Friedrich von Hügel August 9, 2000 Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   When evangelicals call the Bible "inerrant", part at least of their meaning is this: that, in exegesis and exposition of Scripture and in building up our biblical theology from the fruits of our Bible study, we may not (1) deny, disregard, or arbitrarily relativize, anything that the biblical writers teach, nor (2) discount any of the practical implications for worship and service that their teaching carries, nor (3) cut the knot of any problem of Bible harmony, factual or theological, by allowing ourselves to assume that the inspired writers were not necessarily consistent either with themselves or with each other. It is because the word "inerrant" makes these methodological points about handling the Bible, ruling out in advance the use of mental procedures that can only lead to reduced and distorted versions of Christianity, that it is so valuable and, I think, so much valued by those who embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This tyrant, whole sole name blisters our tongues, Was once thought honest; you have loved him well;  He hath ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59974]]></link><description><![CDATA[This tyrant, whole sole name blisters our tongues, Was once thought honest; you have loved him well;  He hath not touched you yet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16508]]></link><description><![CDATA[Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[CHRISTMAS DAY Jesus came! - and came for me.
