In that very chapter [Romans 7] where he asserts most strongly our inability to keep the moral law he also asserts most confidently that we perceive the Law's goodness and rejoice in it according to the inward man. Our righteousness may be filthy and ragged; but Christianity gives us no ground for holding that our perceptions of right are in the same condition. They may, no doubt, be impaired; but there is a difference between imperfect sight and blindness. A theology which goes about to represent our practical reason as radically unsound is heading for disaster. If we once admit that what God means by "goodness" is sheerly different from what we judge to be good, there is no difference left between pure religion and devil worship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All in the Downs are fleet was moor'd. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44020]]></link><description><![CDATA[All in the Downs are fleet was moor'd.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This proposal here will send us back to the drawing board. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34019]]></link><description><![CDATA[This proposal here will send us back to the drawing board.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our lives improve only when we take chances - and the first and most difficult risk we can take is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our lives improve only when we take chances - and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2301]]></link><description><![CDATA[We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2301</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fate of a nation has often depended on the food or bad digestion of a prime minister. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19340]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fate of a nation has often depended on the food or bad digestion of a prime minister.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19340</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have to look at our own inertia, insecurities, self-hate, fear that, in truth, we have nothing valuable to say. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2240]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have to look at our own inertia, insecurities, self-hate, fear that, in truth, we have nothing valuable to say.

They never fail to help widows; they save orphans from those who would hurt them. If a man has something, he gives freely to the man who has nothing. If they see a stranger, Christians take him home and are happy, as though he were a real brother. They don't consider themselves brothers in the usual sense, but brothers instead through the Spirit, in God. And if they hear that one of them is in jail, or persecuted for professing the name of their redeemer, they all give him what he needs -- if it is possible, they bail him out. If one of them is poor and there isn't enough food to go around, they fast several days to give him the food he needs... This is really a new kind of person. There is something divine in them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8437</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This huge middle class has a lot of disposable income.
