His agony was His entrance into the last, eternal terrors of the lost soul, into the real horrors of that dreadful, eternal death which man unredeemed must have died into when he left this world. We are therefore not to consider our Lord's death upon the Cross as only the death of that mortal body which was nailed to it, but we are to look upon Him with wounded hearts, as being fixed and fastened in the state of that twofold death, which was due to the fallen nature, out of which He could not come till He could say, "It is finished; Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When war is raging the laws are dumb. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48892]]></link><description><![CDATA[When war is raging the laws are dumb.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.

We must affirm both the mystery and God. The paradox remained, but now, at least, Job knew that it belonged there -- that it is built into the moral and physical orders, and into the very nature of God as He has permitted us humans to perceive Him. In a world where the universal principle is cause/effect, the book of Job reminds us that the principle is a reflection of the mysterious, self-revealing God. It is subsumed under Him, however, and He cannot be subsumed under it. The God-speeches remind us that a Person, not a principle, is Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6652</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Famed For every branch of every science known. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48732]]></link><description><![CDATA[Famed For every branch of every science known.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48732</guid></item></channel></rss>
