There are many sayings that we assume are in the bible, but aren't, actually, like for instance, "Cleanliness is next to Godliness." <BR/><BR/>I've heard that one all my life, but it is not in the bible. :)<BR/><BR/>I always appreciate your comments.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16083702120097667613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071607692933192813.post-16460605640565512902007-11-16T13:39:00.000-05:002007-11-16T13:39:00.000-05:00If I remember my bible schoolin' I think that thos...If I remember my bible schoolin' I think that those words are found in 1st Corinthians by the Apostle Paul but obviously it is merely another use of the phrase.<BR/><BR/>More recently the phrase has been seen in Southern California newspaper Headlines regarding the devastating fires.
