It involves the concepts of authoritative examination, of unquestionable proof, of decisive judgment, of punitive power. Whatever the final issue may be, he who "convicts" another places the truth of the case in dispute in a clear light before him, so that it must be seen and acknowledged as truth. He who then rejects the conclusion which the exposition involves, rejects it with his eyes open and at his peril. Truth seen as truth carries with it condemnation to all who refuse to welcome it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 687   It seems clear that those people who personally are completely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 687   It seems clear that those people who personally are completely convinced of justification by grace alone, and who heartily grant to people of another color the right to the same justification (as long as they remain in their own churches, schools, ghettos, handyman occupations), give an ugly expression to the Augustinian and Reformation understanding of justification. By their emphasis upon the primacy of individual justification, they deny the immediate social character and impact of the justification of the Jews and Gentiles, and they obstruct or delay the changes in common life which belong to the "new creation".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21101]]></link><description><![CDATA[They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52591]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52591</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue is not solitary; it is bound to have neighbors ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60747]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue is not solitary; it is bound to have neighbors]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60747</guid></item></channel></rss>
