Question 1 Report
The triumphal entry was in fulfilment of the prophecy of_______
Answer Details
The triumphal entry refers to the event when Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey, just a few days before he was crucified. It is said to have fulfilled a prophecy from the Old Testament book of Zechariah. In Zechariah 9:9, it is written: "Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey." This prophecy was written hundreds of years before Jesus' birth and is believed by Christians to have been fulfilled by his triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a donkey, as recorded in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The people of Jerusalem, who were familiar with this prophecy, saw Jesus' entry on a donkey as a sign that he was the promised Messiah and King who would deliver them from their oppressors. They welcomed him with great joy and praised him as the Son of David, the rightful heir to the throne of Israel. Thus, the triumphal entry was seen as a significant event in the life of Jesus and in the fulfillment of biblical prophecy.

Question 3 Report
Peter advised Christians to _______as they were sharing Christ's sufferings
Answer Details
The Apostle Peter, in the New Testament of the Bible, advised Christians to rejoice as they were sharing in Christ's sufferings. This advice can be found in 1 Peter 4:13 where it says, "But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed." Peter's message was that Christians should not be discouraged or fearful when they face suffering or persecution because they are not alone in their struggles. Instead, they should be joyful because they are united with Christ and are partakers in his sufferings. Rejoicing in the midst of trials may seem counterintuitive, but Peter understood that suffering produces perseverance, character, and ultimately, hope. By rejoicing in their sufferings, Christians can develop a deeper understanding of God's love and grow in their faith. Therefore, the answer to the question is "Rejoice."
Question 4 Report
"It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it" what was to be divided?
Answer Details
"It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it" refers to a live baby that two women claimed as their own. This story is recorded in the Old Testament book of 1 Kings chapter 3, where King Solomon was faced with the difficult task of determining which of two women was the real mother of a baby. Both women claimed that the baby belonged to them, and Solomon had to decide who was telling the truth. His solution was to propose cutting the baby in half and giving each woman an equal share. The true mother's love for the child was revealed when she begged the king to spare the baby's life and give it to the other woman instead. Solomon then declared that the first woman, who was willing to give up her claim to the child rather than see it harmed, was the true mother. Therefore, the phrase "It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it" refers to the live baby that King Solomon was called upon to judge and which he ultimately saved by revealing the true mother's identity.

Answer Details
The statement "I am the resurrection and the life, he who believes in me, though he dies, yet shall he live" was directed by Jesus to Martha, the sister of Lazarus, after Lazarus had died and was buried. According to the Bible, Lazarus was a friend of Jesus and had become seriously ill. When Jesus arrived, Lazarus had already died and had been in the tomb for four days. Martha and her sister Mary were mourning the loss of their brother, but when Jesus arrived, Martha went out to meet him. During their conversation, Jesus declared that he was the resurrection and the life, and asked Martha if she believed in him. Martha responded by affirming her faith in Jesus and his power to bring her brother back to life. Jesus then went to the tomb, commanded Lazarus to come out, and miraculously raised him from the dead, fulfilling his promise that those who believe in him, even if they die, shall live. Thus, the statement "I am the resurrection and the life, he who believes in me, though he dies, yet shall he live" was a powerful declaration by Jesus of his divinity and his ability to grant eternal life to those who believe in him, even in the face of death.

This enraged the crowd, and they accused him of speaking blasphemous words against Moses, the law, and God.

God instructed Saul to utterly destroy Amalek because its people opposed the Israelites on the way after departing Egypt. In the Old Testament, the Amalekites were a people who attacked the Israelites in the wilderness after they had left Egypt, and continued to harass them throughout their journey.

This command was given to Saul, the first king of Israel, who was expected to carry out God's judgment in obedience to His word. However, Saul failed to fully obey God's instructions, sparing the Amalekite king and some of the spoils of war, which ultimately led to his downfall. Therefore, God's command to destroy the Amalekites was a judgment for their opposition to His chosen people, the Israelites.

"I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities". By this statement, God gave them ______
Answer Details
The statement "I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities" is from the book of Amos in the Old Testament of the Bible. It means that God had taken away the people's food and made them go hungry, resulting in their teeth being clean because they had nothing to eat. In other words, the phrase "cleanness of teeth" is a metaphor for hunger and famine. The people had no food to eat, so their teeth were not being used for chewing, resulting in them being clean. This statement was part of a message from God to the people of Israel, warning them of the consequences of their disobedience and reminding them of His power and authority. Therefore, the answer to the question is "No food to eat."

This event is seen as a symbol of God's protection and care for His people, and a reminder of the consequences of opposing His will. The destruction of the Amalekites also served as a warning to other nations that might consider attacking the Israelites in the future.
Question 24 Report
The essence of St. Paul's teaching on Law and Grace is that___________
Answer Details
The essence of St. Paul's teaching on Law and Grace is that observance of the law is not sufficient for salvation, but it is only through God's grace that Christians can be saved. Paul believed that following the law is important, but it cannot bring salvation because no one can perfectly keep the law. Therefore, it is only through faith in Jesus Christ and the grace of God that one can be redeemed and receive eternal life. However, this does not mean that Christians can continue in sin, but rather they are called to live a life of righteousness, obedience to God's commands, and to work out their salvation with fear and trembling.
Question 25 Report
Peter refuted the mockery of drunkenness of the disciples by referring to the prophecy of________
Answer Details
The correct answer is "Joel." Peter was speaking to the crowd on the day of Pentecost, after the Holy Spirit had come upon the disciples and they were speaking in tongues. Some people in the crowd accused the disciples of being drunk, but Peter explained that this was not the case. Instead, he pointed to the prophecy of Joel, which said that in the last days, God would pour out His Spirit on all people, and they would prophesy and speak in tongues. So, Peter was using the prophecy of Joel to show that the events of that day were not a result of drunkenness, but were the fulfillment of God's promise to pour out His Spirit on all people. This was a powerful way for Peter to refute the accusations against the disciples and to show that what was happening was a work of God, not the result of any human effort. In summary, Peter referenced the prophecy of Joel to show that the events of that day were a fulfillment of God's promise and not a result of drunkenness.

Answer Details
When Ezekiel was called, he was shown a scroll on which were written words of lamentations, mourning, and woe. Ezekiel was a prophet in the Bible who received a calling from God to prophesy to the exiled Israelites in Babylon. In the book of Ezekiel, it is written that when he was called, he saw a vision of God's glory and heard a voice speaking to him. The voice instructed him to eat a scroll, which he did. The scroll contained words of lamentation, mourning, and woe. These words are associated with the judgment that God was bringing upon Israel for their disobedience and idolatry. The words of lamentation expressed sorrow over the destruction that was coming, the words of mourning expressed grief over the loss of life that would occur, and the words of woe expressed warning of the impending disaster. Thus, the scroll that Ezekiel saw and ate symbolized the message of judgment that he was to deliver to the exiled Israelites, calling them to repent and turn back to God before it was too late.

Herod Agrippa persecuted Peter primarily to_____
Answer Details
Herod Agrippa persecuted Peter primarily "to please the Jews." Herod Agrippa was a king of Judea who was known for his persecution of the early Christians, including the apostle Peter. According to the book of Acts in the New Testament, Herod arrested Peter and put him in prison with the intention of putting him on trial before the Jewish people. Herod's persecution of Peter was primarily motivated by his desire to appease the Jewish leaders and people, who were hostile towards the message of Jesus and the early Christian church. By putting Peter on trial and attempting to silence the spread of the gospel, Herod was trying to maintain his power and popularity among the Jewish people. In the end, however, Peter was miraculously freed from prison and continued to preach the gospel, despite Herod's efforts to stop him. This event serves as a testament to the power of God and the resilience of the early Christian church in the face of persecution.

Answer Details
The statement "Do not be afraid; for I know what you seek, Jesus who was crucified..." was made by an angel to Mary Magdalene and the other Mary (the mother of James) who had come to Jesus' tomb on the morning of his resurrection. According to the Bible, after Jesus was crucified and buried, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to the tomb to anoint his body with spices. When they arrived, there was a great earthquake and an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, rolled back the stone from the tomb, and sat on it. The guards who were watching the tomb were terrified and became like dead men. The angel then spoke to the women, saying "Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified. He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying" (Matthew 28:5-6). The women were overjoyed at the news and hurried to tell the disciples, who later saw Jesus alive and were convinced of his resurrection. Thus, the statement "Do not be afraid; for I know what you seek, Jesus who was crucified..." was a message of comfort and assurance from the angel to Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, confirming the fulfillment of Jesus' promise to rise from the dead and providing them with evidence of his resurrection.
