Yet they like to be considered as Christians, and listen willingly to the hypocrites who preach that our righteousness is only that God holds us to be righteous, even if we are bad people, and that our righteousness is without us and not in us, for, according to such teaching, they can be counted as holy people. Woe to those who preach that men of sinful walk can not be considered pious; most are furious when they hear this, as we see and experience, and would like all such preachers to be driven away or even killed; but where that cannot be done, they strengthen their hypocrite preachers with praise, comfort, presents and protection, so that they may go on happily and give no place to the truth, however clear it may be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Despite a voluminous and often fervent literature on "income distribution," the cold fact is that most income is not distributed: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48477]]></link><description><![CDATA[Despite a voluminous and often fervent literature on "income distribution," the cold fact is that most income is not distributed: It is earned.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[MGM is very deliberate.

The two ideas of Free-will and Divine Sovereignty can not be reconciled in our own minds, but that does not prevent them from being reconciled in God's mind. We measure Him by our own intellectual standard if we think otherwise. And so our solution of the problem of Free-will and of the problems of history and of individual salvation must finally lie in the full acceptance and realisation of what is implied by the infinity and the omniscience of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6891</guid></item></channel></rss>
