In that very chapter [Romans 7] where he asserts most strongly our inability to keep the moral law he also asserts most confidently that we perceive the Law's goodness and rejoice in it according to the inward man. Our righteousness may be filthy and ragged; but Christianity gives us no ground for holding that our perceptions of right are in the same condition. They may, no doubt, be impaired; but there is a difference between imperfect sight and blindness. A theology which goes about to represent our practical reason as radically unsound is heading for disaster. If we once admit that what God means by "goodness" is sheerly different from what we judge to be good, there is no difference left between pure religion and devil worship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[show me someone not full of herself and i'll show you a hungry person ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20022]]></link><description><![CDATA[show me someone not full of herself and i'll show you a hungry person]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20022</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, thou hast a damnable iteration, and art indeed able to corrupt a saint.
