We may conclude, then, that all the promises and predictions in Scripture relative to the future glories of the Jews and of Jerusalem, are to be understood of the Christian church, of which the Jewish church was a figure; and all that is said of feasting, and splendor, and wealth, and worldly greatness and enjoyment, is to be interpreted spiritually of the inward comfort and peace of mind, and "joy of the Holy Ghost", which is promised to sincere Christians in this life, and of the unspeakable happiness prepared for them after death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All of the troubles that some people have in life is that which they married into. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47436]]></link><description><![CDATA[All of the troubles that some people have in life is that which they married into.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47436</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was really happy that the girls didn't quit (when they got down).

The real questions refuse to be placated. They barge into your life at the times when it seems most important for them to stay away. They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often against your will. -Ingrid Bengis.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Alphege, Archbishop of Canterbury, Martyr, 1012   The higher faiths call their followers to strenuous moral effort. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7933]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Alphege, Archbishop of Canterbury, Martyr, 1012   The higher faiths call their followers to strenuous moral effort. Such effort is likely to be arduous and painful in proportion to the height of the ideal, desperate in proportion to the sensitiveness of the conscience. A morbid scrupulousness besets the morally serious soul. It is anxious and troubled, afraid of evil, haunted by the memory of failure. The best of the Pharisees tended in this direction, and no less the best of the Stoics. And so little has Christianity been understood that the popular idea of a serious Christian is modeled upon the same type of character.
