This makes them self-sufficient, morose, severe judges of all those that fall short of their mortifications. And thus their self-denials do only that for them which indulgences do for other people: they withstand and hinder the operation of God upon their souls, and instead of being really self-denials, they strengthen and keep up the kingdom of self.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7141</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And since the stench of death will always attract flies and vermin, the arrival of Geraldo was perhaps inevitable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58828]]></link><description><![CDATA[And since the stench of death will always attract flies and vermin, the arrival of Geraldo was perhaps inevitable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that will win his dame must do As love does when he draws his bow;  With one hand ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62005]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that will win his dame must do As love does when he draws his bow;  With one hand thrust the lady from,   And with the other pull her home.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can see clearly now ... that I was wrong in not acting more decisively and more forthrightly in dealing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47305]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can see clearly now ... that I was wrong in not acting more decisively and more forthrightly in dealing with Watergate...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To succeed in life, you need two things: ignorance and confidence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58108]]></link><description><![CDATA[To succeed in life, you need two things: ignorance and confidence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[AARP commends the Governor and the State Legislature for taking this unprecedented step in helping to ensure that New York's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40898]]></link><description><![CDATA[AARP commends the Governor and the State Legislature for taking this unprecedented step in helping to ensure that New York's most vulnerable citizens can stay warm this winter.

The first: that the consciences of believers, in seeking assurance of their justification before God, should rise above and advance beyond the law, forgetting all law righteousness... The second part, dependent upon the first, is that consciences observe the law, not as if constrained by the necessity of the law, but that freed from the law's yoke they willingly obey God's will... The third part of Christian freedom lies in this: regarding outward things that are of themselves "indifferent", we are not bound before God by any religious obligation preventing us from sometimes using them and other times not using them, indifferently... Accordingly, it is perversely interpreted both by those who allege it as an excuse for their desires that they may abuse God's good gifts to their own lust and by those who think that freedom does not exist unless it is used before men, and consequently, in using it have no regard for weaker brethren... Nothing is plainer than this rule: that we should use our freedom if it results in the edification of our neighbor, but if it does not help our neighbor, then we should forego it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When television is good, nothing is better.

But man, being himself a part of fallen nature and subject to its disordered properties, is not allowed to work with them, because it would be stirring up evil in himself, and that is his sin of wrath or revenge. God therefore reserves all vengeance to Himself, not because wrathful revenge is a temper or quality that can have any place in the holy Deity, but because the holy supernatural Deity, being free from all the properties of nature, whence partial love and hatred spring, and being in Himself nothing but an infinity of love, wisdom, and goodness, He alone knows how to overrule the disorders of nature, and so to repay evil with evil, that the highest good may be promoted by it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a voice in the Universe urging us to remember our purpose for being on this great Earth.
