For instance, although there are some 200,000 "errors" among the New Testament manuscripts, these appear in only about 10,000 places, and only about one-sixtieth rise above the level of trivialities. Westcott and Hort, Ezra Abbot, Philip Schaff, and A. T. Robertson have carefully evaluated the evidence and have concluded that the New Testament text is over 99 percent pure. In the light of the fact that there are over 5,000 Greek manuscripts, some 9,000 versions and translations, the evidence for the integrity of the New Testament is beyond question.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This country cannot afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61454]]></link><description><![CDATA[This country cannot afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Francis of Assisi, Friar, Deacon, Founder of the Friars Minor, 1226   Where there is fear of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8314]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Francis of Assisi, Friar, Deacon, Founder of the Friars Minor, 1226   Where there is fear of God to keep the house, the enemy can find no way to enter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Turkey and Croatia are naturally separated topics, conditions were given for both of them, ...

To break the basic laws of justice and decency is sin indeed. Man's freedom to honor principles is the moral dimension in his nature, and sin often appears as lawlessness. But sin has its roots in something which is more than the will to break the law. The core of sin is our making ourselves the center of life, rather than accepting the holy God as the center. Lack of trust, self-love, pride -- these are three ways in which Christians have expressed the real meaning of sin. But what sin does is to make the struggle with evil meaningless. When we refuse to hold our freedom in trust and reverence for God's will, there is nothing which can make the risk of life worth the pain of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A life of ease is a difficult pursuit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22347]]></link><description><![CDATA[A life of ease is a difficult pursuit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An idea is the only level which moves the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9405]]></link><description><![CDATA[An idea is the only level which moves the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has never failed somewhere, that man cannot be great. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57074]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has never failed somewhere, that man cannot be great.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Leo the Great, Bishop of Rome, 461  Perhaps there cannot be a better way of judging of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7116]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Leo the Great, Bishop of Rome, 461  Perhaps there cannot be a better way of judging of what manner of spirit we are of, than to see whether the actions of our life are such as we may safely commend them to God in our prayers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then you yell, 'Fire!

If Abraham's migration can no longer be explained as part of a larger Amorite migratory stream from east to west, it should be noted that what has fallen by the wayside is a scholarly hypothesis, not the Biblical text. Genesis itself presents the movement from Haran to Canaan as an individual, unique act undertaken in response to a divine call -- an event, not an incident -- that inaugurates a new and decisive stage in God's plan of history. The factuality or otherwise of this Biblical evaluation lies beyond the scope of scholarly research.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Come to the edgeHe said.
