He allowed himself (God allowed him) to be accounted sin by the Law. He refused to do what orthodox Jews of his day thought God had commanded them to do, (i.e.) seek to gain credit with God by keeping the Law. He lived by faith, not Law, and therefore repudiated the Law and the path of self-justification.... He stripped himself even of that claim to moral goodness which would have distinguished him from sinners. Short of becoming a sinner (and Paul shows that this idea is repudiated), how could God come closer to us sinners?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would rather lie on a sofa than sweep beneath it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19919]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would rather lie on a sofa than sweep beneath it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19919</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have scorched the snake, not killed it. She'll close and be herself, whilst our poor malice  Remains in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14933]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have scorched the snake, not killed it. She'll close and be herself, whilst our poor malice  Remains in danger of her former tooth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No life is so hard that you can't make it easier by the way you take it. -Ellen Glasgow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46067]]></link><description><![CDATA[No life is so hard that you can't make it easier by the way you take it. -Ellen Glasgow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is harder to be poor without complaining than to be rich without boasting ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9249]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is harder to be poor without complaining than to be rich without boasting]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I from the jaws of a gardener's bitch Snatched this bone and then leapt the ditch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50416]]></link><description><![CDATA[I from the jaws of a gardener's bitch Snatched this bone and then leapt the ditch.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many Continentals think life is a game; the English think cricket is a game ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10632]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many Continentals think life is a game; the English think cricket is a game]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What harm in drinking can there be, Since punch and life so well agree? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12990]]></link><description><![CDATA[What harm in drinking can there be, Since punch and life so well agree?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12990</guid></item></channel></rss>
