We have literally no time to sit down and ask ourselves whether so-and-so is our neighbor or not. We must get into action and obey -- we must behave like a neighbor to him. But perhaps this shocks you. Perhaps you still think you ought to think out beforehand and know what you ought to do. To that, there is only one answer. You can only know and think about it by actually doing it. It is no use asking questions; for it is only through obedience that you come to learn the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8589</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No legacy is so rich as honesty. -All 's Well that Ends Well.

He allowed himself (God allowed him) to be accounted sin by the Law. He refused to do what orthodox Jews of his day thought God had commanded them to do, (i.e.) seek to gain credit with God by keeping the Law. He lived by faith, not Law, and therefore repudiated the Law and the path of self-justification.... He stripped himself even of that claim to moral goodness which would have distinguished him from sinners. Short of becoming a sinner (and Paul shows that this idea is repudiated), how could God come closer to us sinners?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To pull the chestnuts from the fire with the cat's paw. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50668]]></link><description><![CDATA[To pull the chestnuts from the fire with the cat's paw.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Serene yet strong, majestic yet sedate, Swift without violence, without terror great. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Serene yet strong, majestic yet sedate, Swift without violence, without terror great.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But everyone is responsible for protecting children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39425]]></link><description><![CDATA[But everyone is responsible for protecting children.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39425</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[BB&T over the years largely has grown through the merger-and- acquisition process, acquiring community banks and thrifts, and that's been ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38509]]></link><description><![CDATA[BB&T over the years largely has grown through the merger-and- acquisition process, acquiring community banks and thrifts, and that's been successful on our part.
