That we ought, without anxiety, to expect the pardon of our sins from the blood of Jesus Christ, only endeavoring to love Him with all our hearts. That God seemed to have granted the greatest favors to the greatest sinners, as more signal monuments of His mercy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They're a solid church; my family goes there, ...

I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them, the revelation of God to men was made -- or appeared to be made -- less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided, and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took hundreds of years and thousands of lives, but the Universe finally taught me it's one and only lesson. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53240]]></link><description><![CDATA[It took hundreds of years and thousands of lives, but the Universe finally taught me it's one and only lesson.
