No doubt there are very good excuses for this lack of discipline. Many forward-thinking men will tell you that the Bible is not worth serious attention, that it is simple, trivial, and out-of-date; and so, even though you may hear the Bible read, read it yourselves, or even study it, the tension of your energy may be relaxed -- subtly relaxed. But is quite certain that a widespread relaxation of the tension of Biblical interpretation has disastrous effects. For there is no corruption that threatens a country so surely as the corruption or sentimentalizing of its religion; and there is no corruption of the Christian religion so swift as that which sets in when the Church loses its strict Biblical discipline.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Competition is not only the basis of protection to the consumer, but is the incentive to progress. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Competition is not only the basis of protection to the consumer, but is the incentive to progress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64525]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone can steer the ship when the sea is calm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24461]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone can steer the ship when the sea is calm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't like something, change it.

To put it in a provocative manner: the Bible is theology. It is historical theology.
