opportunity.
