"Only those who believe obey" is what we say to that part of a believer's soul which obeys, and "only those who obey believe" is what we say to that part of the soul of the obedient which believes. If the first half of the proposition stands alone, the believer is exposed to the danger of cheap grace, which is another word for damnation. If the second half stands alone, the believer is exposed to the danger of salvation through works, which is also another word for damnation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man can eat fifty eggs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18312]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man can eat fifty eggs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18312</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All mankind is divided into three classes: those that are immovable, those that are movable, and those that move. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8846]]></link><description><![CDATA[All mankind is divided into three classes: those that are immovable, those that are movable, and those that move.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I had obeyed God, as I have obeyed him, He would not have punished me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62636]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I had obeyed God, as I have obeyed him, He would not have punished me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in angels, so it's simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36768]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in angels, so it's simple.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36768</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not perfect, nay, but full of tender wants. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51707]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not perfect, nay, but full of tender wants.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dally not with mony or women. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49191]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dally not with mony or women.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By the golden chain Homer meant nothing else than the sun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20873]]></link><description><![CDATA[By the golden chain Homer meant nothing else than the sun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obviously, it's for the musicians, to get the bands back together and play some music, because a lot of these ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38519]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obviously, it's for the musicians, to get the bands back together and play some music, because a lot of these guys don't play anymore.
