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[Happy the People whose Annals are blank in History-Books. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19324]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happy the People whose Annals are blank in History-Books.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Germany must have her place in the sun. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17394]]></link><description><![CDATA[Germany must have her place in the sun.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tenacity is a certain quality of the human hand in its relation to the coin of the realm.
