To put it in a provocative manner: the Bible is theology. It is historical theology. It can reveal its meaning only to those who regard it as the Word of God, and are able to preserve a strict confidence in the universal significance of particular historical occasions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I couldn't use the public restrooms because they weren't working.

It is not an idea in the air but feet on the ground going God's way. It is not an exotic to be kept under glass, but a hardy plant to bear twelve months of fruits in all kinds of weather. Fidelity to duty is its root and branch. Nothing we can say to the Lord, no calling Him by great or dear names, can take the place of the plain doing of His will. We may cry out about the beauty of eating bread with Him in His kingdom, but it is wasted breath and a rootless hope unless we plow and plant in His kingdom here and now. To remember Him at His table and to forget Him at ours, is to have invested in bad securities. There is no substitute for plain, every-day goodness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Worthy books Are not companions--they are solitudes:  We lose ourselves in them and all our cares. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4533]]></link><description><![CDATA[Worthy books Are not companions--they are solitudes:  We lose ourselves in them and all our cares.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I just put my feet in the air and move them around. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35160]]></link><description><![CDATA[I just put my feet in the air and move them around.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the wisdom to distinguish one from the other. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53681]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the wisdom to distinguish one from the other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With the time compression we have in the world, people are interested ... in fitness facilities for casual use and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31109]]></link><description><![CDATA[With the time compression we have in the world, people are interested ... in fitness facilities for casual use and paths in parks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31109</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dangers bring fears, and fears more dangers bring. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15498]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dangers bring fears, and fears more dangers bring.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thoughts of Plato and Machiavelli... don't seem quite enough armor for a world beset with splitting the atoms, urban ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56919]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thoughts of Plato and Machiavelli... don't seem quite enough armor for a world beset with splitting the atoms, urban guerrillas, nineteen varieties of psychotherapists, amplified guitars, napalm, computers, astronauts, and an atmosphere polluted simultaneously with auto exhaust and TV commercials.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alas! how easily things go wrong! A sigh too deep, or a kiss too long,  And then comes a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62458]]></link><description><![CDATA[Alas! how easily things go wrong! A sigh too deep, or a kiss too long,  And then comes a mist and a weeping rain,   And life is never the same again.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He jests at scars that never felt a wound ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58192]]></link><description><![CDATA[He jests at scars that never felt a wound]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether it's one dollar from a kid, or five, 10 or 20 dollars from an adult, it all adds up, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether it's one dollar from a kid, or five, 10 or 20 dollars from an adult, it all adds up,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Delay is a great procuress ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Delay is a great procuress]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no use for men who fail.
