Yet they are quite incapable of filling the gap, because this infinite gulf can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object -- that is, God, Himself. He alone is man's veritable good, and since man has deserted Him it is a strange thing that there is nothing in nature that has not been capable of taking His place for man: stars, sky, earth, elements, plants, cabbages, leeks, animals, insects, calves, serpents, fever, plague, war, famine, vices, adultery, incest. And since he has lost the true good, everything can equally appear to him as such -- even his own destruction, though that is so contrary at once to God, to reason, and to nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624   It is not that we keep His commandments first, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8467]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mellitus, First Bishop of London, 624   It is not that we keep His commandments first, and that then He loves; but that He loves us, and then we keep His commandments.
