In that very chapter [Romans 7] where he asserts most strongly our inability to keep the moral law he also asserts most confidently that we perceive the Law's goodness and rejoice in it according to the inward man. Our righteousness may be filthy and ragged; but Christianity gives us no ground for holding that our perceptions of right are in the same condition. They may, no doubt, be impaired; but there is a difference between imperfect sight and blindness. A theology which goes about to represent our practical reason as radically unsound is heading for disaster. If we once admit that what God means by "goodness" is sheerly different from what we judge to be good, there is no difference left between pure religion and devil worship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is foolhardy to climb two trees at once just because one has two feet. - Ethiopia ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28504]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is foolhardy to climb two trees at once just because one has two feet. - Ethiopia]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I always read the last page of a book first so that if I die before I finish I'll know ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65544]]></link><description><![CDATA[I always read the last page of a book first so that if I die before I finish I'll know how it turned out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Woman's happiness begins with her first love and ends about then ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16046]]></link><description><![CDATA[Woman's happiness begins with her first love and ends about then]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16046</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it will work out to our advantage more so than worrying about who's going to play.
