This is a disastrous illusion. Christians cannot behave as though time were unreal. God gives us time, but not an infinite amount of time. It is His purpose that the Gospel should be preached to all nations, and that all men should be brought into one family in Jesus Christ. His purpose looks to a real End, and therefore requires of us real decisions. If we misconstrue His patience, and think that there is an infinity of time for debate while we perpetuate before the world the scandal of our dismemberment of the Body of Christ, we deceive ourselves. In an issue regarding the doing of the will of God there is no final neutrality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Half the work that is done in this world is to make things appear what they are not. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46345]]></link><description><![CDATA[Half the work that is done in this world is to make things appear what they are not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. -Ziggy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46083]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses. -Ziggy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The weather-cock on the church spire, though made of iron, would soon be broken by the storm-wind if it ... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/580]]></link><description><![CDATA[The weather-cock on the church spire, though made of iron, would soon be broken by the storm-wind if it ... did not understand the noble art of turning to every wind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deep experience is never peaceful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63996]]></link><description><![CDATA[Deep experience is never peaceful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11388]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me  Weary and old with service. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51362]]></link><description><![CDATA[My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me  Weary and old with service.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Motivation is like food for the brain.
