But herein is the Bible greatly wronged. It nowhere lays claim to be regarded as the Word, the Way, the Truth. The Bible leads us to Jesus, the inexhaustible, the ever-unfolding Revelation of God. It is Christ "in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge", not the Bible, save as leading to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His behavior changed.

The two ideas of Free-will and Divine Sovereignty can not be reconciled in our own minds, but that does not prevent them from being reconciled in God's mind. We measure Him by our own intellectual standard if we think otherwise. And so our solution of the problem of Free-will and of the problems of history and of individual salvation must finally lie in the full acceptance and realisation of what is implied by the infinity and the omniscience of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The nerve that never relaxes, the eye that never blanches, the thought that never wanders, the purpose that never wavers ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46183]]></link><description><![CDATA[The nerve that never relaxes, the eye that never blanches, the thought that never wanders, the purpose that never wavers - these are the masters of victory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A religion without a goddess is halfway to atheism ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3416]]></link><description><![CDATA[A religion without a goddess is halfway to atheism]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Scots are poor, cries surly English pride; True is the charge, nor by themselves denied.  Are they not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54890]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Scots are poor, cries surly English pride; True is the charge, nor by themselves denied.  Are they not then in strictest reason clear,   Who wisely come to mend their fortunes here?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3876]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3876</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams are like stars...you may never touch them, but if you follow them they will lead you to your destiny. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12051]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dreams are like stars...you may never touch them, but if you follow them they will lead you to your destiny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633  If I be bound to pray for all that be in distress, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7143]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633  If I be bound to pray for all that be in distress, surely I am bound, so far as it is in my power, to practice what I pray for.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Achieve success in any area of life by identifying the optimumstrategies and repeating them until they become habits. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22416]]></link><description><![CDATA[Achieve success in any area of life by identifying the optimumstrategies and repeating them until they become habits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We looked at the future map and it said agriculture.

That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then - to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn." Ropo Oguntimehin Education is a companion which no future can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate it and no nepotism can enslave. -T.H.
