The prophets were men called by God to serve as His messengers to a stubborn and unheeding people. They were always careful to point out that they were not voicing their own wisdom. Their warnings, entreaties, and promises were always prefaced by the awesome proclamation: "Thus says the Lord..." When the prophets did engage in prognostication, they usually were concerned with events which were fairly close at hand, such as the Assyrian conquest of Israel and the Babylonian conquest of Judah (both of which they foretold with deadly accuracy). But occasionally a prophet's vision ranged farther into the future, to the day when God would enter into a new covenant with his rebellious children. The hope of reconciliation was often linked with the coming of a very particular person, a Messiah or Savior.  What made the prophets so sure that they had a right--nay, a duty, to speak in the name of God? It is clear from their writings that they were not megalomaniacs who confused their own thoughts with the voice of God. On the contrary, they were humble men, awe-stricken by the responsibilities thrust upon them... The prophets minced no words in their indictments of the sins of Israel and Judah, and they trod especially hard on the toes of the rich, the powerful, and the pious. The Establishment responded then as some church members are wont to respond now when a preacher speaks out on controversial public issues: "One should not preach of such things!" (Micah 2:6).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What the Nation must realize is that the home, when both parents work, is non-existent.

Among the adulatory formulas with which the emperor was acclaimed, Prof. Ethelbert Stauffer mentions, as going back to the first century, "Hail, Victory, Lord of the earth, Invincible, Power, Glory, Honour, Peace, Security, Holy, Blessed, Unequalled, Great, Thou alone worthy art, Worthy is he to inherit the Kingdom, Come, come, do not delay, Come again" (p. 155) [in Christ and the Caesars]. Indeed, one has only to read Psalm lxxii, in Latin, in the official language of the empire, to see that it is largely the same formal language which is used alike in the Forum for the advent of the emperor, and in the catacombs for the celebration of the "Epiphany of Christ" (p. 251). Who was worthy to ascend the throne of the universe and direct the course of history? Caesar, or Jesus?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6791</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Treat your friend as if he will one day be your enemy, and your enemy as if he will one ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13811]]></link><description><![CDATA[Treat your friend as if he will one day be your enemy, and your enemy as if he will one day be your friend]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13811</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is a romance in which the hero dies in the first chapter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27297]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage is a romance in which the hero dies in the first chapter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Santa is our culture's only mythic figure truly believed in by a large percentage of the population.
