If, however, they mean that we should expect results merely by repeating the actual phrases found in the New Testament, then they are mistaken. They are making, in fact, one of the basic mistakes in verbal communication, which is to confuse words with what they describe. The gospel is something God has done, not a series of phrases describing it. Saying this does not undermine the Christian's belief in the inspiration of the Bible, for the important thing about the Bible is what it talks about, rather than the way it does the talking. If we considered that there was the same degree of essential inspiration in the way it does the talking, then we would have to insist that every Christian learn Hebrew and Greek. The mere fact that we in the Western world read translations of the scriptures is a clear admission that times and cultures have changed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Al-Ki [Indian word meaning "by and by"] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43271]]></link><description><![CDATA[Al-Ki [Indian word meaning "by and by"]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25394]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A writer should write with his eyes and a painter paint with his ears.rn ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63646]]></link><description><![CDATA[A writer should write with his eyes and a painter paint with his ears.rn]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63646</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From a security standpoint, it is easier to secure their intellectual property and their new ideas in a campus setting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42210]]></link><description><![CDATA[From a security standpoint, it is easier to secure their intellectual property and their new ideas in a campus setting than one where all their people are spread out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All my life, whenever it comes time to make a decision, I make it and forget about it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6114]]></link><description><![CDATA[All my life, whenever it comes time to make a decision, I make it and forget about it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An imitative creature is man; whoever is foremost, leads the herd. [Ger., Der Mensch ist ein nachahmendes Geschopf.  Und ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20573]]></link><description><![CDATA[An imitative creature is man; whoever is foremost, leads the herd. [Ger., Der Mensch ist ein nachahmendes Geschopf.  Und wer Vorderste ist, fuhrt die Heerde.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Glory is largely a theatrical concept.
