Though now we are fallen upon another method, we have turned all religion into faith, and our faith is nothing but the production of interest or disputing; it is adhering to a party and a wrangling against all the world beside--and when it is asked of what religion he is, we understand the meaning to be what faction does he follow, what are the articles of his sect, not what is the manner of his life: and if men be zealous for their party and that interest, then they are precious men, though otherwise they be covetous as the grave, factious as Dathan, schismatical as Korah, or proud as the fallen angels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never cringe when the ball comes her way.

He it is Who in these latter days assumed a body for the salvation of us all, and taught the world concerning the Father.

It's like riding a bicycle or swimming: You learn by doing.   .. Luis Palau  March 14, 2001   Most evangelicals believe that if a passage of the Bible seems unclear in its meaning, it should be interpreted in the light of Scripture "as a whole". But what does "Scripture as a whole" mean? In practice, if not theory, it means the working systematic theology of the interpreter, or of his own theological tradition. An evangelical... would not hold to that tradition unless he believed that it did represent the wholeness of the biblical witness. Nevertheless, if this state of affairs has been correctly described, he is now in a serious difficulty. For if the Bible must always accord with a theology that has already been accepted, how can the truth of a biblical passage ever confront him afresh with an unfavorable judgment?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mistress: Something between a mister and a mattress. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27249]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mistress: Something between a mister and a mattress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She would rather be an old man's darling than a young man's warling. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61859]]></link><description><![CDATA[She would rather be an old man's darling than a young man's warling.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The World's a bubble, and the Life of Man less than a span: In his conception wretched, from the womb ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24842]]></link><description><![CDATA[The World's a bubble, and the Life of Man less than a span: In his conception wretched, from the womb so to the tomb.  Curst from his cradle, and brought up to years with cares and fears.   Who then to frail mortality shall trust,    But limns the water, or but writes in dust.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24842</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We experienced a steady increase in 1394-equipped products throughout 2005, and foresee continued expansion this year as developers demand the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34587]]></link><description><![CDATA[We experienced a steady increase in 1394-equipped products throughout 2005, and foresee continued expansion this year as developers demand the proven quality-of-service, high bandwidth, and peer-to-peer features that the 1394 standard delivers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A scepter is one thing, and a ladle another. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49074]]></link><description><![CDATA[A scepter is one thing, and a ladle another.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66069]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A vest as admired Voltiger had on, Which from this Island's foes his grandsire won,  Whose artful colour pass'd ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2740]]></link><description><![CDATA[A vest as admired Voltiger had on, Which from this Island's foes his grandsire won,  Whose artful colour pass'd the Tyrian dye,   Obliged to triumph in this legacy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Frederick Denison Maurice, Priest, teacher, 1872   Infant Baptism... has been a witness for the Son of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7012]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Frederick Denison Maurice, Priest, teacher, 1872   Infant Baptism... has been a witness for the Son of Man and the universality of His Kingdom, like no other.
