It is this explanation of justification by faith only which leads us to the true depth of what the Gospel has contributed to this world. To live by grace and to die by grace, to live in forgiveness every day, every hour and every moment, means to identify oneself with those who do not share our faith, and to realize all the debts we owe them. Let us not be afraid that this will reduce the Gospel to relativism. Its depth is in proportion to its breadth. The deeper it is, the broader and fuller it becomes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not expect the world to look bright, if you habitually wear gray-brown glasses. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45211]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not expect the world to look bright, if you habitually wear gray-brown glasses.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They say fingers were made before forks, and hands before knives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13282]]></link><description><![CDATA[They say fingers were made before forks, and hands before knives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they do not know the game. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65791]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they do not know the game.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65791</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People often say that motivation doesn't last.
