But the substance of that covenant is all pure mercy and grace. If men presume to claim for themselves, upon the basis of the covenant, some relationship with God other than that of the sinner needing God's grace, the covenant has been perverted. And when that has happened, God, in the sovereign freedom of His grace, destroy these pretensions, calls "No people" to be His people, breaks off natural branches and grafts in wild slips, filling them with the life that is His own life imparted to man. There is no law in His Kingdom save the law of pure grace. That is why they come from east and west to sit down with Abraham and Isaac, while the sons of the Kingdom are cast out; for the sons of the Kingdom have no place there unless they are willing to sit down with all whom the Lord of the feast shall call, and to receive His mercy in exactly the same way as the publicans and sinners.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7421</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can measure a man's character by the choices he makes underpressure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57670]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can measure a man's character by the choices he makes underpressure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hate the idea of causes, and if I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4165]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hate the idea of causes, and if I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4165</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An undying hatred, and a wound never to be healed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50431]]></link><description><![CDATA[An undying hatred, and a wound never to be healed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Charles Williams, Spiritual Writer, 1945  Although we have different ways of worshipping and doing things, we have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Charles Williams, Spiritual Writer, 1945  Although we have different ways of worshipping and doing things, we have only one God.

The truth is hardly less the loser because the inquisitor has altered his methods.
