Do they not set forth the covenant of grace? The doctrine of justification by faith -- does not Paul in his Epistle to the Romans prove it from Genesis and from the Psalms? Where is the doctrine of substitution and the vicarious sufferings of the messiah set forth more clearly than in Leviticus and in the 53rd of Isaiah? The term "Old Testament" leads people to fancy it is an antiquated book; whereas, in many respects, it is newer than the New Testament, referring more fully to the age of glory and blessedness on the earth which is still before us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The weak can never forgive.

That phrase represents Paul's "ecclesia of God". It is a community of loving persons, who bear one another's burdens, who seek to build up one another in love, who "have the same thoughts in relation to one another that they have in their communion with Christ". It is all this because it is the living embodiment of Christ's own Spirit. This is a high and mystical doctrine, but a doctrine which has no meaning apart from loving fellowship in real life. A company of people who celebrate a solemn sacrament of Christ's Body and Blood, and all the time are moved by selfish passions -- rivalry, competition, mutual contempt -- is not for Paul a Church or Divine Commonwealth at all, no matter how lofty their faith or how deep their mystical experience; for all these things may "puff up"; love alone "builds up". In the very act, therefore, of attaining its liberty to exist, the Divine Commonwealth has transcended the great divisions of men. In principle, it has transcended them all, and by seriously living out that which its association means, it is on the way to comprehending the whole race. Short of that its development can never stop. This is the revealing of the sons of God for which the whole creation is waiting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Self-defense is the clearest of all laws, and for this reason: lawyers didn't make it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24365]]></link><description><![CDATA[Self-defense is the clearest of all laws, and for this reason: lawyers didn't make it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Benedict of Nursia, Father of Western Monasticism, c.550  It might help us in our thinking if we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8261]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Benedict of Nursia, Father of Western Monasticism, c.550  It might help us in our thinking if we drew a distinction between preaching, which the New Testament talks about as a continuing activity in society at large, and sermonising, which we have made into a special activity in the church premises... A great many people sermonising in our churches today would be better off and of greater service if they absolved themselves from the bondage and disciplines of the pulpit and came down among their congregations, teaching informally on sounder educational principles. After all, the vital matter in the ministry of the Word is not that a clergyman delivers himself of a discourse but that the people to whom he ministers end up being taught something. The tragedy is that the professional clergy have been trained to sermonise and they seem overwhelmed with fears and a sense of insecurity when they contemplate other methods. A further problem, of course, is that most of our churches contain a significant number of people who become emotionally disturbed at any departure from what they have always done in the past. To them, the sermon is part of their Christianity -- even if it bores them stiff!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Man's ultimate destiny is to become one with the Divine Power which governs and sustains the creation and its creatures. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12094]]></link><description><![CDATA[Man's ultimate destiny is to become one with the Divine Power which governs and sustains the creation and its creatures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only great minds can afford a simple style. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15327]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only great minds can afford a simple style.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65218]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But through the heart Should Jealousy its venom once diffuse,  'Tis then delightful misery no more,   But ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23174]]></link><description><![CDATA[But through the heart Should Jealousy its venom once diffuse,  'Tis then delightful misery no more,   But agony unmix'd, incessant gall,    Corroding every thought, and blasting all     Love's paradise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23174</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have been coming to Los Angeles since 1975 to perform. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34493]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have been coming to Los Angeles since 1975 to perform.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The total number of eligible voters is 15.5 million, ... and we expect the turn-out to reach 11 or 12 ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34838]]></link><description><![CDATA[The total number of eligible voters is 15.5 million, ... and we expect the turn-out to reach 11 or 12 million.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are used as they use others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26297]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men are used as they use others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22847]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22847</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The leader can never close the gap between himself and the group.
