birthday gospel
I've seen it in a couple of different spots, so I thought I'd try it out here.
Here's what you do: You take the month and day of your birthday, which in my case would be April 4th (4/4), and then you look up that chapter and verse in the four Gospels. Here is what I came up with (according to the NRSV):
Matthew 4.4
But he answered, ‘It is written,“One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” ’
Mark 4.4
And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and the birds came and ate it up.
Luke 4.4
Jesus answered him, ‘It is written, “One does not live by bread alone.” ’
John 4.4
But he had to go through Samaria.
