Therefore I do not see how it is possible in the nature of things for any revival of religion to continue long. For religion must necessarily produce both industry and frugality, and these cannot but produce riches. But as riches increase, so will pride, anger, and love of the world in all its branches. How then is it possible that Methodism, that is a religion of the heart, though it flourishes now as the green bay tree, should continue in this state? For the Methodists in every place grow diligent and frugal; consequently, they increase in goods. Hence, they proportionately increase in pride, in anger, in the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life. So, although the form of religion remains, the spirit is swiftly vanishing away. Is there no way to prevent ... this continual decay of pure religion?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A "good" family, it seems, is one that used to be better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32018]]></link><description><![CDATA[A "good" family, it seems, is one that used to be better.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too much agreement kills a chat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1918]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too much agreement kills a chat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He and I had an office so tiny that an inch smaller and it would have been adultery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5096]]></link><description><![CDATA[He and I had an office so tiny that an inch smaller and it would have been adultery.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most folks are about as happy as they make their minds up to be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43236]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most folks are about as happy as they make their minds up to be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43236</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's just a senior and a leader doing what he is supposed to do.
