He does not advise them to find a happy medium between the contending opinions or to average the two extremes in a compromise. On the contrary, he admonished them that "every one be fully convinced in his own mind" (Rom. 14:5), because God is able to make both stand, as both of them are serving the Lord in obedience to their individual convictions of His will... Each of us has to find personally what is the will of God for his own life, and let all others meet their responsibility to do the same... For God, by giving different commands to many, and putting them together according to His plan, shall accomplish ultimately His complete will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24379]]></link><description><![CDATA[Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People in the computer industry use the term 'user,' which to them means 'idiot.'. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9528]]></link><description><![CDATA[People in the computer industry use the term 'user,' which to them means 'idiot.'.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As our cooperation with the IAEA is on the right track, I believe the report will be positive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35723]]></link><description><![CDATA[As our cooperation with the IAEA is on the right track, I believe the report will be positive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maturity is the capacity to endure uncertainty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maturity is the capacity to endure uncertainty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If temptation were really what natural man and moral man understand by it, namely, testing of their own strength -- ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8614]]></link><description><![CDATA[If temptation were really what natural man and moral man understand by it, namely, testing of their own strength -- whether their vital or their moral or even their Christian strength -- in resistance, on the enemy, then it is true that Christ's prayer would be incomprehensible. For that life is won only from death and the good only from the evil is a piece of thoroughly worldly knowledge which is not strange to the Christian. But all this has nothing to do with the temptation of which Christ speaks. It simply does not touch the reality which is meant here. The temptation of which the whole Bible speaks does not have to do with the testing of my strength, for it is of the very essence of temptation in the Bible that all my strength -- to my horror, and without my being able to do anything about it -- is turned against me; really all my powers, including my good and pious powers (the strength of my faith), fall into the hands of the enemy power and are now led into the field against me. Before there can be any testing of my powers, I have been robbed of them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[College is the best time of your life.
