They now knew him no more by sight and after the flesh; they had His Spirit. And this "having" is both a real possession and a foretaste, an earnest of what is in store...   The Spirit assures us that we are heirs of a kingdom yet to be revealed (Rom. 8:17). The Spirit wars in us against the flesh (Gal. 5:17) and gives us assurance that even our mortal bodies shall be quickened (Rom. 8:11). Meanwhile the very mark of the Spirit's presence is that we groan waiting for our adoption (Rom. 8:23) and hoping for that which we do not yet see (Rom. 8:24,25).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is so little difference between husbands you might as well keep the first. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20196]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is so little difference between husbands you might as well keep the first.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20196</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[desires are dreams,if they are not transformed into deeds.. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/398]]></link><description><![CDATA[desires are dreams,if they are not transformed into deeds..]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today, music heralds... the establishment of a society of repetition in which nothing will happen anymore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36923]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today, music heralds... the establishment of a society of repetition in which nothing will happen anymore.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36923</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love, well thou know'st no partnership allows, Cupid averse rejects divided vows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50945]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love, well thou know'st no partnership allows, Cupid averse rejects divided vows.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50945</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, the little more, and how much it is! And the little less, and what worlds away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47876]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, the little more, and how much it is! And the little less, and what worlds away.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47876</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Instead of dirt and poison, we have rather chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax, thus furnishing mankind ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58493]]></link><description><![CDATA[Instead of dirt and poison, we have rather chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax, thus furnishing mankind with the two noblest of things, which are sweetness and light.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pride is innate in beauty, and haughtiness is the companion of the fair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50755]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pride is innate in beauty, and haughtiness is the companion of the fair.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you pinch the sea of its liberty, though it be walls of stone or brass, it will beat them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24687]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you pinch the sea of its liberty, though it be walls of stone or brass, it will beat them down.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of fight or fly, This choice is left ye, to resist or die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6068]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of fight or fly, This choice is left ye, to resist or die.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859 I love my God, but with no love of mine  For I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8133]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859 I love my God, but with no love of mine  For I have none to give; I love Thee, Lord, but all that love is Thine,  For by Thy life I live.
