But let me tell you that herein you put an extremely difficult task upon us, in expecting that we should pour wine and oil into the wound before it be searched, and speak smooth and comfortable things to a man that is but just brought to a sense of the long course of a lewd and wicked life impenitently continued in. Alas! what comfort can we give to men in such a case? We are loth to drive them to despair; and yet we must not destroy them by presumption; pity and good nature do strongly tempt us to make the best of their case and to give them all the little hopes which with any kind of reason we can --and God knows it is but very little that we can give to such persons upon good ground, for it all depends upon the degree and sincerity of their repentance, which God only knows, and we can but guess at.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Etheldreda, Abbess of Ely, c.678   One might think that, with the Bible as the center of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7955]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Etheldreda, Abbess of Ely, c.678   One might think that, with the Bible as the center of Christianity, the unity of Christians could be easily realized. But unfortunately this has not proved true, though we can consider it fortunate indeed that, as this inability to unify proves, the letter of the Bible cannot really replace the living Christ as the center of our faith. The Bible is the expression of the life and work of God, and since life is greater than its expression, it cannot be expressed completely in any logical or theological form. Therefore, the Bible itself cannot escape being understood in many different ways. Thus we see how in the wisdom of God it is impossible in practice to make the Scriptures the end or final authority to those who live in fellowship with the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's not 'why.'

We have to find that deep contrition which is the condition of His abiding. Repentance is not a mere feeling of sorrow or contrition for an act of wrongdoing. The regret I feel when I act impatiently or speak crossly is not repentance... Repentance is contrition for what we are in our fundamental beings, that we are wrong in our deepest roots because our internal government is by Self and not by God. And it is an activity of the whole person. Unless I will to be different, the mind will not follow. True repentance brings an urge to be different, because of the sense of the incessant movement of what I am, forming, forming, forming what I shall be in the years to come.   ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  January 11, 1996 Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915   Every virtue is a form of obedience to God. Every evil word or act is a form of rebellion against Him. This may not be clear at first; but, if we think patiently, we shall find that it is true. Why were you angry? You will probably find that it was because you were not willing to accept the world as God has made it, or because you were not willing to leave it to God to deal with the people that He has made.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All places that the eye of heaven visits, Are to a wise man ports and happy havens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51499]]></link><description><![CDATA[All places that the eye of heaven visits, Are to a wise man ports and happy havens.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To have done, is to hang Quite out of fashion, like a rusty mail  In monumental mockery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51276]]></link><description><![CDATA[To have done, is to hang Quite out of fashion, like a rusty mail  In monumental mockery.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At first, the chemistry wasn't quite there.
