If these are gifted with heroic qualities, to vanquish the oppressors of Israel, it is nevertheless not this heroism that forms their principal characteristic. That consists in judging. They restore... the authority of the law. For this reason, God raises up judges, not princes. The title sets forth both their work and the occasion of their appointment. Israel is free and powerful when its law is observed throughout the land.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6862</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I threw him back.

He has called some to be "player-coaches" ... to equip the laity for the ministry they are to fulfill. This equipping ministry is of unique importance. One is appointed to this ministry by the Holy Spirit; therefore it must be undertaken with utmost seriousness. This is a radical departure from the traditional understanding of the roles of the laity and the clergy. The laity had the idea that they were already committed to a "full-time" vocation in the secular world, [and] thus they did not have time -- at least, much time -- to do God's work. Therefore they contributed money to "free" the clergy to have the time needed to fulfill God's ministry. This view is rank heresy. If we follow this pattern, we may continue to do God's work until the Lord comes again and never fulfill God's purpose as it ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things. [Lat., Memoria est thesaurus omnium rerum e custos.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things. [Lat., Memoria est thesaurus omnium rerum e custos.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For as our modern wits behold, Mounted a pick-back on the old,  Much farther off, much further he,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29]]></link><description><![CDATA[For as our modern wits behold, Mounted a pick-back on the old,  Much farther off, much further he,   Rais'd on his aged Beast, could see.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There cannot be a crisis next week.
