For my part, I must not only say, but plead whilst I live in this world, and leave this testimony to the present and future ages, if these papers see the light and do survive, that if I have ever seen any thing in the ways and worship of God wherein the power of religion or godliness hath been expressed, any thing that hath represented the holiness of the gospel and the Author of it, any thing that hath looked like a preludium unto the everlasting Sabbath and rest with God, which we aim through grace to come unto, it hath been there and with them where and amongst whom the Lord's day hath been had in highest esteem, and a strict observation of it attended unto, as an ordinance of our Lord Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I have an idea, I turn down the flame, as if it were a little alcohol stove, as low ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65888]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I have an idea, I turn down the flame, as if it were a little alcohol stove, as low as it will go.

The mystic soul may impatiently think so, but the moral soul finds such mediation the way to reality; and the mystic experience is not quite trustworthy about reality. The pagan gods had no mediators, because they were not real or good gods; but the living God has a living Revealer. To know the living God is to know Christ; to know Christ is to know the living God. We do not know God by Christ but in Him. We find God when we find Christ; and in Christ alone we know and share his final purpose. Our last knowledge is not the contact of our person with a thing or a thought; it is intercourse of person and person.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Through tattered clothes small vices do appear; Robes and furred gowns hide all.
