You will never get them open by philosophy or thinking. Immediately you obey, a flash of light comes. Let God's truth work in you by soaking in it, not by worrying into it. Obey God in the thing He is at present showing you, and instantly the next thing is opened up. We read tomes on the work of the Holy Spirit when... five minutes of drastic obedience would make things clear as a sunbeam. We say, "I suppose I shall understand these things some day." You can understand them now: it is not study that does it, but obedience. The tiniest fragment of obedience, and heaven opens up and the profoundest truths of God are yours straight away. God will never reveal more truth about Himself till you obey what you know already. Beware of being wise and prudent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[That could be the situation throughout the game, but Razorbacks defensive backs coach Bobby Allen said the defense expects to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30343]]></link><description><![CDATA[[That could be the situation throughout the game, but Razorbacks defensive backs coach Bobby Allen said the defense expects to keep its usual scheme.] We match up our corners vs. wide receivers in everything we do.

Some truth taught in Scripture, some part of the divine revelation, is apprehended, and the heart responds to it and accepts it. As it is dwelt upon, expounded, defended; its power and beauty increasingly influence those affected by it. Another side of truth, another view of revelation, also contained in Scripture, seems to weaken, even to contradict, the truth that has been found to be so effectual. and in jealous fear for the doctrine accepted and taught, the balancing truth is minimized, explained away, and even denied. So on a portion of revelation, on a part of the Word, a sect is founded, good and useful because it preaches and practices Divine truth, but limited and unbalanced because it does not see all truth, nor frankly accept the whole of Scripture. Its members are not only deprived of the full use of all Scripture, but are cut off from the fellowship of many saints, who are less limited than they, or limited in another direction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7762</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19635]]></link><description><![CDATA[Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There have been three great inventions since the beginning of time: fire, the wheel, and central banking ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23020]]></link><description><![CDATA[There have been three great inventions since the beginning of time: fire, the wheel, and central banking]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody out there.

Grieving over his loss, the Father resolved to kill the Snake. The next day, when it came out of its hole for food, he took up his axe, but by swinging too hastily, missed its head and cut off only the end of its tail. After some time the Cottager, afraid that the Snake would bite him also, endeavored to make peace, and placed some bread and salt in the hole. The Snake, slightly hissing, said: There can henceforth be no peace between us; for whenever I see you I shall remember the loss of my tail, and whenever you see me you will be thinking of the death of your son. No one truly forgets injuries in the presence of him who caused the injury.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1552</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many market observers are coming out with the belief that the market will break upward after the election.
