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[If I had obeyed God, as I have obeyed him, He would not have punished me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62636]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I had obeyed God, as I have obeyed him, He would not have punished me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inventory is definitely moving up there, but we're still in the middle of a seller's market.

It is inconceivable that the things that are of utmost importance to each individual should not be spoken by one to another. It is unchristian consciously to deprive another of the one decisive service we can render to him...   The more we learn to allow others to speak the Word to us, to accept humbly and gratefully even severe reproaches and admonitions, the more free and objective will we be in speaking ourselves. The humble person will stick to truth and love. He will stick to the Word of God and let it lead him to his brother...   Reproof is unavoidable. God's Word demands it when a brother falls into open sin. Where defection from God's Word in doctrine or life imperils the fellowship... the word of admonition and rebuke must be ventured. Nothing can be more cruel than the tenderness that consigns another to his sin. Nothing can be more compassionate than the severe rebuke that calls a brother back from the path of sin. It is a ministry of mercy, an ultimate offer of genuine fellowship, when we allow nothing but God's Word to stand between us, judging and succoring.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where the mind is past hope, the heart is past shame. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26841]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where the mind is past hope, the heart is past shame.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14600]]></link><description><![CDATA[You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best education of all.
