We should therefore take care not to derive the least portion of it from anywhere else. If we seek salvation, we are taught by the very name of Jesus that it is "of him". If we seek any other gifts of the Spirit, they will be found in his anointing. If we seek strength, it lies in his dominion; if purity, in his conception; if gentleness, it appears in his birth. For by his birth he was made like us in all respects that he might learn to feel our pain. If we seek redemption, it lies in his passion; if acquittal, in his condemnation; if remission of the curse, in his cross; if satisfaction, in his sacrifice; if purification, in his blood; if reconciliation, in his descent into hell; if mortification of the flesh, in his tomb; if newness of life, in his resurrection; if immortality, in the same; if inheritance of the Heavenly Kingdom, in his entrance into heaven; if protection, if security, if abundant supply of all blessings, in his Kingdom; if untroubled expectation of judgment, in the power given to him to judge. In short, since rich store of every kind of good abounds in him, let us drink our fill from this fountain, and from no other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the first time in three years we saw an increase in domestic same-store rental revenues and we believe that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38635]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the first time in three years we saw an increase in domestic same-store rental revenues and we believe that our combined in-store and online rental offering will allow us to further increase our market share and outperform the domestic rental industry in 2006.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more that you read, the more things you will know.

Each part of Scripture, both open and dark, teaches meekness and charity; and therefore he that keeps meekness and charity has the true understanding and perfection of all Scripture. Therefore, no simple man of wit should be afraid to study in the text of Scripture. And no cleric should be proud of the true understanding of Scripture, because understanding of Scripture without charity that keeps God's commandments, makes a man deeper damned... and pride and covetousness of clerics is the cause of [the Church's] blindness and heresy, and deprives them of the true understanding of Scripture.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oft in the tranquil hour of night, When stars illume the sky,  I gaze upon each orb of light, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/150]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oft in the tranquil hour of night, When stars illume the sky,  I gaze upon each orb of light,   And wish that thou wert by.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/150</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hair is the first thing.
