In that very chapter [Romans 7] where he asserts most strongly our inability to keep the moral law he also asserts most confidently that we perceive the Law's goodness and rejoice in it according to the inward man. Our righteousness may be filthy and ragged; but Christianity gives us no ground for holding that our perceptions of right are in the same condition. They may, no doubt, be impaired; but there is a difference between imperfect sight and blindness. A theology which goes about to represent our practical reason as radically unsound is heading for disaster. If we once admit that what God means by "goodness" is sheerly different from what we judge to be good, there is no difference left between pure religion and devil worship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8498</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your pettifoggers damn their souls, To share with knaves in cheating fools. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24253]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your pettifoggers damn their souls, To share with knaves in cheating fools.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24253</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A crooked log makes a strait fire [A crooked log makes a straight fire.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16009]]></link><description><![CDATA[A crooked log makes a strait fire [A crooked log makes a straight fire.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16009</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thinking in words slows you down and actually decreases comprehension in much the same way as walking a tightrope too ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/937]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thinking in words slows you down and actually decreases comprehension in much the same way as walking a tightrope too slowly makes one lose one's balance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I dreamed a thousand new paths.
