Where it is possible that fear should exist it is well that it should exist, cause continual uneasiness, and be cast out by nothing less than love.... Until love, which is the truth towards God, is able to cast out fear, it is well that fear should hold; it is a bond, however poor, between that which is and that which creates -- a bond that must be broken, but a bond that can be broken only by the tightening of an infinitely closer bond. Verily God must be terrible to those that are far from Him: for they fear He will do -- yea, is doing -- with them what they do not, cannot desire, and can ill endure... While they are such as they are, there is much in Him that cannot but affright them: they ought, they do well, to fear Him... To remove that fear from their hearts, save by letting them know His love with its purifying fire, a love which for ages, it may be, they cannot know, would be to give them up utterly to the power of evil. Persuade men that fear is a vile thing, that it is an insult to God, that He will have none of it -- while they are yet in love with their own will, and slaves to every movement of passionate impulse -- and what will the consequence be? That they will insult God as a discarded idol, a superstition, a falsehood, as a thing under whose evil influence they have too long groaned, a thing to be cast out and spit upon. After that, how much will they learn of Him?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a significant improvement in survival for women with this disease, which is most often diagnosed at an advanced ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33369]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a significant improvement in survival for women with this disease, which is most often diagnosed at an advanced stage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When it comes to privacy and accountability, people always demand the former for themselves and the latter for everyone else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48271]]></link><description><![CDATA[When it comes to privacy and accountability, people always demand the former for themselves and the latter for everyone else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sounder your argument, the more satisfaction you get out of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3061]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sounder your argument, the more satisfaction you get out of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean. -David Searls. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18366]]></link><description><![CDATA[Seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean. -David Searls.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody will ever win the battle of the sexes.
