The persistent appeal to covetousness is fundamentally opposed to the unselfishness which was taught by Jesus Christ and by the New Testament as a whole. The attempt (which is inseparable from gambling) to make a profit out of the inevitable loss and possible suffering of others is the antithesis of that love of one's neighbour on which our Lord insisted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is not glorified in any transaction upon earth so much as in the conversion of a sinner. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29564]]></link><description><![CDATA[God is not glorified in any transaction upon earth so much as in the conversion of a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29564</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is easy to perform a good action, but not easy to acquire a settled habit of performing such actions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17861]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is easy to perform a good action, but not easy to acquire a settled habit of performing such actions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where it concerns himself, Who's angry at a slander, makes it true. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50418]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where it concerns himself, Who's angry at a slander, makes it true.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who boasts of his accomplishments will heap ridicule. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9623]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who boasts of his accomplishments will heap ridicule.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9623</guid></item></channel></rss>
