He did not here and now deal with sinful men. Paul lets us see how new and wonderful was the experience when God "flashed on his heart" in personal dealing with him. He had not suspected that God was like that. His theological studies had told him that God was loving and merciful; but he had thought this love and mercy were expressed once and for all in the arrangements He had made for Israel's blessedness... It was a new thing to be assured by an inward experience admitting of no further question that God loved him, and that the eternal mercy was a Father's free forgiveness of His erring child. This was the experience that Christ had brought him: he had seen the splendour of God's own love in the face of "the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."

The rustic driver, stupefied and aghast, stood looking at the wagon, and did nothing but utter loud cries to Hercules to come and help him. Hercules, it is said, appeared and thus addressed him: Put your shoulders to the wheels, my man. Goad on your bullocks, and never more pray to me for help, until you have done your best to help yourself, or depend upon it you will henceforth pray in vain. Self-help is the best help.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The aging process has you firmly in its grasp if you never get the urge to throw a snowball. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1854]]></link><description><![CDATA[The aging process has you firmly in its grasp if you never get the urge to throw a snowball.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We like to think our fees and services, the charges we apply, are competitive. ...

It remains the great problem of interpretation, hitherto never entirely solved, how to unite these two things: the keen attention to what Paul wanted to say to that community then, and the search for what God wants to say to us through Paul today. In the end, the question is whether the reader will really allow God to speak to him, or whether he evades God by hiding behind "Paul", behind "the past".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And a breastplate made of daisies, Closely fitting, leaf on leaf,  Periwinkles interlaced   Drawn for belt about ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10980]]></link><description><![CDATA[And a breastplate made of daisies, Closely fitting, leaf on leaf,  Periwinkles interlaced   Drawn for belt about the waist;    While the brown bees, humming praises,     Shot their arrows round the chief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you put garbage in a computer nothing comes out but garbage.
