Is That In The Bible?

False— This was written by William Learned Marcy in his Life of Jackson.
True— See Jeremiah 13:23.
False— However, the concept is there in verses such as Proverbs 17:3 that speak of gold refining as a symbol of heart purity.
True—See Luke 6:39
False— But this is another trick question. 1 Timothy 6:10 says, "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil."
False— Genesis 3 only says that they ate from the fruit of the tree of knowledge.
True— While many people attribute this to Abraham Lincoln, who did say it in a speech about the Civil War, Jesus said this first in Mark 3:25.
False— In spite of the biblical names, this isn't in Scripture. But you may recognize a name associated with an early reference of this phrase. It appeared in Wycliffe's Select English Works in 1380, just a few years before he published the first English Bible.
False— John Donne wrote this in the 15th century.
True— See Ecclesiastes 10:1, KJV.

Oh yeah, what about God helping those who help themselves and working in mysterious ways? The "help" phrase probably originated with Algernon Sidney in the 1600s, and "mysterious ways" was penned by William Cowper.
