But the Devil has. The Devil knows that as long as he can control human pride it does not matter how many prayer meetings, how many services, how much devotion goes on -- he can still wrack any group of Christians, sooner or later, and frustrate God's purpose for them, and for the world.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn August 11, 1999 Feast of Clare of Assisi, Founder of the Order of Minoresses (Poor Clares), 1253 Commemoration of John Henry Newman, Priest, Teacher, Tractarian, 1890   Never... think we have a due knowledge of ourselves till we have been exposed to various kinds of temptations, and tried on every side. Integrity on one side of our character is no voucher for integrity on another. We cannot tell how we should act if brought under temptations different from those we have hitherto experienced. This thought should keep us humble. We are sinners, but we do not know how great. He alone knows who died for our sins.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you command wisely, you\'ll be obeyed cheerfully. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66737]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you command wisely, you\'ll be obeyed cheerfully.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66737</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He has nibbled at the bay.

It was because popes could and did err and because councils could and did err that Luther came to realize the supremacy of Scripture. Luther did not despise church authority, nor did he repudiate church councils as having no value. His praise of the Council of Nicaea is noteworthy. Luther and the Reformers did not mean by "Sola Scriptura" that the Bible is the only authority in the church; rather, they meant that the Bible is the only infallible authority in the church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How much easier it is to be critical than to be correct. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64833]]></link><description><![CDATA[How much easier it is to be critical than to be correct.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing fails like success. •Gerald Nachman  We must believe in luck.

For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like? •Jean Cocteau  Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world. •Lily Tomlin  The penalty for success is to be bored by the people who used to snub you. •Nancy Astor  For you to be successful, sacrifices must be made. It's better that they are made by others but failing that, you'll have to make them yourself. •Rita Mae Brown  Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside. •Mark Twain  The way to learn to do things is to do things. The way to learn a trade is to work at it. Success teaches how to succeed. Begin with the determination to succeed, and the work is half done already. •J.N. Fadenburg   Make a success of living by seeing the goal and aiming for it unswervingly. •Cecil B. Demille  I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. •Abraham Lincoln  The secret of success is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake those, you've got it made. •Groucho Marx  Americans are the only people in the world known to me whose status anxiety prompts them to advertise their college and university affiliations in the rear window of their automobiles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a tough call, but a sensible one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42403]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was a tough call, but a sensible one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42403</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A meeting between two beings who complete one another, who are made for each other, borders already, in my opinion, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26822]]></link><description><![CDATA[A meeting between two beings who complete one another, who are made for each other, borders already, in my opinion, on a miracle]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26822</guid></item></channel></rss>
