It only behooves us to labor that we may be vessels of gold or of silver. But to break in pieces the vessels of earth belongs to the Lord alone, to whom a rod of iron is also given. Nor let any one arrogate to himself what is exclusively the province of the Son of God, by pretending to fan the floor, clear away the chaff, and separate all the tares by the Judgment of man. This is proud obstinacy and sacrilegious presumption, originating in a corrupt frenzy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6528</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If thou shouldst never see my face again,Pray for my soul.

This, I believe, is partly due to man's enormous technical successes, which make him feel master of the human situation. But it is also partly due to our scholars and experts. By the time they have finished with their dissection of the New Testament and with their explaining away as "myth" all that they find disquieting or unacceptable to the modern mind, the Christian way of life is little more than humanism with a slight tinge of religion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7779</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46451]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46451</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nostalgia is like a grammar lesson: You find the present tense and the past perfect ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18121]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nostalgia is like a grammar lesson: You find the present tense and the past perfect]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And spare the poet for his subject's sake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46856]]></link><description><![CDATA[And spare the poet for his subject's sake.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sow that was washed is turned to her wallowing in the mire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51033]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sow that was washed is turned to her wallowing in the mire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Guilt is a sure sign your thinking is unnatural.*HS was the amanuensis for the Course In Miracles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18510]]></link><description><![CDATA[Guilt is a sure sign your thinking is unnatural.*HS was the amanuensis for the Course In Miracles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's important that I make a difference in some way.
