That the Christian religion is only a declaration of God's goodwill to us, without any expectation of duty from us -- this is an error which one could hardly think could ever enter into any who have the liberty to read the Bible and attend to what they read and find there. The three great promises of the gospel are all very expressly contained in our Saviour's first sermon upon the mount. There we find the promise of blessedness often repeated but never absolutely made, but upon certain conditions, plainly required on our part, as repentance, righteousness, humility, mercy, peaceableness, meekness, patience. Forgiveness of sins is likewise promised, but only to those who make a penitent acknowledgement of them and ask forgiveness for them., and are ready to grant that forgiveness to others which they beg of God for themselves. The gift of God's Holy Spirit is likewise promised, but it is upon condition of our earnest and importunate prayer to God. The gospel is everywhere full of precepts enjoining duty and obedience upon our part, as well as of promises on God's part, assuring blessings to us -- nay, full of terrible threatenings also if we disobey the precepts of the gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had not planned on having any vote, other than just to study (the contract), ...

We hover around these reservations, making believe not to see them, for fear of self-reproach. The more we shrink from giving up any such reserved point, the more certain it is that it needs to be given up. If we were not fast bound by it, we should not make so many efforts to persuade ourselves that we are free.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune truly helps those who are of good judgment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16585]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune truly helps those who are of good judgment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Wolf and the LambWOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1608]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Wolf and the LambWOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations." The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important thing in a relationship between a man and a woman is that one of them must be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27183]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most important thing in a relationship between a man and a woman is that one of them must be good at taking orders.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trust not one nights ice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50023]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trust not one nights ice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50023</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An ideal wife is one who remains faithful to you but tries to be just as charming as if she ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15637]]></link><description><![CDATA[An ideal wife is one who remains faithful to you but tries to be just as charming as if she weren't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who dares think one thing, and another tell, My heart detests him as the gates of hell. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26127]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who dares think one thing, and another tell, My heart detests him as the gates of hell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26127</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prosperity doth bewitch men, seeming clear; As seas do laugh, show white, when rocks are near. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48499]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prosperity doth bewitch men, seeming clear; As seas do laugh, show white, when rocks are near.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62890]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just don't really like each other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28588]]></link><description><![CDATA[We just don't really like each other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that everything you do bad comes back to you.

Sin also appears in attitudes and dispositions and feelings. Lust and hate are sins as well as adultery and murder. And, in the traditional Christian view, despair and chronic boredom -- unaccompanied by any vicious act -- are serious sins. They are expressions of man's separation from God, as the ultimate good, meaning, and end of human existence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just felt that Mark has never looked fitter when I saw him at the last training camp in Holland. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35964]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just felt that Mark has never looked fitter when I saw him at the last training camp in Holland.
