Forgiveness is God's idea, God's desire; and it is He who appoints both the Judge and the Counsel for the Defense. It was He who inaugurated the priestly work, that men might receive His cleansing and turn to the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the world. God has provided for himself a Lamb. It is He who sends His Son to be our Elder Brother, and to incorporate us as adopted sons into the circle of His Fatherly love. So then it is the voice of His beloved Son which is most clearly heard by the Father in heaven. In that voice of intercession, all the voices of intercession are contained and heard. The Son is talking to the Father about us, and what He says is not Please but Yes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For as our modern wits behold, Mounted a pick-back on the old,  Much farther off, much further he,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29]]></link><description><![CDATA[For as our modern wits behold, Mounted a pick-back on the old,  Much farther off, much further he,   Rais'd on his aged Beast, could see.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It obviously makes a statement about status and the ability to afford it but I think it's also a spontaneous, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30544]]></link><description><![CDATA[It obviously makes a statement about status and the ability to afford it but I think it's also a spontaneous, celebratory thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to play than do nothing ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46674]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to play than do nothing]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46674</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We tell the public which way the cat is jumping.
