There are siren voices (as well as gut reactions) telling Christians that the way to success in evangelism is to follow the natural divisions, and to try to build churches along cultural, social and racial divisions. In doing so, they ignore the "success" in the New Testament in crossing these lines; more importantly, they are in fact stressing success more highly than the truth of the gospel. To buy success at the price of treating the fundamental nature of the gospel as dispensable is to follow a false gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people to not ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/117]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people to not kill each other?

For how many men--we put it to your own experience, reader--have made their way through the thronging crowds that beset fortune, not by the innate worth and excellence of their hats, but simply, as Sampson Piebald has it, by 'the cock of their hats'? The cock's all."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The union of the Word and the Mind produces that mystery which is called Life...

But if we should feel entitled to throw out one part of the witness of Ephesians to Christ, why not the rest of it also: for instance, Christ's Lordship over the church and in the heart? It is unfair and scarcely honest to consider the Bible or parts of it as a cake from which we can pick out merely the raisins we happen to like. Speaking the truth in love and witnessing to the biblical Christ may imply the necessity to speak also of some very strange things.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death cancels everything but truth ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11456]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death cancels everything but truth]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many men owe the grandeur of their lives to the tremendous difficulties ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59159]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many men owe the grandeur of their lives to the tremendous difficulties]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is nobler to convert souls, than to conquer kingdoms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52137]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is nobler to convert souls, than to conquer kingdoms.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In time we hate that which we often fear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18862]]></link><description><![CDATA[In time we hate that which we often fear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ask yourself whether the dream of heaven and greatness should be waiting for us in our graves - or whether ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13108]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ask yourself whether the dream of heaven and greatness should be waiting for us in our graves - or whether it should be ours here and now and on this earth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sin lies only in hurting others unnecessarily.
