Christians are to be the makers of Christ's peace. Something we can all do is to reconcile individuals, families, classes, churches, nations. The question is, Are we, as churchmen and citizens, by work and by prayer, in our private conduct and our public action, doing our utmost with deliberate, unsparing effort! If so, our benediction is of the highest: it is to be, and to be acknowledged as being, sons of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ingratitude is the essence of vileness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20887]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ingratitude is the essence of vileness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It may be that the race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong -- but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1014]]></link><description><![CDATA[It may be that the race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong -- but that is the way to bet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1014</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Roger Youderian, Ed McCully, and Pete Fleming, martyrs, Equador, 1956  Oh, the fullness, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7681]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Roger Youderian, Ed McCully, and Pete Fleming, martyrs, Equador, 1956  Oh, the fullness, pleasure, sheer excitement of knowing God on Earth!

For instance, although there are some 200,000 "errors" among the New Testament manuscripts, these appear in only about 10,000 places, and only about one-sixtieth rise above the level of trivialities. Westcott and Hort, Ezra Abbot, Philip Schaff, and A. T. Robertson have carefully evaluated the evidence and have concluded that the New Testament text is over 99 percent pure. In the light of the fact that there are over 5,000 Greek manuscripts, some 9,000 versions and translations, the evidence for the integrity of the New Testament is beyond question.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We competed better in the second half, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30662]]></link><description><![CDATA[We competed better in the second half,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This has certainly been an exceptional year.
