The only evidence of election is therefore vocation, and the only evidence of vocation, is holiness of heart and life, for we are called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Compare again Romans 8:29, where believers are said to be "predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son." To this they are effectually called. They are made like Christ. Fellowship includes union and communion. We are called to be partakers of Christ; partakers of his life, as members of his body; and herefore, partakers of his character, of his sufferings here and of his glory hereafter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6327</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great literature is simply language charged with meaning to the utmost possible degree. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25318]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great literature is simply language charged with meaning to the utmost possible degree.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hasty conclusions lead to speedy repentance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hasty conclusions lead to speedy repentance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The path of sound credence is through the thick forest of skepticism. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56494]]></link><description><![CDATA[The path of sound credence is through the thick forest of skepticism.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56494</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O' the mass of arms, the brilliant leadership, the courage and magnitude of the ancient armies of Greece, combined to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9778]]></link><description><![CDATA[O' the mass of arms, the brilliant leadership, the courage and magnitude of the ancient armies of Greece, combined to conquer the city of Troy - all that, and ten years of perseverance]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9778</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  Someone gave me a bit of brick and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7497]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of George Augustus Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand, 1878  Someone gave me a bit of brick and a little slab of marble from Rome. It was wonderful to touch one of them and think, Perhaps the Apostle Paul or one of the martyrs touched this as they passed. But how much more wonderful is it to think that we have, for our own use, the very same sword our Lord used when the Devil attacked Him. [Brooke Foss] Westcott says "the Word of God" in Ephesians 6:17 means "a definite utterance of God". We know these "definite utterances" -- we have the same Book that He had, and we can do as He did. So let us learn the "definite utterances" that they may be ready in our minds; ready for use at the moment of need -- our sword which never grows dull and rusty, but is always keen and bright. So once more I say, let us not expect defeat but victory. Let us take fast hold and keep fast hold of our sword, and we shall win in any assault of the enemy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7497</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, how this spring of love resembleth The uncertain glory of an April day,  Which now shows all the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51533]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, how this spring of love resembleth The uncertain glory of an April day,  Which now shows all the beauty of the sun,   And by and by a cloud takes all away!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise from a friend, or censure from a foe, Are lost on hearers that our merits know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48010]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise from a friend, or censure from a foe, Are lost on hearers that our merits know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3297]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Image creates desire.
