But it was different with those who could claim no such prerogative, and with those Jews who had become uneasy as to the grounds of such a relation and their validity -- in a word, with any who had been led by conscience to take a deeper view of the consequences of sin. So long as these were found mainly in punishment, suffering, judgment, so long 'remission of sins' -- letting off the consequences -- might suffice. But when it was recognized that sin had a far more serious consequence in alienation from God, the severing of the fellowship between God and His children, then Justification... ceased to be sufficient. 'Forgiveness' took on a deeper meaning; it connoted restoration of the fellowship, the establishment or reestablishment of a relation which could be described on the one side as fatherly, on the other as filial.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the old dog barke he gives counsell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49515]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the old dog barke he gives counsell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So the gods bless me, When all our offices have been oppressed  With riotous feeders, when our vaults have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27418]]></link><description><![CDATA[So the gods bless me, When all our offices have been oppressed  With riotous feeders, when our vaults have wept   With drunken spilth of wine, when every room    Hath blazed with lights and brayed with minstrelsy,     I have retired me to a wasteful cock      And set mine eyes at flow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With various readings stored his empty skull, Learn'd without sense, and venerably dull. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58066]]></link><description><![CDATA[With various readings stored his empty skull, Learn'd without sense, and venerably dull.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be nice to people on your way up because you might meet 'em on your way down. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2321]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be nice to people on your way up because you might meet 'em on your way down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We search the world for truth; we cull The good, the pure, the beautiful,  From all old flower fields ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54922]]></link><description><![CDATA[We search the world for truth; we cull The good, the pure, the beautiful,  From all old flower fields of the soul;   And, weary seeker of the best,    We come back laden from out quest,     To find that all the sages said      Is in the Book our mothers read.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is God's gift, that's why we call it the present. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59008]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is God's gift, that's why we call it the present.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Gateway to Soldiers began with a delivery of about 153 bulletproof vests to Camp Shelby, Miss., for the 153rd CAV ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29969]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Gateway to Soldiers began with a delivery of about 153 bulletproof vests to Camp Shelby, Miss., for the 153rd CAV unit out of Ocala.
