It is because the word "inerrant" makes these methodological points about handling the Bible, ruling out in advance the use of mental procedures that can only lead to reduced and distorted versions of Christianity, that it is so valuable and, I think, so much valued by those who embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6263</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46967]]></link><description><![CDATA[Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Procrastination is the thief of time: Year after year it steals, till all are fled, And to the mercies of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48297]]></link><description><![CDATA[Procrastination is the thief of time: Year after year it steals, till all are fled, And to the mercies of a moment leaves The vast concerns of an eternal scene]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Nicholas, Bishop of Myra, c.326    If I now want to add something of my own ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7000]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Nicholas, Bishop of Myra, c.326    If I now want to add something of my own (i.e., inner assurances) to this faith, if this great and glorious faith is defective and saves me not till I can add my own sense and my own feeling to it at such a time or place, is not this saying in the plainest manner that faith alone cannot justify me? ...

In our eyes, the job is not yet done; and such an action would be, though we would not put it so, an interference. But suppose our hope rests in the purpose of God: then we safely leave the timing of the earthly experiment to Him. Meanwhile, we do what we were told to do -- to be alert and to work and pray for the spread of His Kingdom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here I stand the perpetrator of the crime--turn then your sword on me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51804]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here I stand the perpetrator of the crime--turn then your sword on me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every inordinate cup is unblessed, and the ingredient is a devil. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51441]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every inordinate cup is unblessed, and the ingredient is a devil.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beware of meat twice boiled, and an old foe reconciled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11056]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beware of meat twice boiled, and an old foe reconciled.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11056</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All government, indeed every human benefit and enjoyment, every virtue, and every prudent act, is founded on compromise and barter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9300]]></link><description><![CDATA[All government, indeed every human benefit and enjoyment, every virtue, and every prudent act, is founded on compromise and barter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thanks to Tony, he didn't give us much time to think about that shot.
