It is because His sufferings, His death and cross, were the fulness of His victory over all the works of the devil. Not an evil in flesh and blood, not a misery of life, not a chain of death, not a power of hell and darkness, but were all baffled, broken, and overcome by the process of a suffering and dying Christ. Well, therefore, may the cross of Christ be the glory of Christians!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature has given man one tongue, but two ears, that we may hear twice as much as we speak ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43758]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature has given man one tongue, but two ears, that we may hear twice as much as we speak]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43758</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Writing, to me, is simply thinking through my fingers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36753]]></link><description><![CDATA[Writing, to me, is simply thinking through my fingers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36753</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Jews would not willingly tread upon the smallest piece of paper in their way, but took it up; for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8239]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Jews would not willingly tread upon the smallest piece of paper in their way, but took it up; for possibly, they say, the name of God may be on it.

Trample not on any; there may be some work of grace there, that thou knowest not of.
