They think a saying of Epictetus, or Seneca, or Arrianus, being wittily suited to their fancies and affections, to have more life and power in it than any precept of the Gospel. The reason why these things are more pleasing unto them than the commands and instructions of Christ is because, proceeding from the spring of natural light, they are suited to the workings of natural fancy and understanding; but those of Christ, proceeding from the fountain of eternal spiritual light, are not comprehended in their beauty and excellency without a principle of the same light in us, guiding our understanding and influencing our affections. Hence, take any precept, general or particular, about moral duties, that is materially the same in the writings of philosophers and in the doctrine of the Gospel; not a few prefer it as delivered in the first way before the latter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Enjoy thankfully any happy hour heaven may send you, nor think that your delights will keep till another year. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50213]]></link><description><![CDATA[Enjoy thankfully any happy hour heaven may send you, nor think that your delights will keep till another year.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together; our virtues would be proud if ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51222]]></link><description><![CDATA[The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together; our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not, and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our virtues.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51222</guid></item></channel></rss>
