The Bible in Five Statements
A fun meme has been floating around the interwebs as of late — Summarize the Bible in Five Statements.
I haven’t tracked down the originator yet, but I picked up on it from Michael Morrell’s post and it’s been fun following along as it’s spread from there.
And now I’ve been tagged too by the legendary podcaster himself, Chad Crawford.
Here are the rules…
Summarize 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.
Chaos
God breathes
Mankind rebels against
Jesus brings total restoration
Journey towards heaven on earth
So, now I tag the following:
headphonaught, Stewart Cutler, existentialpunk, Kevin Hendricks, Charles Lee
And if I can cheat and tag a few others:
Mike Rusch, Greg Russinger, Jason Dukes and Steve Knight
And here are some of the others who have participated…
Carl McColeman
Zoecarnate
Missio Dei
Trip “the legendary Homebrewer of Theology” Fuller
The Hopeful Skeptic
Carpenter’s Shoes
Ephemermal Thoughts
Episcopalifem
Eternal Echoes
The Girl Who Cried Epiphany
Glocal Christianity
Hardly the Last Word
Steve Hayes
Him Called Bean
A Spirit Like the Wind
Tanzania and James
The Websight of Unknowing
Yewtree
So what about you? How would you summarize the Bible (or your scripture of choice) in five statements?
