They try to believe in the truth of His word, but the truth of His Being they understand not. In His oath they persuade themselves that they put confidence: in himself they do not believe, for they know Him not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That cause is strong which has not a multitude, but one strong man behind it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27545]]></link><description><![CDATA[That cause is strong which has not a multitude, but one strong man behind it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27545</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Magic has not appealed to a younger market for a long time.
