Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Down to Gehenna or up to the throne, He travels the fastest who travel alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Down to Gehenna or up to the throne, He travels the fastest who travel alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The vote means nothing to women.

Repeatedly, the light has shone forth in the darkness, held aloft by hands that perished in the destruction of the institution that failed. Christians tend to defend the institution of their own creation with tenacity. It is institutional Christianity that has often shackled the Church... Many of the missionary institutions of the Church are expendable. They should always be treated as expendable.  ... Leonard M. Outerbridge, The Lost Churches of China July 24, 1996 Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471  Men stand much upon the title of 'orthodox', by which is usually understood, not believing the doctrine of Christ or His apostles, but such opinions as are in vogue among such a party, such systems of divinity as have been compiled in haste by those whom we have in admiration; and whatever is not consonant to these little bodies of divinity, tho' possibly it agree well enough with the Word of God, is error and heresy; and whoever maintains it can hardly pass for a Christian among some angry and perverse people. I do not intend to plead for any error, but I would not have Christianity chiefly measured by matters of opinion. I know no such error and heresy as a wicked life... Of the two, I have more hopes of him that denies the divinity of Christ and lives otherwise soberly and righteously and godly in the world, than of the man who owns Christ to be the Son of God and lives like a child of the devil.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6899</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When holy and devout religious men Are at their beads, 'tis much to draw them thence,  So sweet is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9925]]></link><description><![CDATA[When holy and devout religious men Are at their beads, 'tis much to draw them thence,  So sweet is zealous contemplation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whose talk is of bullocks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58603]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whose talk is of bullocks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This material is relevant to debates we as Americans are having about the war in Iraq and intelligence reform, ... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42188]]></link><description><![CDATA[This material is relevant to debates we as Americans are having about the war in Iraq and intelligence reform, ...
