Bible in Five Statements (Meme!)
By Chad Crawford • Dec 7th, 2009 • Category: bible stuff, engagingWho doesn’t love a good meme? My friend Tripp tagged me here at your Homebrewed Christianity, and I’m excited to participate. I may or may not have asked him to tag me. No shame in this game. I offer my humble response below. But first, the rules.
Summarise the Bible in five statements, the first one word long, the second two, the third three, the fourth four and the last five words long. Or possibly you could do this in descending order. Tag five people.
Alright, let’s get started. I am opting to up the ante, and make this even more interesting, by only using titles of songs that the Beatles have performed. That is right.
My summary in five statements:
- All You Need is Love

- Run For Your Life
- Crying, Waiting, Hoping
- Come Together
- Revolution
BOOYA!
Now I tag people. Joe Bumbulis, Mike Leaptrott, Jonathan Blundell, Bob Cornwall, and RLP himself Gordon Atkinson.
And if the powers that be will grant me one more, therivermerchant
