Maxim

The world’s has many ignorant maxims:
1. “All good things must come to an end.” This isn’t true for the Christian; see Ephesians 2:4–7.
2. “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” The chicken; see Genesis 1:20.
3. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” See Matthew 14:19.
4. “You can’t take it with you.” The Christian’s works “follow” him; see Revelation 14:13.
5. “There are only two things in life that are sure—death and taxes.” Plenty of people avoid taxes; none avoid death. See Hebrews 9:27.
6. “Crime doesn’t pay.” It does...up until Judgment Day; see Romans 2:6.
7. “As miserable as sin.” Sin gives pleasure; see Hebrews 11:25.
8. “That’s impossible!” With God, nothing is impossible; see Mark 10:27.
9. “No one will know!” God knows; see 1 John 3:20.
10. “It’s the perfect crime.” Judgment Day will prove that there is no such thing as a crime that escapes justice; see Hebrews 4:13.
11. “Seeing is believing.” Any magician knows that isn’t true. The eyes are easily fooled; see Proverbs 28:26.
12. “God helps those who help themselves.” God helps those who cannot help themselves; see Romans 5:6.
And one more,
13. "Follow your heart." The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked." see Jeremiah 17:9.
