Faith is not understood when [it is] only demonstrated by life. The more sanctified a life without the verbal witness, the greater the danger of the Christian's goodness getting in the way. Should a person by the grace of God become easier to live with, he doesn't need to call attention to it: it will speak for itself. He can instead seek to balance the reverse effect of the good image by occasionally speaking of the unfavorable realities within, those parts that are still changing. In this way, his external behavior by contrast can point to the power of God, rather than to the effort of man. When we decrease, He can increase, but not until.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Because they know not the forces of nature, and in order that they may have comrades in their ignorance, they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52082]]></link><description><![CDATA[Because they know not the forces of nature, and in order that they may have comrades in their ignorance, they suffer not that others should search out anything, and would have us believe like rustics and ask no reason...But we ask in all things a reason must be sought.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52082</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With IPTV dramatically changing the entertainment market and helping to spur demand for broadband, IPTV products will be one of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38334]]></link><description><![CDATA[With IPTV dramatically changing the entertainment market and helping to spur demand for broadband, IPTV products will be one of the hottest items on the Telecom NEXT exhibit floor.

But Jesus did believe in Him, was sure He is alive and abroad in the world; that, therefore, anything may happen any hour. And thus to Him any smallest incident was a magic casement opening upon who could tell what possibilities. A fisherman offers Him a crude, inchoate half-faith, and with that He is sure that He can found a world-wide Church that will defy the powers of evil, aye, and grind them into nothingness at last: a dying brigand, paying the just penalties of his crimes, gropes towards Him in the darkness with the vague hands of a blind man, and, founding upon that, Christ dies, quite sure that He has won: two or three Gentiles seek an interview with Him, and He sees a whole teeming world of men and women being saved.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7808</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with life is that there are so many beautiful women and so little time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24985]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with life is that there are so many beautiful women and so little time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51258]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52226]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it is. - Strong Opinions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52226</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sickness seizes the body from bad ventilation. [Lat., Aere non certo corpora languor habet.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12490]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sickness seizes the body from bad ventilation. [Lat., Aere non certo corpora languor habet.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one expects the goalkeeper to make the save. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37684]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one expects the goalkeeper to make the save.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the last ten years we have come to realize humans are more like worms than we ever imagined. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30741]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the last ten years we have come to realize humans are more like worms than we ever imagined.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See one promontory, one mountain, one sea, one river and see all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43831]]></link><description><![CDATA[See one promontory, one mountain, one sea, one river and see all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pure logic is the ruin of the spirit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57381]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pure logic is the ruin of the spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57381</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's just a great stock to own here, ...
