([Dr. Arthur] Way's translation shows this.) One line in a song that comes in Romans 8 has been a great help to me. Way calls the song a "Hymn of Triumph to Jesus". This is the line: "How can He [the Father] but, in giving Him [Jesus], lavish on us all things -- all?" "Freely give" means to give lavishly. What do I need today? Strength? Peace? Patience? Heavenly joy? Industry? Good temper? Power to help others? Inward contentment? Courage? Whatever it be, my God will lavish it upon me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As far as could ken thy chalky cliffs, When from thy shore the tempest beat us back,  I stood ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57907]]></link><description><![CDATA[As far as could ken thy chalky cliffs, When from thy shore the tempest beat us back,  I stood upon the hatches in the storm,   And when the dusky sky began to rob    My earnest-gaping sight of thy land's view,     I took a costly jewel from my neck,      A heart it was, bound in with diamonds,       And threw it toward thy land.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah! well away! Seasons flower and fade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54957]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah! well away! Seasons flower and fade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54957</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Building is a sweet impoverishing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Building is a sweet impoverishing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Magic has always been an element of Witchcraft, but in the Craft its techniques were practiced within a context of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61847]]></link><description><![CDATA[Magic has always been an element of Witchcraft, but in the Craft its techniques were practiced within a context of community and connection.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61847</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A region of repose it seems, A place of slumber and of dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20995]]></link><description><![CDATA[A region of repose it seems, A place of slumber and of dreams.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20995</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28576]]></link><description><![CDATA[When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Akaka and others in the delegation downplayed the Justice Department's statement yesterday.] Every practical policy issue raised by DOJ in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32563]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Akaka and others in the delegation downplayed the Justice Department's statement yesterday.] Every practical policy issue raised by DOJ in our negotiations has been addressed and resolved, ...

But this was not the issue, quite. In this case the choice was between being a good Methodist and a good American, and being a tribal religionist. But the theological problem of churches without discipline comes into stark outline in the quotation. Inadequately trained for membership, admitted without preparatory training, without the proper instruments of voluntary discipline, many members have never had the discontinuity between life in Christ and life in the world brought home to them. Here the ordinary members are less at fault than the leadership of the churches, who -- though sworn to uphold the form of sound words and doctrine -- neglect catechetical instruction and concentrate solely on the acquisition of more new members at any price.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2117]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The history of those who shed those other tears, the history of those anonymous millions, is what Terkel wants readers ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61138]]></link><description><![CDATA[The history of those who shed those other tears, the history of those anonymous millions, is what Terkel wants readers and listeners to come away with.
