Here lies the ground of the great efficacy of prayer, which when it is the prayer of the heart, the prayer of faith, has a kindling and creating power, and forms and transforms the soul into everything that the desire reaches after: it has the key to the Kingdom of Heaven and unlocks all its treasures; it opens, extends and moves that in us which has its being and motion in and with the divine nature. and so it brings us into real union and Communion with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man would follow, today, the teachings of the Old Testament, he would be a criminal.

All too often, evangelicals are paper people. If we do not preach these things, talk about them to each other, and teach them carefully from the pulpit and in the Christian classroom, we cannot expect Christians so to act. This has always been important, but it is especially so today because we are surrounded by a world in which personality is increasingly eroded. If we, who have become God's children, do not show Him to be personal in our lives, then in practice we are denying His existence, and He cannot be anything but grieved.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6331</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17279]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cheerfulness removes the rust from the mind, lubricates our inward machinery, and enables us to do our work with fewer ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5856]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cheerfulness removes the rust from the mind, lubricates our inward machinery, and enables us to do our work with fewer creaks and ;groans.
