What causes this odd state of affairs? The root cause is the same as in most cases of error in the Church--the intruding of rationalistic speculations, the passion for systematic consistency, a reluctance to recognize the existence of mystery and to let God be wiser than men, and a consequent subjecting of Scripture to the supposed demands of human logic. People see that the Bible teaches man's responsibility for his actions; they do not see how this is consistent with the sovereign Lordship of God over those actions. They are not content to let the two truths live side by side, as they do in the Scriptures, but jump to the conclusion that, in order to uphold the biblical truth of human responsibility, they are bound to reject the equally biblical and equally true doctrine of divine sovereignty, and to explain away the great number of texts that teach it. The desire to over-simplify the Bible by cutting out the mysteries is natural to our perverse minds, and it is not surprising, that even good men should fall victims to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every investigation which is guided by principles of nature fixes its ultimate aim entirely on gratifying the stomach. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10123]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every investigation which is guided by principles of nature fixes its ultimate aim entirely on gratifying the stomach.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To a crazy ship all winds are contrary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49993]]></link><description><![CDATA[To a crazy ship all winds are contrary.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49993</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God is to be worshipped as the one beloved, dearer than everything in this and next life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66644]]></link><description><![CDATA[God is to be worshipped as the one beloved, dearer than everything in this and next life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66644</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Are we not all members of the same Body and partakers of the same Spirit and heirs of the same ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7391]]></link><description><![CDATA[Are we not all members of the same Body and partakers of the same Spirit and heirs of the same blessed hope of eternal life? ...

It is personal, with things happening between people as well as to and in them individually; it is compassionate, always eager to help, observant but non judgmental toward others, breathing out hope and concern; it is creative, with imagination about each one in the group and its work as a whole, watching for authentic new vision coming from any of them; and it is expectant, always seeking to offer to God open and believing hearts and minds through which He can work out His will, either in the sometimes startling miracles He gives or in steady purpose through long stretches where there is no special "opening". It may fairly be said that unless one enmeshes himself in this "redemptive fellowship" of the church, he lessens his chances of steady growth and effectiveness, in his Christian life and experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's allowed me to really learn a lot about fund-raising throughout the metropolitan area, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39542]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's allowed me to really learn a lot about fund-raising throughout the metropolitan area,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those true eyes Too pure and too honest in aught to disguise The sweet soul shining through them ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14811]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those true eyes Too pure and too honest in aught to disguise The sweet soul shining through them]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14811</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We felt it was best to decrease the prices when it helped our customers the most.
