But depend upon it, they do not by adding these words, or any words, bring it about that their prayers should be in the name of Christ. To pray in the name of Christ means to pray in such a way as represents Christ. The representative always must speak in the spirit and meaning of those for whom he speaks. If Christ is our representative, that must be because He speaks our wishes, or what we ought to make our wishes; and if we are to pray in the name of Christ, that means that we are, however far off, expressing His wishes and intentions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8373</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Josephine Butler, Social Reformer, 1906 Commemoration of Apolo Kivebulaya, Priest, Evangelist, 1933  [Christ] tells us plainly, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6638]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Josephine Butler, Social Reformer, 1906 Commemoration of Apolo Kivebulaya, Priest, Evangelist, 1933  [Christ] tells us plainly, and without any qualifications, that we are involved in a war in which there is no room for neutrals. Yet people attempt to evade His statement. Generally speaking, these are the very people who are the quickest in laying the blame upon God for all the sorrow and sin in the world. They argue that He could prevent it. They excuse their own do-nothing attitude by making of evil's apparent predominance a ground for doubt of His loving kindness. It never seems to occur to them to look for the cause in mankind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To understand is to perceive patterns. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2038]]></link><description><![CDATA[To understand is to perceive patterns.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24705]]></link><description><![CDATA[I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24705</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing can bring a real sense of security into the home except true love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65025]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing can bring a real sense of security into the home except true love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the opinion of some that crops could be grown on the moon; which raises the fear that it may ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45004]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's the opinion of some that crops could be grown on the moon; which raises the fear that it may not be long before we're paying somebody not to.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45004</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tide rises, the tide falls, The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;  . . . .   The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59266]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tide rises, the tide falls, The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;  . . . .   The little waves, with their soft, white hands,    Efface the footprints in the sands,     And the tide rises, the tide falls.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[is equivalent to eating garbage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39904]]></link><description><![CDATA[is equivalent to eating garbage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Indeed heresies are themselves instigated by philosophy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Indeed heresies are themselves instigated by philosophy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do you ne'er think what wondrous beings these? Do you ne'er think who made them, and who taught  The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4239]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do you ne'er think what wondrous beings these? Do you ne'er think who made them, and who taught  The dialect they speak, where melodies   Alone are the interpreters of thought?    Whose household words are songs in many keys,     Sweeter than instrument of man e'er caught!   - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4239</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fame means millions of people have the wrong idea of who you are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62447]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fame means millions of people have the wrong idea of who you are.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no regrets in my life.
