We demand, as the apostle demanded, that he must hold fast the faithful word -- at least, so far as that he shall not write deliberate heresy in his examination papers, and shall profess belief in the Creed. We demand, as he demanded, that the candidate must be apt to teach -- at least, so far as an examination of his verbal memory can prove that he knows what he ought to teach. But there is some difference between the "without reproach" of the apostle and our testimonials; and there is a difference between the holding fast of the faith by a man tried in the furnace of life, and the soundness in the faith of a youth fresh from a theological school; and the aptness to teach of a man of experience and social authority is not quite the same thing as the aptness to teach of a young man who has just passed an examination in the subject-matter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7873</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Debt relief is considered to be aid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29041]]></link><description><![CDATA[Debt relief is considered to be aid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29041</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a love story with six protagonists, ...
