He does not advise them to find a happy medium between the contending opinions or to average the two extremes in a compromise. On the contrary, he admonished them that "every one be fully convinced in his own mind" (Rom. 14:5), because God is able to make both stand, as both of them are serving the Lord in obedience to their individual convictions of His will... Each of us has to find personally what is the will of God for his own life, and let all others meet their responsibility to do the same... For God, by giving different commands to many, and putting them together according to His plan, shall accomplish ultimately His complete will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around.

It can only be combined with the vocation of a pioneer missionary of the classic type if matrimony is felt to be spiritually neutral, irrelevant to God's calling. Marriage can be irrelevant only if we believe that the body -- matter -- is neutral, irrelevant, or evil. Man can not believe that and believe the Christian faith. God made matter, and was incarnate in it: the comparison of the relation of husband and wife to that between Christ and the Church naturally follows. But this conclusion is not always drawn, for orthodox Christians are often prone to speak and behave as if the Lord... became not flesh but spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is our sincere wish that the Northern Ireland institutions be restored as soon as possible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30123]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is our sincere wish that the Northern Ireland institutions be restored as soon as possible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vegetarian - that's an old Indian word meaning 'lousy hunter' ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43743]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vegetarian - that's an old Indian word meaning 'lousy hunter']]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19477]]></link><description><![CDATA[In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the battlefield.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God and I both knew what it meant once; now God alone knows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16476]]></link><description><![CDATA[God and I both knew what it meant once; now God alone knows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unless by the lawful judgment of their peers. [Lat., Nisi per legale judicum parum suorum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Unless by the lawful judgment of their peers. [Lat., Nisi per legale judicum parum suorum.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man should be shamefaced through his work, to give back to the worlda portion of its lost heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21838]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man should be shamefaced through his work, to give back to the worlda portion of its lost heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have reached zero tolerance for the cruelty against our animal brothers.
