In that very chapter [Romans 7] where he asserts most strongly our inability to keep the moral law he also asserts most confidently that we perceive the Law's goodness and rejoice in it according to the inward man. Our righteousness may be filthy and ragged; but Christianity gives us no ground for holding that our perceptions of right are in the same condition. They may, no doubt, be impaired; but there is a difference between imperfect sight and blindness. A theology which goes about to represent our practical reason as radically unsound is heading for disaster. If we once admit that what God means by "goodness" is sheerly different from what we judge to be good, there is no difference left between pure religion and devil worship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't wanna get old and stagnant and hang around. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35704]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't wanna get old and stagnant and hang around.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If blue collar jobs are leavingand white collar jobs are outsourcedwhat color collar jobs are left? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10681]]></link><description><![CDATA[If blue collar jobs are leavingand white collar jobs are outsourcedwhat color collar jobs are left?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He prayeth well who loveth well Both man and bird and beast. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48054]]></link><description><![CDATA[He prayeth well who loveth well Both man and bird and beast.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See the gold sunshine patching, And streaming and streaking across  The gray-green oaks; and catching,   By its ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58281]]></link><description><![CDATA[See the gold sunshine patching, And streaming and streaking across  The gray-green oaks; and catching,   By its soft brown beard, the moss.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man who has seen the rising moon break out of the clouds at midnight has been present like an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44505]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man who has seen the rising moon break out of the clouds at midnight has been present like an archangel at the creation of light and of the world]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shame and guilt are noble emotions essential in the maintenance of civilized society, and vital for the development of some ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26861]]></link><description><![CDATA[Shame and guilt are noble emotions essential in the maintenance of civilized society, and vital for the development of some of the most refined and elegant qualities of human potential.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man is a hero to his valet. [Fr., Il n'y a pas de grand homme pour son valet-de-chambre.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19225]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man is a hero to his valet. [Fr., Il n'y a pas de grand homme pour son valet-de-chambre.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Frank is definitely not a keeping-the-seat-warm kind of figure.
