That the Christian religion is only a declaration of God's goodwill to us, without any expectation of duty from us -- this is an error which one could hardly think could ever enter into any who have the liberty to read the Bible and attend to what they read and find there. The three great promises of the gospel are all very expressly contained in our Saviour's first sermon upon the mount. There we find the promise of blessedness often repeated but never absolutely made, but upon certain conditions, plainly required on our part, as repentance, righteousness, humility, mercy, peaceableness, meekness, patience. Forgiveness of sins is likewise promised, but only to those who make a penitent acknowledgement of them and ask forgiveness for them., and are ready to grant that forgiveness to others which they beg of God for themselves. The gift of God's Holy Spirit is likewise promised, but it is upon condition of our earnest and importunate prayer to God. The gospel is everywhere full of precepts enjoining duty and obedience upon our part, as well as of promises on God's part, assuring blessings to us -- nay, full of terrible threatenings also if we disobey the precepts of the gospel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Mark the Evangelist  To love another as oneself is only the halfway house to Heaven, though it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7803]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Mark the Evangelist  To love another as oneself is only the halfway house to Heaven, though it seems as far as it was prudent to bid man go. The "greater love than this" of which our Lord speaks, though He does not command it, is to give oneself for one's friends. And when one does this, or is ready to do this, prayer even for "us" seems too selfish -- and it is unnecessary, for we then possess all that God Himself can give us. The easy renunciation of self for the Beloved becomes the very breath of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best theology is rather a divine life than a divine knowledge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59088]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best theology is rather a divine life than a divine knowledge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59088</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old Peter Grimes made fishing his employ; His wife he cabined with him and his boy,  And seemed that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16106]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old Peter Grimes made fishing his employ; His wife he cabined with him and his boy,  And seemed that life laborious to enjoy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16106</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody will laugh long who deals much with opium: its pleasures even are of a grave and solemn complexion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45021]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody will laugh long who deals much with opium: its pleasures even are of a grave and solemn complexion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16810]]></link><description><![CDATA[To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any other station or capacity in social life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who love only once in their lives are. . . shallow people.
