[LM_NET] HIT Origin of saying "Tis better to give than receive"

[Barbara Braxton <barbara.288@BIGPOND.COM>]

Thank you to all your quick responses which pointed me to Acts 20:35 (King James 
Version):

    I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the 
weak, and to
remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than 
to receive.

I have noted the correct saying ...
