But men destroy it in the form of exegesis: they destroy it in the way they deal with it. They destroy it by not reading it as written in normal, literary form, by ignoring its historical-grammatical exegesis, by changing the Bible's own perspective of itself as propositional revelation in space and time, in history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6357</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great necessities call out great virtues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28293]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great necessities call out great virtues.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28293</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13438]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13438</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The society of women is the element of good manners. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26350]]></link><description><![CDATA[The society of women is the element of good manners.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A guy ran a red light like at 2AM, got home fine, no police saw him or anything like that. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17221]]></link><description><![CDATA[A guy ran a red light like at 2AM, got home fine, no police saw him or anything like that.

His agony was His entrance into the last, eternal terrors of the lost soul, into the real horrors of that dreadful, eternal death which man unredeemed must have died into when he left this world. We are therefore not to consider our Lord's death upon the Cross as only the death of that mortal body which was nailed to it, but we are to look upon Him with wounded hearts, as being fixed and fastened in the state of that twofold death, which was due to the fallen nature, out of which He could not come till He could say, "It is finished; Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7067</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is the delusion that one woman differs from another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25867]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is the delusion that one woman differs from another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am going to fight capitalism even if it kills me.
