Genesis itself presents the movement from Haran to Canaan as an individual, unique act undertaken in response to a divine call -- an event, not an incident -- that inaugurates a new and decisive stage in God's plan of history. The factuality or otherwise of this Biblical evaluation lies beyond the scope of scholarly research.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Thames is liquid history. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19485]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Thames is liquid history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19485</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beneath me flows the Rhine, and, like the stream of Time, it flows amid the ruins of the Past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beneath me flows the Rhine, and, like the stream of Time, it flows amid the ruins of the Past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's in the reaction of others that perfection is found in the flawed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46242]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's in the reaction of others that perfection is found in the flawed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once we know our weaknesses they cease to do us any harm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15065]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once we know our weaknesses they cease to do us any harm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are pleased to be able to provide Boiling Springs Savings Bank with a first-class Identity and Trust Assurance solution ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42366]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are pleased to be able to provide Boiling Springs Savings Bank with a first-class Identity and Trust Assurance solution for its online customer base.
