But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technology funds and small-cap funds are where the volatility is going to be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35354]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technology funds and small-cap funds are where the volatility is going to be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, what a mansion have those vices got Which for their habitation chose out thee,  Where beauty's veil doth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60512]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, what a mansion have those vices got Which for their habitation chose out thee,  Where beauty's veil doth cover every blot   And all things turns to fair that eyes can see!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like strength is felt from hope, and from despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57939]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like strength is felt from hope, and from despair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57939</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happy the poet who with ease can steer From grave to gay, from lively to severe.  [Lat., Heureux qui, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46840]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happy the poet who with ease can steer From grave to gay, from lively to severe.  [Lat., Heureux qui, dans ses vers, sait d'une voix legere   Passer du grave au doux, du plaisant au severe.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This hand, to tyrants ever sworn the foe, For freedom only deals the deadly blow;  Then sheathes in calm ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45861]]></link><description><![CDATA[This hand, to tyrants ever sworn the foe, For freedom only deals the deadly blow;  Then sheathes in calm repose the vengeful blade,   For gentle peace in freedom's hallowed shade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45861</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I really like our team - we are a team that (opponents) really can't figure out.
