How, then, is it with you and me? Be very sure that upon Calvary it was no strange, immoral favouritism that came into operation, whereby because of some beliefs that remain mere dead letters, that produce no change whatever in their characters, some people living the same kind of life as others and following the same selfish interests and ends as they, are given a destiny entirely different. That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm a strong believer in commitment to a place. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38383]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm a strong believer in commitment to a place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I could have begged.
