Failure to ask this primary question and to investigate the historical setting of Scripture have prevented many Christians from coming to a correct understanding of some parts of the Bible. Nowhere is this more true than in respect to the last book in the Bible. Here, there has been a singular lack of appreciation for the historical background of the book; the book has been interpreted as if it were primarily written for the day in which the expositor lives (which is usually thought to be the end time), rather than in terms of what it meant to the first-century Christians of the Roman province of Asia for whom it was originally written. This has resulted in all sorts of grotesque and fantastic conclusions of which the author of the Revelation and its early recipients never would have dreamed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes two to make a quarrel. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50999]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes two to make a quarrel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50999</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean.

When, through the operation of such laws, surprising events take place, [we may] cry out, ... "Such is the will of God," instead of setting ourselves to inquire whether it is the will of God to give us power to bring about or prevent such results; then our conduct is not piety but sinful laziness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He makes no friends who never made a foe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63527]]></link><description><![CDATA[He makes no friends who never made a foe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind, filling it with a steady and perpetual serenity ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5831]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind, filling it with a steady and perpetual serenity]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The endeavor to understand is the first and only basis of virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52223]]></link><description><![CDATA[The endeavor to understand is the first and only basis of virtue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52223</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A pill that the present moment is daily bread to thousands. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26697]]></link><description><![CDATA[A pill that the present moment is daily bread to thousands.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26697</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Count not fowre except you have them in a wallett. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49184]]></link><description><![CDATA[Count not fowre except you have them in a wallett.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wage hike is very hard to take away, but bonuses and profit-sharing can disappear very quickly in hard times...More ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22582]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wage hike is very hard to take away, but bonuses and profit-sharing can disappear very quickly in hard times...More people are realizing that bonuses look like raises, but really aren't.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22582</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything's been expanded from paints to plumbing to electrical. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32852]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything's been expanded from paints to plumbing to electrical.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32852</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's many an artist that comes to Nashville in hopes of doing the same thing I'm doing right now, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37319]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's many an artist that comes to Nashville in hopes of doing the same thing I'm doing right now,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Education makes people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern, but impossible to enslave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13584]]></link><description><![CDATA[Education makes people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern, but impossible to enslave.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13584</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that readeth good writers and pickes out their flowres for his own nose, is lyke a foole. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46640]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that readeth good writers and pickes out their flowres for his own nose, is lyke a foole.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46640</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you say hard things you must expect to hear them in return. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50871]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you say hard things you must expect to hear them in return.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10821]]></link><description><![CDATA[Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10821</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For every benefit you receive a tax is levied. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58674]]></link><description><![CDATA[For every benefit you receive a tax is levied.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58674</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jupiter has placed upon us two wallets.
