Righteousness comes back when man by faith is brought to walk with God again, and to give Him His true place by acting or being acted upon in all things according to His will. Anything, therefore, not of faith is sin. And all such sin is bondage. Self-will is bondage, for self-will or independence of God means dependence on a creature; and we cannot be dependent on a creature, be it what it may, without (more or less) becoming subject to it. What has not been given up for money, or for some creature's love? But who has ever thus served the creature more than the Creator without waking at last to feel he is a bondman? I say nothing of the worse bondage which comes from our self-will, in the indulgence of our own thoughts, or passions, or affections. Even the very energies of faith, while, as yet unchastened, it acts from self, ... may only bring forth more bondage... Who but God can set men free? And He sets them free as they walk with Him. All independence of Him is darkness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6878</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two meanings have our lightest fantasies, One of the flesh, and of the spirit one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15283]]></link><description><![CDATA[Two meanings have our lightest fantasies, One of the flesh, and of the spirit one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The side played sensationally.

Such an encounter with the historical Jesus is, of course, not the same as Christian faith in him. Even Caiaphas, Herod, and Pontius Pilate encountered him in this way. Christian faith is still a matter of decision -- either this Man is God's redemptive act, or he is not. Nor is the historical Jesus the object of our faith. That object is the Risen Christ preached by the Church. But the Risen Christ is in continuity with the historical Jesus, and it is the historical Jesus which makes the Risen Christ not just an abstraction, but clothes him with flesh and blood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All three of them are competitive kids and they have always been successful players.
