But the way to put a stop to this declension is not by accommodating the commands of God to the corrupt courses and ways of men. The truths of God and the holiness of His precepts must be pleaded and defended, though the world dislike them here and perish hereafter. His law must not be made to lackey after the wills of men, nor be dissolved by vain interpretations, because they complain they cannot -- indeed, because they will not -- comply with it. Our Lord Jesus Christ came not to destroy the law and the prophets, but to fulfill them, and to supply men with spiritual strength to fulfill them also. It is evil to break the least commandment; but there is a great aggravation of that evil in them that shall teach men so to do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From his silence a man's consent is inferred. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50548]]></link><description><![CDATA[From his silence a man's consent is inferred.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[realities we often overlook. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39009]]></link><description><![CDATA[realities we often overlook.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39009</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let the blacksmith wear the chains he has himself made. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48609]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let the blacksmith wear the chains he has himself made.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That is the point of quotations.
