This is a mercy for the Christian; for when does sin ever occur in the community that he must not examine and blame himself for his own unfaithfulness in prayer and intercession, his lack of brotherly service, of fraternal reproof and encouragement -- indeed, for his own personal sin and spiritual laxity, by which he has done injury to himself, the fellowship, and the brethren? Since every sin of a member burdens and indicts the whole community, the congregation rejoices, in the midst of all the pain and the burden that the brother's sin inflicts, that it has the privilege of bearing and forgiving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nor custom, nor example, nor cast numbers Of such as do offend, make less the sin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56385]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nor custom, nor example, nor cast numbers Of such as do offend, make less the sin.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56385</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love recognizes no barriers.

Any attempts to hide behind the excuse that it is too difficult, when what we mean is that its word is too hard for us to bear, meets the just remark of a pastor from Communist Germany: "How can they say that the Bible is difficult, when young Communists are poring over much more difficult and much more technical literature to discover what Communism is all about?" Sometimes the Biblical teaching is crystal-clear, but we dare not understand it. The Christian Church has a vested interest in its present forms, and Christian people, like others, have their pleasant prejudices. This unwillingness to hear some new thing, except in times of great disturbance, plays a bigger part in weakening the voice of God through the Bible than we are prepared to admit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I prefer the wicked rather than the foolish.

That is one of the best proofs of its divine inspiration. The prophets had the forward look [and] great things were yet to come. As one of the most daring expressed it, the old and hallowed covenant, made by God at the Exodus, would be superseded by a new and higher relation; God would write his law into the hearts of the people; the old drill in outward statutes would disappear, for all men would know God by an inward experience of forgiveness and love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are an impossibility in an impossible universe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60195]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are an impossibility in an impossible universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is a daily, mutual exchange of value. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25641]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is a daily, mutual exchange of value.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25641</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be convinced that to be happy means to be free and that to be free means to be brave.

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[Open your eyes, look within.
