Abraham had no Tabernacle, with its minute ritual and special clergy. Abraham was given nothing like the detailed code of life demanded by the Sinai Covenant. Abraham was not even furnished with the basic Ten Commandments. And yet, when we turn to the New Testament, it is Abraham who holds the place of honor, and not Moses! Abraham is mentioned over seventy times in the New Testament, and half of these are in the Gospels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24785]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth than adore me for telling you lies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24785</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The earth is like a spaceship that didn't come with an operatingmanual. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22061]]></link><description><![CDATA[The earth is like a spaceship that didn't come with an operatingmanual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22061</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What a great honor for our school.
