Who said cleanliness is next to godliness?

John Wesley, the co-founder of Methodism, may have been the originator of the slogan "cleanliness is next to godliness." In 1791, he referenced the phrase in one of his sermons as we use it today. Wesley wrote, “Slovenliness is no part of religion. Cleanliness is indeed next to Godliness."

What does the Bible says about hygiene?

Do not make yourselves unclean by means of them or be made unclean by them. I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am holy.

What does the Bible say about being clean and organized?

The best verse in support of organization is 1 Corinthians 14:40, which tells us that all things must be done decently and in order. All this must of course be balanced with relationships. We cannot become like Martha, putting organization and preparation as an idol above our God, husbands, children, and others.
