This is a mercy for the Christian; for when does sin ever occur in the community that he must not examine and blame himself for his own unfaithfulness in prayer and intercession, his lack of brotherly service, of fraternal reproof and encouragement -- indeed, for his own personal sin and spiritual laxity, by which he has done injury to himself, the fellowship, and the brethren? Since every sin of a member burdens and indicts the whole community, the congregation rejoices, in the midst of all the pain and the burden that the brother's sin inflicts, that it has the privilege of bearing and forgiving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The presidency has made every man who occupied it, no matter how small, bigger than he was; and no matter ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48140]]></link><description><![CDATA[The presidency has made every man who occupied it, no matter how small, bigger than he was; and no matter how big, not big enough for its demands.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They said if you need to get your people out, you have to do it yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36334]]></link><description><![CDATA[They said if you need to get your people out, you have to do it yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Herostratus lives that burnt the temple of Diana; he is almost lost that built it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15093]]></link><description><![CDATA[Herostratus lives that burnt the temple of Diana; he is almost lost that built it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being No. 1, we were definitely content with that.

There is one Holy God, creator of heaven and earth. He is Lord of all life. To Him we are beholden for our life in all its meaning and its hope. Monotheism for the Christian means that anything else which is put in the place of our loyalty to God is an idol. The worship of national power, or racial prestige, or financial success, or cultural tradition, is a violation of the one truth about life, that all created things come from God. To commit life to the one true God is to refuse to have any other gods at all. Values there are in abundance, interests, plans, programs, loyalties to family and nation. But these are not gods; they do not save us; they are not holy in themselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The strangest, most generous, and proudest of all virtues is truecourage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22388]]></link><description><![CDATA[The strangest, most generous, and proudest of all virtues is truecourage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A week ago, you could sense the soul of New Orleans from the people who were still around.

It was wonderful to touch one of them and think, Perhaps the Apostle Paul or one of the martyrs touched this as they passed. But how much more wonderful is it to think that we have, for our own use, the very same sword our Lord used when the Devil attacked Him. [Brooke Foss] Westcott says "the Word of God" in Ephesians 6:17 means "a definite utterance of God". We know these "definite utterances" -- we have the same Book that He had, and we can do as He did. So let us learn the "definite utterances" that they may be ready in our minds; ready for use at the moment of need -- our sword which never grows dull and rusty, but is always keen and bright. So once more I say, let us not expect defeat but victory. Let us take fast hold and keep fast hold of our sword, and we shall win in any assault of the enemy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A successful individual typically sets his next goal somewhat but not too much above his last achievement.
