But if we should feel entitled to throw out one part of the witness of Ephesians to Christ, why not the rest of it also: for instance, Christ's Lordship over the church and in the heart? It is unfair and scarcely honest to consider the Bible or parts of it as a cake from which we can pick out merely the raisins we happen to like. Speaking the truth in love and witnessing to the biblical Christ may imply the necessity to speak also of some very strange things.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There were a lot of players expecting a special dividend -- myself included -- and that is a bit of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38449]]></link><description><![CDATA[There were a lot of players expecting a special dividend -- myself included -- and that is a bit of a disappointment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't get mad, get even. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54114]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't get mad, get even.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A jade eates as much as a good horse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49041]]></link><description><![CDATA[A jade eates as much as a good horse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Concentrate on finding your goal, then concentrate on reaching it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22492]]></link><description><![CDATA[Concentrate on finding your goal, then concentrate on reaching it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Valour that parlies is neare yeelding. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50029]]></link><description><![CDATA[Valour that parlies is neare yeelding.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tea does our fancy aid, Repress those vapours which the head invade  And keeps that palace of the soul ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58706]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tea does our fancy aid, Repress those vapours which the head invade  And keeps that palace of the soul serene.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58706</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is so fatal to religion as indifference, which is, at least, half infidelity ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20747]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is so fatal to religion as indifference, which is, at least, half infidelity]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When individuals approach one another with deep purposes on both sides they seldom come at once to the matter which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9964]]></link><description><![CDATA[When individuals approach one another with deep purposes on both sides they seldom come at once to the matter which they have most at heart.

It is not an idea in the air but feet on the ground going God's way. It is not an exotic to be kept under glass, but a hardy plant to bear twelve months of fruits in all kinds of weather. Fidelity to duty is its root and branch. Nothing we can say to the Lord, no calling Him by great or dear names, can take the place of the plain doing of His will. We may cry out about the beauty of eating bread with Him in His kingdom, but it is wasted breath and a rootless hope unless we plow and plant in His kingdom here and now. To remember Him at His table and to forget Him at ours, is to have invested in bad securities. There is no substitute for plain, every-day goodness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot afford to hire an attorney at $200 to $300 an hour to fight over your $12,000 car and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10175]]></link><description><![CDATA[You cannot afford to hire an attorney at $200 to $300 an hour to fight over your $12,000 car and have to pay those bills.
