Origen seems to have put forward a definition generally agreed upon among ecclesiastical writers when he said that it is a faculty of the reason to distinguish between good and evil, a faculty of the will to choose one or the other. Augustine does not disagree with this when he teaches that it is a faculty of the reason and the will to choose good with the assistance of grace; evil, when grace is absent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56375]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A people without history is like the wind on the buffalo grass. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51888]]></link><description><![CDATA[A people without history is like the wind on the buffalo grass.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51888</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the waves are round me breaking,As I pace the deck alone,And my eye in vain is seekingSome green leaf ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25305]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the waves are round me breaking,As I pace the deck alone,And my eye in vain is seekingSome green leaf to rest upon;What would not I give to wanderWhere my old companions dwell?Absence makes the heart grow fonder,Isle of Beauty, fare thee well! - Paradise Lost.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915  Covetousness, pride, and envy are not three different things, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6937]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915  Covetousness, pride, and envy are not three different things, but only three different names for the restless workings of one and the same will or desire. Wrath, which is a fourth birth from these three, can have no existence till one or all of these three are contradicted, or have something done to them that is contrary to their will. These four properties generate their own torment. They have no outward cause, nor any inward power of altering themselves. And therefore all self or nature must be in this state until some supernatural good comes into it, or gets a birth in it. Whilst man indeed lives among the vanities of time, his covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath may be in a tolerable state, may hold him to a mixture of peace and trouble; they may have at times their gratifications as well as their torments. But when death has put an end to the vanity of all earthly cheats, the soul that is not born again of the Supernatural Word and Spirit of God, must find itself unavoidably devoured and shut up in its own insatiable, unchangeable, self-tormenting covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hope to leave my children a sense of empathy and pity and a will to right social wrongs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13750]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hope to leave my children a sense of empathy and pity and a will to right social wrongs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our aim was always to reach a consensus to ensure a victory in the referendum. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36213]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our aim was always to reach a consensus to ensure a victory in the referendum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think Aaron got a little frustrated with Bullard keying on him and then picked up some early fouls.
