Righteousness comes back when man by faith is brought to walk with God again, and to give Him His true place by acting or being acted upon in all things according to His will. Anything, therefore, not of faith is sin. And all such sin is bondage. Self-will is bondage, for self-will or independence of God means dependence on a creature; and we cannot be dependent on a creature, be it what it may, without (more or less) becoming subject to it. What has not been given up for money, or for some creature's love? But who has ever thus served the creature more than the Creator without waking at last to feel he is a bondman? I say nothing of the worse bondage which comes from our self-will, in the indulgence of our own thoughts, or passions, or affections. Even the very energies of faith, while, as yet unchastened, it acts from self, ... may only bring forth more bondage... Who but God can set men free? And He sets them free as they walk with Him. All independence of Him is darkness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel the coast is getting something rammed down the throat by the rest of the state and in particular ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28696]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel the coast is getting something rammed down the throat by the rest of the state and in particular by Haley Barbour who used to be a lobbyist for the petroleum industry.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24265]]></link><description><![CDATA[The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not necessary to hope in order to understand, nor to succeed in order to persevere. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22261]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not necessary to hope in order to understand, nor to succeed in order to persevere.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If, as I can't help suspecting, the dead also feel the pains of separation (and this may be one of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4155]]></link><description><![CDATA[If, as I can't help suspecting, the dead also feel the pains of separation (and this may be one of their purgatorial sufferings), then for both lovers, and for all pairs of lovers without exception, bereavement is a universal and integral part of our experience of love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4155</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22702]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22702</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like a wind scattering dandelion spores or maple samaras Lind the NASA shuttle which when it exploded sent people and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like a wind scattering dandelion spores or maple samaras Lind the NASA shuttle which when it exploded sent people and thousands of captive lab animals over 6 states the innocent little nameless Mad Cow* was decimated after drawn and quartered and sent by porters to 4 states' quarters.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Historically that (bass) number is way, way down.

The "joy" that was set before Jesus was, we feel, knowing of the riches which would come to his brethren out of his death. In short, we are his joy, set before him when on the cross. As we have seen, only as the circle of the love of Jesus becomes world wide and as big as history will it be complete.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is no time for ease and comfort.
