We measure Him by our own intellectual standard if we think otherwise. And so our solution of the problem of Free-will and of the problems of history and of individual salvation must finally lie in the full acceptance and realisation of what is implied by the infinity and the omniscience of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6891</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18763]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18763</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you don't change your beliefs, your life will be like this forever.

To Homer, the dawn was "rosy-fingered"; to Shakespeare, it was "in russet mantle clad"; to Housman, "the ship of sunrise burning". The scientist can explain exactly why the sky looks as it does in the early morning, the physiologist why we perceive as we do. Yet no one suggests that there is no dawn at all, or that its appearance has changed over the centuries, or that any one of these percipients was mad or deceitful. Why should our knowledge of the Creator be less capable of variety and development than our knowledge of any aspect of Creation?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fly, a grape-stone, or a hair can kill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50918]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fly, a grape-stone, or a hair can kill.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pray as though everything depended on God.
