Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Airplane travel is nature's way of making you look like your passport photo. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2853]]></link><description><![CDATA[Airplane travel is nature's way of making you look like your passport photo.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Charles Williams, Spiritual Writer, 1945 I thirst, but not as once I did, The vain delights of earth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8291]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Charles Williams, Spiritual Writer, 1945 I thirst, but not as once I did, The vain delights of earth to share; Thy wounds, Emmanuel, all forbid That I should seek my pleasures there.

I want that grace that springs from Thee, That quickens all things where it flows; And makes a wretched thorn like me Bloom as the myrtle or the rose. Dear fountain of delight unknown!

But this inward work of God, though never ceasing or altering, is yet always and only hindered by the activity of our own nature and faculties, by bad men through their obedience to earthly passions and by good men through their striving to be good in their own way, by their natural strength and a multiplicity of holy labours and contrivances.
