But -- I know not well whence it comes to pass -- the things spoken do not abide nor incorporate in our minds. They please and refresh for a little while, like a shower of rain in a dry season, that soaketh not unto the roots of things; the power of them doth not enter into us. Is it not from hence, that their notions of future things are not educed out of the experience which we have of the beginnings of them in this world? Yea, the soul is disturbed, not edified, in all contemplations of future glory, where things are proposed to it whereof in this life it hath neither foretaste, sense, experience, nor evidence. No man ought to look for anything in heaven, but what one way or other he hath some experience of in this life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An ounce of performance is worth pounds of promises. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9001]]></link><description><![CDATA[An ounce of performance is worth pounds of promises.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We laid it on the line.

The state of slavery described in Romans 7 is a slavery to wrong desires; not merely to "flesh" in the abstract, as implying our material nature and environment, but to the "mind of the flesh" -- the lower nature and environment made a part of one's conscious self. What the Law could not do, God has done by the gift of the Spirit of Christ: He has given the victory to the higher self. "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." (II Cor. 3:17) "The Law of the Spirit -- the law of a life in communion with Christ Jesus -- has made me free from the law of sin and death." (Rom. 8:2) Whereas life was a hopeless struggle, it now becomes a struggle in which the handicap is removed, and victory already secured in principle, because God has come into the life. The Law was external; it was the taskmaster set over against the troubled and fettered will of man. The Spirit is within, the mind of the Spirit is the mind of the man himself, and from within works out a growing perfection of life which satisfies the real longing of the soul. In the full sense freedom is still an object of hope; but the liberty already attained makes possible the building up of a Christian morality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Autumn is a second spring where every leaf is a flower ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54946]]></link><description><![CDATA[Autumn is a second spring where every leaf is a flower]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54946</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leaders create an environment which everyone has the opportunity to do work which matches his potential capability and for which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22547]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leaders create an environment which everyone has the opportunity to do work which matches his potential capability and for which an equitable differential reward is provided.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not completely finalized, but I talked with Steve (Wednesday) and he has given me a proxy to go ahead. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30306]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's not completely finalized, but I talked with Steve (Wednesday) and he has given me a proxy to go ahead.
