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[The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23636]]></link><description><![CDATA[The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Any single verse of the Bible, taken in isolation, may actually be dangerous to your spiritual health.
