What does that mean? If the law were physical, then it could be satisfied by works, but since it is spiritual, no one can satisfy it unless everything he does springs from the depths of the heart. But no one can give such a heart except the Spirit of God, who makes the person be like the law, so that he actually conceives a heartfelt longing for the law and henceforward does everything, not through fear or coercion, but from a free heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Until we get equality in education, we won't have an equal society. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66665]]></link><description><![CDATA[Until we get equality in education, we won't have an equal society.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My dad was a pretty poor guy, he didn't have a whole lot of money.

The prophets were men called by God to serve as His messengers to a stubborn and unheeding people. They were always careful to point out that they were not voicing their own wisdom. Their warnings, entreaties, and promises were always prefaced by the awesome proclamation: "Thus says the Lord..." When the prophets did engage in prognostication, they usually were concerned with events which were fairly close at hand, such as the Assyrian conquest of Israel and the Babylonian conquest of Judah (both of which they foretold with deadly accuracy). But occasionally a prophet's vision ranged farther into the future, to the day when God would enter into a new covenant with his rebellious children. The hope of reconciliation was often linked with the coming of a very particular person, a Messiah or Savior.  What made the prophets so sure that they had a right--nay, a duty, to speak in the name of God? It is clear from their writings that they were not megalomaniacs who confused their own thoughts with the voice of God. On the contrary, they were humble men, awe-stricken by the responsibilities thrust upon them... The prophets minced no words in their indictments of the sins of Israel and Judah, and they trod especially hard on the toes of the rich, the powerful, and the pious. The Establishment responded then as some church members are wont to respond now when a preacher speaks out on controversial public issues: "One should not preach of such things!" (Micah 2:6).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Catt sees not the mouse ever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49810]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Catt sees not the mouse ever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The difference between your mind and your heart: Your mind tells you what is smart and your heart tells you ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62962]]></link><description><![CDATA[The difference between your mind and your heart: Your mind tells you what is smart and your heart tells you what you're going to do anyway.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
