When the church finds its members falling into gross and scandalous sins, then it is time for the church to awake and cry to God for a Revival of Religion. When such things are taking place as give enemies of religion an occasion for reproach, it is time for the church to ask God, "What will become of Thy great name?"  5. When there is a spirit of controversy in the church or in the land, a revival is needful. The spirit of religion is not the spirit of controversy. There can be no prosperity in religion, where the spirit of controversy prevails.  6. When the wicked triumph over the church, and revile them, it is time to seek for a Revival of Religion.  7. When sinners are careless and stupid, and sinking into hell unconcerned, it is time the church should bestir themselves. It is as much the duty of the church to awake, as it is for the firemen to awake when a fire breaks out in the night in a great city. The church ought to put out the fires of hell which are laying hold of the wicked. Sleep! Should the firemen sleep, and let the whole city burn down, what would be thought of such firemen? And yet their guilt would not compare with the guilt of Christians who sleep while sinners around them are sinking stupid into the fires of hell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now a' is done that men can do, And a' is done in vain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14915]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now a' is done that men can do, And a' is done in vain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14915</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His conversation does not show the minute hand; but he strikes the hour very correctly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10098]]></link><description><![CDATA[His conversation does not show the minute hand; but he strikes the hour very correctly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're in convoys, taking the same risks as the male solders and Marines, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37216]]></link><description><![CDATA[They're in convoys, taking the same risks as the male solders and Marines,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Judges and senates have been bought for gold; Esteem and love were never to be sold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4906]]></link><description><![CDATA[Judges and senates have been bought for gold; Esteem and love were never to be sold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The oyster is unseasonable and unwholesome in all months that have not the letter R in their name. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45351]]></link><description><![CDATA[The oyster is unseasonable and unwholesome in all months that have not the letter R in their name.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are many victories worse than a defeat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60598]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are many victories worse than a defeat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The justice doesn't have any comment about it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39610]]></link><description><![CDATA[The justice doesn't have any comment about it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The least foolish is wise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49884]]></link><description><![CDATA[The least foolish is wise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49884</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can't imagine what a pleasure this complete laziness is to me: not a thought in my brain- you might ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24381]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can't imagine what a pleasure this complete laziness is to me: not a thought in my brain- you might send a ball rolling through it!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Always reward your long hours of labor and toil in the very best way,surrounded by your family.

Tell Him your troubles, that He may comfort you; tell Him your joys, that He may sober them; tell Him your longings, that He may purify them; tell Him your dislikes, that He may help you conquer them; talk to Him of your temptations, that He may shield you from them: show Him the wounds of your heart, that He may heal them; lay bare your indifference to good, your depraved tastes for evil, your instability. Tell Him how self-love makes you unjust to others, how vanity tempts you to be insincere, how pride disguises you to yourself and others.  If you thus pour out all your weaknesses, needs, troubles, there will be no lack of what to say. You will never exhaust the subject. It is continually being renewed. People who have no secrets from each other never want for subjects of conversation. They do not weigh their words, for there is nothing to be held back; neither do they seek for something to say. They talk out of the abundance of the heart, without consideration they say just what they think. Blessed are they who attain to such familiar, unreserved intercourse with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6455</guid></item></channel></rss>
