He does not advise them to find a happy medium between the contending opinions or to average the two extremes in a compromise. On the contrary, he admonished them that "every one be fully convinced in his own mind" (Rom. 14:5), because God is able to make both stand, as both of them are serving the Lord in obedience to their individual convictions of His will... Each of us has to find personally what is the will of God for his own life, and let all others meet their responsibility to do the same... For God, by giving different commands to many, and putting them together according to His plan, shall accomplish ultimately His complete will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The deed is everything, the glory is naught. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11661]]></link><description><![CDATA[The deed is everything, the glory is naught.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That just gives [Jamestown] confidence.

In the beginning, John the Baptist had taught his disciples to expect from Christ the baptism -- not of water only, as in his baptism -- but of the Spirit. Before His death, Jesus had sought to fill His disciples' minds with the expectation of this gift... And that Spirit had come in sensible power upon them some ten days after Jesus disappeared for the last time from their eyes... And this Spirit was the Spirit of God, but also, and therefore, the Spirit of Jesus. Jesus was not then merely a past example, or a remote Lord, but an inward presence and power. A mere example in past history becomes in experience a feebler and feebler power... But the example of Jesus was something much more than a memory. For He who had taught them in the past how to live was alive in the heavenly places and was working within them by His Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taste cannot be controlled by law. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58653]]></link><description><![CDATA[Taste cannot be controlled by law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58653</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you - Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, dance like no-one is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11017]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you - Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, dance like no-one is watching, screw like it's being filmed, and drink like a true Irishman]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice and Judgment are thy throne  Yet wondrous is thy grace; While truth and mercy joined in one,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6604]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice and Judgment are thy throne  Yet wondrous is thy grace; While truth and mercy joined in one,  Invite us near thy face.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6604</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we're a decent basketball team.
