Therefore I do not see how it is possible in the nature of things for any revival of religion to continue long. For religion must necessarily produce both industry and frugality, and these cannot but produce riches. But as riches increase, so will pride, anger, and love of the world in all its branches. How then is it possible that Methodism, that is a religion of the heart, though it flourishes now as the green bay tree, should continue in this state? For the Methodists in every place grow diligent and frugal; consequently, they increase in goods. Hence, they proportionately increase in pride, in anger, in the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life. So, although the form of religion remains, the spirit is swiftly vanishing away. Is there no way to prevent ... this continual decay of pure religion?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62140]]></link><description><![CDATA[Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity.
