The affliction is light and temporary when compared with the all-surpassing and everlasting glory. So Paul, writing against a background of recent and (even for him) unparalleled tribulation, had assured his friends in Corinth a year or two before this that 'this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison' (2 Cor 4:17). It is not merely that the glory is a compensation for the suffering; it actually grows out of the suffering. There is an organic relation between the two for the believer as surely as there was for the Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6325</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Staying up all night is a waste of sleeping, and a waste of sleepingis a waste of dreaming, and dreaming ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22241]]></link><description><![CDATA[Staying up all night is a waste of sleeping, and a waste of sleepingis a waste of dreaming, and dreaming is important because the moredreams you have, the better chance of one coming true.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22241</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Experience is the only prophecy of wise men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/982]]></link><description><![CDATA[Experience is the only prophecy of wise men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you think you can win, you can.

It may be quite childish, a sort of undignified pastime -- I'm referring to the kind of suffering a man inflicts on a woman or a woman on a man. It's extremely painful.

Many honest Christian people experience the shock of a revelation when they are brought to realize that their membership of the Church constitutes a loyalty prior to their loyalty to the nation to which they belong. Patriotism is one of the powerful underground pseudo-religions of to-day, not merely nationalism. The fundamental notion that the Christians are a "peculiar people" that never is identical, or even can be, with a people in the biological, national sense of the word, is largely asleep. It can only become awake by a new grasp of the biblical truth that the Church is the "people of God", an elect race composed of people out of all nations, transcending all nations and races.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26568]]></link><description><![CDATA[I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more backwoodish a social group, juvenile or adult, the stricter its conception of the normal, and the readier it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56782]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more backwoodish a social group, juvenile or adult, the stricter its conception of the normal, and the readier it will ridicule any departure from it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How much easier is it to be generous than just. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17267]]></link><description><![CDATA[How much easier is it to be generous than just.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who does not feel his friends to be the world to him, does not deserve that the world should ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60325]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who does not feel his friends to be the world to him, does not deserve that the world should hear of him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60325</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure is a shadow, wealth is vanity, and power a pageant; butknowledge is ecstatic in enjoyment, perennial in frame, unlimited ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21591]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure is a shadow, wealth is vanity, and power a pageant; butknowledge is ecstatic in enjoyment, perennial in frame, unlimited in spaceand indefinite in duration.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The reality was my staff and I had every intention of coming back.

Man knows his sin, which without temptation he could never have known; for in temptation man knows on what he has set his heart. The coming to light of sin is the work of the accuser, who thereby thinks to have won the victory. But it is sin which is become manifest which can be known, and therefore forgiven. Thus the manifestation of sin belongs to the salvation plan of God with man, and Satan must serve this plan.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thinking is heavily endorsed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21961]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thinking is heavily endorsed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21961</guid></item></channel></rss>
