Dr. [Thomas] Chalmers tells us that he was brought up -- such was the effect of the current orthodoxy upon him -- in a certain distrust of good works. Some were certainly wanted, but not as being themselves salvation, only, as he puts it, as tokens of justification. It was a distinct stage in his religious progress when he realised that true justification sanctifies, and that the soul can and ought to abandon itself spontaneously and joyfully to do the good that it delights in... An atonement that does not regenerate... is not an atonement in which men can be asked to believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[but it is only a small snapshot of what is going on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39734]]></link><description><![CDATA[but it is only a small snapshot of what is going on.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39734</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When someone comes to you and tells you she and her kids are alive because Shirley was in their school, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31452]]></link><description><![CDATA[When someone comes to you and tells you she and her kids are alive because Shirley was in their school, it's indescribable.

It may be better laid at the door of the church [that] has failed to preach the God of the Bible, heaven and hell, repentance, faith, and eternal life. It can be argued that a society only gets the advertising it deserves. Yet the power to commend certain patterns of spending behaviour to millions with regularity is an open invitation to orchestrate the covetousness, envy, lust, and desire to dominate, which lie in the heart of sinful man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7628</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We pursue that which retreats from us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11982]]></link><description><![CDATA[We pursue that which retreats from us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11982</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love to travel, But hate to arrive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59613]]></link><description><![CDATA[I love to travel, But hate to arrive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59613</guid></item></channel></rss>
