“God helps those who help themselves.”
Benjamin Franklin quotes (American Statesman,Scientist,Philosopher,Printer,Writer and Inventor.1706-1790)
GOD HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES - "Some faith adages roll off the tongue,like 'God helps those who help themselves.' But the saying is not biblical and,in fact,violates a primary scriptural teaching that only God determines a person's destiny,according to religion analyst George Barna (the phrase).is an ancient proverb that shows up in the literature of many cultures,including a 1736 edition of Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanack.But it does not appear in the Bible and suggests a spiritual self-reliance inconsistent with Christianity,said David Kinnaman,vice president of Barna Research Group." Mr.Kinnaman's comment was contained in a Washington Post article by Bill Broadway published in the Lexington (Ky.) Herald-Leader on Sept.2,2000.Barna included the phrase in a list of 14 used in a survey of religious beliefs conducted by his California-based research organization."The results of Barna's yearly surveys on faith and culture are meant tot help Christian pastors and groups focus their ministries," the article states.
