If therefore we depart without profit, our zeal in frequenting the church will prove our condemnation. That so great a judgment comes not upon you, when ye go hence ponder the things ye have heard, and exercise yourselves in confirming our instruction -- friend with friend, fathers with their children, masters with their slaves -- so that, when ye return hither and hear from us the same counsels, ye may not be ashamed, but rejoice and be glad in the conviction that ye have put into practice the greater part of our exhortation. Not only must we meditate upon these things here -- for this short exhortation sufficeth not to eradicate the evil -- but at home let the husband be reminded of them by the wife, and the wife by the husband, and let an emulation obtain in families to the fulfilment of the divine law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul O for a thousand tongues to sing   My great Redeemer's praise, The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6332]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul O for a thousand tongues to sing   My great Redeemer's praise, The glories of my God and King,   The triumphs of his grace! My gracious Master and my God,   Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad   The honours of thy name. Jesus! the name that charms our fears,   That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears,   'Tis life, and health, and peace. He breaks the power of cancelled sin,   He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean,   His blood availed for me. He speaks, and, listening to his voice,   New life the dead receive, The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,   The humble poor believe. Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,   Your loosened tongues employ; Ye blind, behold your Saviour come,   And leap, ye lame, for joy. Look unto him, ye nations, own   Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone,   Be justified by grace. See all your sins on Jesus laid:   The Lamb of God was slain, His soul was once an offering made   For every soul of man. Awake from guilty nature's sleep,   And Christ shall give you light, Cast all your sins into the deep,   And wash you purest white. With me, your chief, ye then shall know,   Shall feel your sins forgiven; Anticipate your heaven below,   And own that love is heaven.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12346]]></link><description><![CDATA[I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12346</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is it for thee the linnet pours his throat? Loves of his own, and raptures swell the note. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25139]]></link><description><![CDATA[Is it for thee the linnet pours his throat? Loves of his own, and raptures swell the note.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I play [golf] with friends sometimes, but there are never friendly games. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57566]]></link><description><![CDATA[I play [golf] with friends sometimes, but there are never friendly games.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why, I'd like nothing better than to achieve some bold adventure, worthy of our trip. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29572]]></link><description><![CDATA[Why, I'd like nothing better than to achieve some bold adventure, worthy of our trip.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you lead on the people with correctness, who will dare not to be correct? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24405]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you lead on the people with correctness, who will dare not to be correct?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest possible amount of feathers with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58682]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest possible amount of feathers with the smallest possible amount of hissing]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17819]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17819</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important thing here is that the government will stick to its policy of no ransom payments, ...
