Paul does not, in fact, speak (when he is using the language strictly) of "justification by faith", but of "justification by grace through faith," or "on the grounds of faith." This is not mere verbal subtlety. It means that the "righteousness of God" becomes ours, not by the assertion of the individual will as such, but by the willingness to let God work.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perhaps life is just that... a dream and a fear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64987]]></link><description><![CDATA[Perhaps life is just that... a dream and a fear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difficulties arise when we ask how much this polar complementarity [of the sexes] should be reflected in the structure ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6391]]></link><description><![CDATA[The difficulties arise when we ask how much this polar complementarity [of the sexes] should be reflected in the structure of social life, both domestic and public. The New Testament [again, and notoriously, in the person of St Paul] assumes that there will be places other than the bedroom in which men and women assume consciously differentiated roles. They will do so in the affairs of the home, in which the wife is to "submit" to her husband (Eph. 5:22ff) as head. They will do so even outside the context of family life, since man is "head" of woman in some sense; in quite another context, when the Church is at worship (I Cor. 11:2ff). In order that St Paul should not be misjudged, we must note--(a) that this relational ordering of male and female presupposes a fundamental generic equality (I Cor. 11:1 ff); and (b) that the "submission" of the wife is a special case of a "submission" of all Christians to one another, and complements a husband's love that is to be expressed in self-sacrifice (Eph. 5:2lff, 25ff). The apostle is not an apologist for male tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52571]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Evolution ever climbing after some ideal good And Reversion ever dragging Evolution in the mud. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14365]]></link><description><![CDATA[Evolution ever climbing after some ideal good And Reversion ever dragging Evolution in the mud.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14365</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have to go someplace where I can soak myself in a creative atmosphere. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37648]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have to go someplace where I can soak myself in a creative atmosphere.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37648</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before you can do something you must first be something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21388]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before you can do something you must first be something.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21388</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Silent, grim, colossal, the Big City has ever stood against its revilers.
