There is a total difference between surviving sin and reigning sin, the regenerate in conflict with sin and the unregenerate complacent to sin. It is one thing for sin to live in us: it is another for us to live in sin. It is of paramount concern for the Christian and for the interests of his sanctification that he should know that sin does not have the dominion over him, that the forces of redeeming, regenerative, and sanctifying grace have been brought to bear upon him in that which is central in his moral and spiritual being, that he is the habitation of God through the Spirit, and that Christ has been formed in him the hope of glory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Industry, perseverance, and frugality make fortune yield. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16597]]></link><description><![CDATA[Industry, perseverance, and frugality make fortune yield.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16597</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[mayor of Capitol Hill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36851]]></link><description><![CDATA[mayor of Capitol Hill.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When mistrust comes in, love goes out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42850]]></link><description><![CDATA[When mistrust comes in, love goes out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26512]]></link><description><![CDATA[A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any additional rate increases would need to be precipitated by higher inflation or above-trend growth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29105]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any additional rate increases would need to be precipitated by higher inflation or above-trend growth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45036]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need to make sure that we are prepared when and if something does happen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42353]]></link><description><![CDATA[We need to make sure that we are prepared when and if something does happen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My mother-in-law broke up my marriage.

You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity asa vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise ingiving. A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can giveyourself gifts that may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, orsome time each day with no purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough toaccept these gifts without obligation-to simply receive from yourself, andfrom the universe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O what a loud and fearful shriek was there! . . .  Ah me! they view'd beneath an hireling's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16673]]></link><description><![CDATA[O what a loud and fearful shriek was there! . . .  Ah me! they view'd beneath an hireling's sword   Fallen Kosciusco.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is necessary to work, if not from inclination, at least from despair.

A very ordinary thing acquires a new value, if it has been possessed by some famous person. In any museum we will find quite ordinary things--clothes, a walking-stick, a pen, pieces of furniture--which are only of value because they were possessed and used by some great person. It is the ownership which gives them worth. It is so with the Christian. The Christian may be a very ordinary person, but he acquires a new value and dignity and greatness because he belongs to God. The greatness of the Christian lies in the fact that he is God's.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would much rather have men ask why I have no statue than why I have one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19425]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would much rather have men ask why I have no statue than why I have one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any solution to a problem changes the problem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44218]]></link><description><![CDATA[Any solution to a problem changes the problem.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was an enormous surprise when they called me last Wednesday. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41629]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was an enormous surprise when they called me last Wednesday.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We twa hae run about the braes, And pu'd the gowans fine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16761]]></link><description><![CDATA[We twa hae run about the braes, And pu'd the gowans fine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great men stand like solitary towers in the city of God. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18266]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great men stand like solitary towers in the city of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shallows where a lamb could wade and depths where an elephant would drown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Shallows where a lamb could wade and depths where an elephant would drown.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best ideas come as jokes.
