When, through the operation of such laws, surprising events take place, [we may] cry out, ... "Such is the will of God," instead of setting ourselves to inquire whether it is the will of God to give us power to bring about or prevent such results; then our conduct is not piety but sinful laziness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I expect to pass through this world but once.

Not necessarily that he must feel affection for them -- that is not always possible in this life, though it will be in heaven -- but that he must treat them as love dictates, doing always for others what he would that they should do for him.  ... A. C. McGiffert, A History of Christian Thought  August 21, 2000   At the very moment when the pulpit has fallen strangely silent about sin, fiction can talk of little except evil, not indeed viewed as sin, but apparently as the invariable ways of a peculiarly repulsive insect, which it can't help, poor thing; and there is no manner of use expecting anything from it, except the nastiness natural to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lie told often enough becomes the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59827]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lie told often enough becomes the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59827</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like to prepare dough ahead for pizza crusts too.

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...
