But, strictly speaking, the great thing to see is that God has accepted Christ. He took our sins upon Himself, died to make propitiation (the sacrifice which removed the anger of God) for them. But God raised Him from the dead and has taken Him up to glory. God has accepted Christ in token of His perfect satisfaction in His work. Believing this, the soul enters into peace. I simply rest in God’s thoughts about His son.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/633</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The public works subcommittee discussed using the sidewalk fund moneys for Echo Lake and connect those pieces of existing sidewalk ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34346]]></link><description><![CDATA[The public works subcommittee discussed using the sidewalk fund moneys for Echo Lake and connect those pieces of existing sidewalk as best we can, ...

I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them the revelation of God to men was made, or appeared to be made, less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the fault of youth that it cannot restrain its own impetuosity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51165]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the fault of youth that it cannot restrain its own impetuosity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51165</guid></item></channel></rss>
