One side of Christ's work will appeal most to one mind, another to another. The mistake that is often made by those who speak most about Christian experience is that they are so apt to insist upon everyone else's experience -- on penalty of its utter worthlessness -- being exactly the same as their own. The great thing is that we should be attracted by Christ in some way, that we should come to God in that spirit of penitence which Christ taught was the one condition of acceptance with Him, and with that steady purpose of amendment which is, as he always taught, a part of true penitence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A sadder and a wiser man, He rose the morrow morn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14673]]></link><description><![CDATA[A sadder and a wiser man, He rose the morrow morn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Real rebels are rarely anything but second rate outside their rebellion; the drain of time and temper is ruinous to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53147]]></link><description><![CDATA[Real rebels are rarely anything but second rate outside their rebellion; the drain of time and temper is ruinous to any other accomplishment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53147</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is more hid in Christ than we shall ever learn, here or there either; but they that begin first ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8225]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is more hid in Christ than we shall ever learn, here or there either; but they that begin first to inquire will soonest be gladdened with revelation; and with them He will be best pleased, for the slowness of His disciples troubled Him of old. To say that we must wait for the other world, to know the mind of Him who came to this world to give Himself to us, seems to me the foolishness of a worldly and lazy spirit. The Son of God is the teacher of men, giving to them of His Spirit -- that Spirit which manifests the deep things of God, being to a man the mind of Christ. The great heresy of the Church of the present day is unbelief in this Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A basic principle in the interpretation of the Bible is that one must first ask what a given Scripture was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7629]]></link><description><![CDATA[A basic principle in the interpretation of the Bible is that one must first ask what a given Scripture was intended to mean to the people for whom it was originally written; only then is the interpreter free to ask what meaning it has for Christians today. Failure to ask this primary question and to investigate the historical setting of Scripture have prevented many Christians from coming to a correct understanding of some parts of the Bible. Nowhere is this more true than in respect to the last book in the Bible. Here, there has been a singular lack of appreciation for the historical background of the book; the book has been interpreted as if it were primarily written for the day in which the expositor lives (which is usually thought to be the end time), rather than in terms of what it meant to the first-century Christians of the Roman province of Asia for whom it was originally written. This has resulted in all sorts of grotesque and fantastic conclusions of which the author of the Revelation and its early recipients never would have dreamed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I made a $50 bet -- a lot of money then -- with my coach that I'd win a medal. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33355]]></link><description><![CDATA[I made a $50 bet -- a lot of money then -- with my coach that I'd win a medal.
