But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Never see . . . a dead post-boy, did you?" inquired Sam. . . .

The best games are not those in whichall goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those inwhich the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life isdesigned to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty anduncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one.
