But since we are not favored with daily oracles from heaven, and since it is only in the Scriptures that the Lord hath been pleased to preserve His truth in perpetual remembrance, it obtains the same complete credit and authority with believers, when they are satisfied of its divine origin, as if they heard the very words pronounced by God Himself... Let it be considered, then, as an undeniable truth, that they who have been inwardly taught by the Spirit feel an entire acquiescence in the Scripture, and that it is self-authenticated, carrying with it its own evidence, and ought not to be made the subject of demonstration and arguments from reason; but it obtains the credit which it deserves with us by the testimony of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7525</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Fawn and His MotherA young fawn once said to his Mother, You are larger than a dog, and swifter, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1527]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Fawn and His MotherA young fawn once said to his Mother, You are larger than a dog, and swifter, and more used to running, and you have your horns as a defense; why, then, O Mother! do the hounds frighten you so? She smiled, and said: I know full well, my son, that all you say is true. I have the advantages you mention, but when I hear even the bark of a single dog I feel ready to faint, and fly away as fast as I can. No arguments will give courage to the coward.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are elements of a win because the rate that was going to be in effect for the Web was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28800]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are elements of a win because the rate that was going to be in effect for the Web was cut in half, and there's no longer a two-tiered structure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What you must realize is that the kids are always teenagers - but he's an angel, so he's ageless. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35104]]></link><description><![CDATA[What you must realize is that the kids are always teenagers - but he's an angel, so he's ageless.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pain adds rest unto pleasure, and teaches the luxury of health. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45392]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pain adds rest unto pleasure, and teaches the luxury of health.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Martin, Monk, Bishop of Tours, 397  In short: in all his ways and walks, whether as touching ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6506]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Martin, Monk, Bishop of Tours, 397  In short: in all his ways and walks, whether as touching his own business, or his dealings with other men, he must keep his heart with all diligence, lest he do aught, or turn aside to aught, or suffer aught to spring up or dwell within him or about him, or let anything be done in him or through him, otherwise than were meet for God, and would be possible and seemly if God Himself were verily made Man.  ... Theologia Germanica    November 12, 1997  The Partisan Review, a journal of literary opinion representing a section of advanced secular thought, recently published a series of papers answering the question, "Why has there been a turn toward religion among intellectuals?" The asking of the question is significant. Few writers dispute the fact implied by it. Most of the contributors, whether they count themselves among those who have "turned to religion" or not, find the principal reason for it in the collapse of the optimistic hope that modern science and human good will would bring the world into an era of peace and justice. The confidence in that outcome has been so violently shaken that men must ask whether there are not higher resources than man's to sustain courage and hope. The faith of the Bible points to such sources. God works within the tragic destiny of human efforts with a healing power, and a reconciling spirit. Even those who have felt completely superior to all "outworn" religious notions, must look today at least wistfully to the possibility that such a God lives and works.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're going to help them in any way we can. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31502]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're going to help them in any way we can.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maybe this is why so many serial killers work in pairs.

The temptation to institutionalism is always with us, and who will profess himself guiltless? We reduce Christianity to the service of an institution, the Church, for this enables us to be active in what is fondly called "the work of the Lord," while at the same time failing to grapple with the fundamental problem for all Christians, that of winning our generation for Christ. In our little circle of like-minded people we condemn outsiders because they do not come in. Perhaps we even make half-hearted attempts to get them to come in. And then we snuggle down again in the warmth of our fellowship, comforted that we have done all that might reasonably be expected of men in our situation. Fortified with this consolation we concentrate on keeping the institution, the Church, running as it should.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Whatever is, is not," is the maxim of the anarchist, as often as anything comes across him in the shape ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17980]]></link><description><![CDATA["Whatever is, is not," is the maxim of the anarchist, as often as anything comes across him in the shape of a law which he happens not to like.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56175]]></link><description><![CDATA[Being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23013]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her inventions nothing is lacking, and nothing is superfluous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We follow the parliament and will definitely implement its bills, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41296]]></link><description><![CDATA[We follow the parliament and will definitely implement its bills,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who dares, wins. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28114]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who dares, wins.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58769]]></link><description><![CDATA[If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Colleges are places where pebbles are polished and diamonds are dimmed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13505]]></link><description><![CDATA[Colleges are places where pebbles are polished and diamonds are dimmed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13505</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are so vain that we even care for the opinion of those we don't care for. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47703]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are so vain that we even care for the opinion of those we don't care for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Transforms old print To zigzag manuscript, and cheats the eyes  Of gallery critics by a thousand arts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48249]]></link><description><![CDATA[Transforms old print To zigzag manuscript, and cheats the eyes  Of gallery critics by a thousand arts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a wonderful community collaboration. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33448]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's a wonderful community collaboration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33448</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jeff's a great athlete that maintains himself in excellent physical condition.

The emphasis is on unselfish. Excepting a small minority of mercenary or sadistic disposition, wars are not fought for personal gain, but out of loyalty and devotion to king, country or cause. Homicide committed for personal reasons is a statistical rarity in all cultures, including our own. Homicide for unselfish reasons, at the risk of one's own life, is the dominant phenomenon of history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fear can be conquered.
