Dr. (Thomas) Chalmers tells us that he was brought up -- such was the effect of the current orthodoxy upon him -- in a certain distrust of good works. Some were certainly wanted, but not as being themselves salvation, only, as he puts it, as tokens of justification. It was a distinct stage in his religious progress when he realized that true justification sanctifies, and that the soul can and ought to abandon itself spontaneously and joyfully to do the good that it delights in. The modern mind assumes what Dr. Chalmers painfully discovered. An atonement that does not regenerate, it truly holds, is not an atonement in which men can be asked to believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Americans were to make the effort to manage their weight using a variety of options, including better nutrition, more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41068]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Americans were to make the effort to manage their weight using a variety of options, including better nutrition, more exercise, approved medications or even surgical approaches, we would be rewarded with significantly better health,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A great choice.

Love comes into it too, of course, but in Europe we tend to see marital love as an eternity which encompasses hate and also indifference: when we promise to love we really mean that we promise to honor a contract. Americans, seeming to take marriage with not enough seriousness, are really taking love and sex with too much.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2015</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have read somewhere or other, in Dionysius of Halicarnassus, I think, that history is philosophy teaching by examples. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19313]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have read somewhere or other, in Dionysius of Halicarnassus, I think, that history is philosophy teaching by examples.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beneath these green trees rising to the skies, The planter of them, Isaac Greentree, lies;  The time shall come ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14103]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beneath these green trees rising to the skies, The planter of them, Isaac Greentree, lies;  The time shall come when these green trees shall fall,   And Isaac Greentree rise above them all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14103</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We gave him a pitcher.
