It was unkind to speak to men like this, for such a cheap offer could only leave them bewildered and tempt them from the way to which they had been called by Christ. Having laid hold on cheap grace, they were barred forever from the knowledge of costly grace. Deceived and weakened, men felt that they were strong now that they were in possession of this cheap grace -- whereas they had in fact lost the power to live the life of discipleship and obedience. The word of cheap grace has been the ruin of more Christians than any commandment of works.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people wish to be deceived; let them be deceived. [Lat., Populus vult decipi; decipiatur.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11521]]></link><description><![CDATA[The people wish to be deceived; let them be deceived. [Lat., Populus vult decipi; decipiatur.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The perfection of His relation to us swallows up all our imperfections, all our defeats, all our evils; for our ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8212]]></link><description><![CDATA[The perfection of His relation to us swallows up all our imperfections, all our defeats, all our evils; for our childhood is born of His fatherhood. That man is perfect in faith who can come to God in the utter dearth of his feelings and his desires, without a glow or an aspiration, with the weight of low thoughts, failures, neglects, and wandering forgetfulness, and say to Him, "Thou art my refuge, because Thou art my home". Such a faith will not lead to presumption. The man who can pray such a prayer will know better than another that God is not mocked; that He is not a man that He should repent; that tears and entreaties will not work on Him to the breach of one of His laws; that for God to give a man, because he asked for it, that which was not in harmony with His laws of truth and right, would be to damn him -- to cast him into the outer darkness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8212</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without adventure civilization is in full decay. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/671]]></link><description><![CDATA[Without adventure civilization is in full decay.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought Pat (Connolly) threw well for us, but you can't win games fielding the way we did.
