Gd helps those who help themselves??

I think the maxim

Gd helps those who help themselves

is imprecise and misleading.

To a certain limited extent, that maxim is helpful in motivating people to be responsible. It is also a very individualistic maxim, giving someone the impression that his only focus should be his/her own individual self.

Rather, if we accept the premise of my argument about Evolution being the only begotten of Gd, we would come to an understanding that,

Gd would make exceptions and intervene to help, if such intervention does not negatively impact the Evolutionary progress of the human race toward becoming His Bride. He would intervene regardless for an individual or over groups of people.

Perhaps, Gd would enthusiastically intervene if an intervention becomes a catalyst to the Evolutionary progress of the human race.

But that is not true! Gd does not really intervene. The only interface between Gd and humankind is the Sabbath contract. Therefore, the only path of communication between Gd and humankind is the Sabbath. Which means fulfillment of the Sabbath contract is the only path of salvation for humankind and the Universe.

I am using the Hebrew meaning of Salvation, which has nothing to do with sending people to heaven or hell, but the plain simple meaning of intervening help. Early Christian theologians had conveniently retrofitted the Hebrew word for Salvation into their  pagan-derived concepts of purgatory, heaven and hell.

The Presence of Gd is already within the Sabbath. Intervention is a built-in feature of the Sabbath. The Sabbath itself is the intervention continuum. I use the word continuum because the Sabbath is not intervention on singular discrete basis. The Sabbath is a flow of Salvation, providing relief from any stress and conflicts emanating from evolutionary and other universal processes.

Even Christianity records (Mark 2:27) Jesus as having said,

The Sabbath is made for humankind and not humankind for the Sabbath.

The Sabbath is not an individual's Salvation. There is no such thing as the Salvation of an individual. The two opposing football teams cannot pray for Divine intervention to win the game.

All things do NOT work for the good of those who love Gd. All things work for the survival of the human race.

The Sabbath is the salvation of a family, a community, a nation, a planet and the Universe. Our individual contribution to the observance of Sabbath constitutes collectively to the Salvation of entities around us. One less observance is one less contribution to the collective Salvation of humankind. Worse, if such non-observance is geometrically-progressively infectious.

That is why Biblical laws recommend that Sabbath violators be put to death and be eliminated from the community because their activities/inactivities diminish the collective karma of the community, the contamination which then leaks to further communities and even to the rest of the Universe in minuscule measures.  Sabbath observant Jews in Brooklyn should be as worried of the effects on their Salvation due to non-observance of Sabbath in Shanghai as much as non-observance within their own community.

I do not mean the colloquial Hindu meaning of karma, but the Sanskrit meaning. I guess if John 14:6 is  translated into Amplified Bible equivalent in Sanskrit, it could be

I am the karma, the satya and the jiwa.

If you walked off a cliff, the karma is you would fall to your death. If you drove northwards on 7th Ave after exiting from I-70 tunnel, its karma would let you reach Times Square, unless you diverted off Broadway. However, you would need to consider more than one dimension of the karma of 7th Ave, because it is a south-bound way. The karma is you cannot drive northwards on 7th Ave, unless you walk. Not that you cannot, you should not.
