Consider Christ's proceeding with Peter in the ship, in the storm: First he suffered him to be in some danger in the storm, but then he visits him with that strong assurance, "Be not afraid, It is I": any testimony of his presence rectifies all. This puts Peter into that spiritual confidence and courage, "Lord bid me come to thee"; he hath a desire to be with Christ, but yet stays his bidding: he puts not himself into an unnecessary danger, without commandment: Christ bids him, and Peter comes: but yet, though Christ were in his sight, and even in the actual exercise of his love to him, so soon as he saw a gust, a storm, "He was afraid"; and Christ lets him fear, and lets him sink, and lets him cry, but he directs his fear and his cry to the right end: "Lord, save me"; and thereupon he stretched forth his hand and saved him...   God puts his children into good ways, and he directs and protects them in those ways; for this is the constancy and perseverence of the love of Jesus Christ to us, as he is called in this text (Matt. 21:44), a stone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that doth what he should not, shall feele what he would not. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49334]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that doth what he should not, shall feele what he would not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A person should not promise to give a child something and then not give it, because in that way the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5950]]></link><description><![CDATA[A person should not promise to give a child something and then not give it, because in that way the child learns to lie.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5950</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All human progress, even in morals, has been the work of men who have doubted the current moral values, not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57057]]></link><description><![CDATA[All human progress, even in morals, has been the work of men who have doubted the current moral values, not of men who have whooped them up and tried to enforce them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57057</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conferences at the top level are always courteous.

The various members belong organically to each other in Christ, and are to exhibit that harmony practically in their common life. The recognition of how they differ from each other, and are yet one, is to enrich their worship, inspire their ministry, and quicken their love. To divide the local church is... to witness to a divided Christ, or to a discipleship to lesser masters than Christ, such as Paul or Apollos. Both implications are equally unthinkable. There is no New Testament pattern of serving the one Christ, except in one local body, formed by the incorporation given in the one baptism, and the continued life sustained by breaking and sharing the one bread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Irenæus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  We must never speak to simple, excitable people about "the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8515]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Irenæus, Bishop of Lyons, Teacher, Martyr, c.200  We must never speak to simple, excitable people about "the Day" without emphasizing again and again the utter impossibility of prediction. We must try to show them that that impossibility is an essential part of the doctrine. If you do not believe our Lord's words, why do you believe in His return at all? And if you do believe them, must you not put away from you, utterly and forever, any hope of dating that return?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vainly the fowler's eye Might mark thy distant flight to do thee wrong,  As, darkly painted on the crimson ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vainly the fowler's eye Might mark thy distant flight to do thee wrong,  As, darkly painted on the crimson sky,   Thy figure floats along.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The opposition is indispensable.
