Yet there was a case, in which David found an ease, to fall into the hands of God, to scape the hands of men: When God's hand is bent to strike, it is a fearefull thing, to fall into the hands of the living God; but to fall out of the hands of the living God, is a horror beyond our expression, beyond our imagination.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That would be an unbelievable, fantastic run for both teams [to win titles], but I think it would be unbelievable ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32698]]></link><description><![CDATA[That would be an unbelievable, fantastic run for both teams [to win titles], but I think it would be unbelievable for the fans.

The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus. The greatest psychological insight, ability, and experience cannot grasp this one thing: what sin is. Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Christ is the Master; the Scriptures are only the servant.
