It was the God, in fact, whom the whole of the life of Jesus set forth, to the astonishment of those among whom He moved. Loving still, He brought God to men in the same unmistakable way. The divine love that through Jesus had found the public an Zacchaeus had now through the risen Christ found Paul the Pharisee. Hence forward the central facts of life for Paul were that while he was yet a sinner God had found and forgiven him, and that this was the work of Jesus Christ, in whose love the love of God had become plain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Exercise is bunk.

In these Books we shall find the father from whom, the son by whom, and the holy Ghost in whom all things have their being and keeping up, and these three persons to be but one God, and one substance.   Read [Holy Scripture] humbly with a meek and lowly heart, to the intent you may glorify God, and not your self, with the knowledge of it: and read it not without daily praying to God, that he would direct your reading to good effect: and take upon you to expound it no further than you can plainly understand it. For (as Saint Augustine says) the knowledge of holy Scripture is a great, large, and a high place, but the door is very low, so that the high & arrogant man cannot run in: but he must stoop low, and humble himself, that shall enter into it... The humble man may search any truth boldly in the Scripture, without any danger of error. (Continued tomorrow)   ... "A Fruitful exhortation to the reading of holy Scripture", from the Anglican Homilies [1562]  March 4, 2001 Commemoration of Felix, Bishop, Apostle to the East Angles, 647 Continuing a short series of testimonies on the Scriptures:   Scripture in some places is easy, and in some places hard to be understood. This have I said, as touching the fear to read, through ignorance of the person. And concerning the hardness of Scripture, he that is so weak that he is not able to [eat] strong meat, yet he may suck the sweet and tender milk, and defer the rest, until he wax stronger, and come to more knowledge. For God receives the learned and unlearned, and casts away none, but [does not discriminate]. And the Scripture is full as well of low valleys, plain ways, and easy for every man to use, and to walk in: as also of high hills & mountains, which few men can climb unto.   ... "A Fruitful exhortation to the reading of holy Scripture", from the Anglican Homilies [1562]  March 5, 2001 Continuing a short series of testimonies on the Scriptures:   We are to believe and follow Christ in all things, including his words about Scripture. And this means that Scripture is to be for us what it was to him: the unique, authoritative, and inerrant Word of God, and not merely a human testimony to Christ, however carefully guided and preserved by God. If the Bible is less than this to us, we are not fully Christ's disciples.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Court recognized that just like shopping malls are the new public square, these associations have become and act, for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35084]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Court recognized that just like shopping malls are the new public square, these associations have become and act, for all practical purposes, like municipal entities unto themselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Enjoy life.

Because it rests on Christ and his authority, the question of inerrancy will therefore remain a key doctrine of the evangelical church so long as Christ is Lord. Evangelicals must remember, however, that this basis must be set forth anew for every generation. What was adequate for Gaussen, Pieper, and Warfield is still valuable, but it is not necessarily adequate to serve as the foundation for the thinking of our generation. The case for inerrancy must be made anew with each presentation of the gospel teaching.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The jury has a right to judge both the law as well as the fact in controversy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47475]]></link><description><![CDATA[The jury has a right to judge both the law as well as the fact in controversy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The language of truth is unadorned and always simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24020]]></link><description><![CDATA[The language of truth is unadorned and always simple.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65989]]></link><description><![CDATA[It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65989</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The coziness between church and state is good for the state and bad for the church. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53513]]></link><description><![CDATA[The coziness between church and state is good for the state and bad for the church.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To our knowledge, this analysis is the first to assess both the transient and long-term risk of sudden cardiac death ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31787]]></link><description><![CDATA[To our knowledge, this analysis is the first to assess both the transient and long-term risk of sudden cardiac death associated with physical activity among women.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are all just monkeys in business suits running around pretending to be executives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19976]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are all just monkeys in business suits running around pretending to be executives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've got to go [back to the moon].
