Answer Details
When Jonah passed the message "Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned" to the people of Nineveh, they did not turn deaf ears. Instead, they believed Jonah's message and took it seriously.

Christians should keep away from any brother __________ according to Paul.
Answer Details
Paul, a disciple of Jesus and an apostle, wrote letters to early Christian communities that are now part of the New Testament in the Bible. In one of his letters, he advised Christians to avoid associating with a brother who is "living in idleness". This means to avoid being close friends with someone who is lazy and not working to support themselves. Paul believed that it was important for each person to contribute to society and not be a burden on others. He encouraged Christians to live responsible and productive lives and to avoid those who do not follow this principle.

Who was responsible for the death of Uriah?
Answer Details
The death of Uriah is recorded in the Bible in 2 Samuel 11. Uriah was a loyal soldier in King David's army, and David had an affair with Uriah's wife, Bathsheba. When Bathsheba became pregnant, David tried to cover up his sin by bringing Uriah back from the front lines of battle and encouraging him to go home and spend time with his wife. But Uriah, a committed soldier, refused to enjoy the comforts of home while his comrades were still fighting. Desperate to cover up his adultery and the impending scandal, David ordered his general, Joab, to put Uriah in a position where he would be killed in battle. Joab carried out David's orders, and Uriah died in battle. So, the person responsible for the death of Uriah was King David, who gave the orders to have Uriah placed in harm's way, and his general, Joab, who carried out those orders.

Answer Details
The laws given by Moses to the children of Israel in Sinai have striking similarities with the Code of Hammurabi. The Code of Hammurabi is a set of ancient Babylonian laws created by King Hammurabi around 1754 BCE. These laws were inscribed on a large stele and included regulations for criminal and civil matters, as well as rules for commerce, property, and family law. Many of the laws given by Moses in Sinai, which are recorded in the Hebrew Bible, show striking similarities to the Code of Hammurabi. For example, both sets of laws include rules for restitution, compensation, and punishment for crimes such as theft, murder, and false witness. Additionally, both the Code of Hammurabi and the laws given by Moses contain provisions for protecting the rights of women, children, and slaves. They also both reflect the cultural values and beliefs of their respective societies. Overall, while there are some differences between the two legal codes, the similarities suggest that the laws given by Moses may have been influenced by earlier legal traditions, such as the Code of Hammurabi.

This means that those who have already died and those who are still alive will all come back to life and be with Jesus forever. This event is a central belief in Christianity and is seen as a time of judgment and reward for people's actions during their lives.

Question 10 Report
Paul encouraged Philemon to receive Onesimus as ______.
Answer Details
Paul encouraged Philemon to receive Onesimus as a "brother." This means that Paul was asking Philemon to treat Onesimus not just as a slave, but as a fellow member of the Christian community and as a fellow believer in Christ. In other words, Paul was asking Philemon to show love and forgiveness to Onesimus and to see him as an equal in the eyes of God. This was a significant request at the time, as slavery was a widespread practice and slaves were often treated as property, rather than as human beings with dignity and worth. By asking Philemon to receive Onesimus as a "brother," Paul was challenging the cultural norms of the day and promoting a message of equality and love in the Christian community.
Question 11 Report

Answer Details
The miracle performed by Jesus which is recorded in all four gospels is the Feeding of the Five thousand.

He blessed the food and broke it into pieces, and his disciples distributed it to the crowd. Despite the fact that there was not enough food to feed so many people, everyone was able to eat their fill, and there were even twelve baskets of food left over. This miracle is significant because it demonstrates Jesus' power to provide for and nourish his followers, both physically and spiritually.
Question 12 Report

Answer Details
According to James, the man who prays to God and at the same time doubts is "double-minded". This means that the person is not fully committed to their faith or belief in God, and is also entertaining thoughts or feelings of doubt and uncertainty. Being double-minded can lead to indecision and inconsistency in one's actions, as the person may vacillate between trusting in God and relying on their own understanding or worldly knowledge. James suggests that such a person is unstable and unlikely to receive anything from God because their faith is not steadfast. Therefore, in order to receive answers to prayers, James encourages believers to have unwavering faith and to trust in God wholeheartedly without doubting.

Question 17 Report
'But let justice roll down like waters and _______like an overflowing stream'
Answer Details
The missing word in the phrase is "righteousness." This phrase is a quotation from the Book of Amos in the Old Testament of the Bible. In this passage, the prophet Amos is calling for justice and righteousness to be established in society, so that all people can be treated fairly and with equity. The metaphor of water is used to convey the idea that justice and righteousness should flow continuously and abundantly, like the waters of a river or a stream. It should not be a mere trickle or a temporary solution, but rather a constant and overwhelming force that cleanses and purifies society. Thus, the phrase "Let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an overflowing stream" is a powerful call to action for people to work towards creating a more just and equitable society, where everyone is treated with fairness and dignity.
Question 18 Report
Those who keep all the laws but fail at one are ________.
Answer Details
Those who keep all the laws but fail at one are guilty of all. This concept comes from the Bible, specifically James 2:10, which states: "For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it." The idea behind this statement is that the law is a unified whole, and breaking any part of it is a violation of the entire law. It's not a matter of tallying up individual offenses and weighing them against good deeds, but rather acknowledging that even one transgression is enough to make someone a lawbreaker. This principle has implications for religious and ethical frameworks that emphasize the importance of living a virtuous life. It suggests that being "good" in most areas but falling short in others is not enough, and that true moral excellence requires consistent adherence to all principles and standards.

According to the biblical account, Abraham obediently took Isaac to Moriah and was ready to sacrifice him, but at the last moment, an angel of the Lord intervened and stopped him. Instead, a ram was offered as a sacrifice in Isaac's place. The other options - Sinai, Bethel, and Tabor - are also places mentioned in the Bible, but they are not specifically associated with the story of Abraham and Isaac. Sinai is the mountain in the desert where Moses received the Ten Commandments from God. Bethel is a place where Jacob had a vision of a ladder leading to heaven. Tabor is a mountain where Jesus was transfigured and became radiant with divine light, as described in the New Testament.

Answer Details
The men who said, "If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace," were Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and they were thrown into the furnace by King Nebuchadnezzar. King Nebuchadnezzar had made a golden statue and commanded that everyone in his kingdom worship it.

Answer Details
The prophecy about speaking in tongues is mentioned in the book of Joel in the Bible. In Joel 2:28, it is written "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions." This verse is often understood as a prophecy about the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, which is believed by Christians to have happened on the day of Pentecost, as described in the book of Acts in the New Testament. On that day, the apostles and other followers of Jesus were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as a sign of God's power and presence among them. In this way, the book of Joel is seen as foretelling the events of Pentecost, and the speaking in tongues is understood as a fulfillment of the prophecy in Joel 2:28.

Answer Details
According to Paul's Epistle to the Galatians, as long as an heir is a child, he is under guardians and trustees. This means that when a child is too young to take care of themselves and their inheritance, they need someone to look after them and manage their affairs on their behalf. These people are responsible for protecting the child's interests until they are old enough to do so themselves. In the same way, Paul uses this analogy to explain that before Christ came, people were like children who needed the law to guide and protect them. However, now that Christ has come, they no longer need the law as they have grown up and can live by faith. So, the guardians and trustees in the analogy represent the law, and the child represents the people who lived under it before Christ.
Question 37 Report
The complaints of the ______ led to the appointment of the deacons in the early church.
Answer Details
The complaints of the Hellenists led to the appointment of the deacons in the early church. In the early days of Christianity, there were two groups of Jewish believers: the Hebraic Jews and the Hellenistic Jews. The Hebraic Jews spoke Aramaic and had a more traditional Jewish background, while the Hellenistic Jews spoke Greek and had been influenced by Greek culture. There were complaints from the Hellenistic Jews that their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution of food. This led to a dispute among the believers, which the apostles resolved by appointing seven men to serve as deacons. These deacons were responsible for ensuring that the needs of all believers were being met, including the Hellenistic widows. This event is recorded in the New Testament book of Acts, chapter 6, and it marks the beginning of the formal organization of the early Christian church. The appointment of the deacons was an important step in ensuring that all believers were cared for and that the church could grow and thrive.

Answer Details
The statement "But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian..." was made by Paul in his letter to the Galatians. In this statement, Paul is referring to the Old Testament law, which he calls a "custodian" or "tutor" that was in place until the coming of Jesus Christ. Paul's argument in the letter to the Galatians is that faith in Jesus Christ is the way to be justified or made right with God, rather than following the works of the law. He is explaining that the law served as a temporary guide or guardian to point people toward Christ, but now that Christ has come and faith in Him is available, the law is no longer needed as a custodian. In simpler terms, Paul is saying that following the Old Testament law was a temporary measure to guide people towards faith in Christ. But now that Christ has come, we no longer need to rely on the law as a guide or guardian, because faith in Christ is enough to justify us before God.

In Paul's arrangement of spiritual gifts, _________ was the last item.
Answer Details
In Paul's arrangement of spiritual gifts, "Diversity of tongues" was the last item. This means that according to Paul's teachings in 1 Corinthians 12, speaking in tongues was considered a less important gift compared to others such as prophecy, teaching, and helping others. Paul believed that speaking in tongues was a gift that should be used sparingly and in the context of a worship service where interpretation was available. He emphasized that the purpose of all spiritual gifts was to build up the church and serve others, rather than to bring attention or glory to oneself. Overall, Paul's teachings on spiritual gifts emphasized the importance of unity and mutual dependence among believers, as each person's gift was necessary for the health and growth of the community as a whole.

Answer Details
The answer is Darius. Daniel was a prophet in the Bible who lived during the Babylonian captivity. He was known for his wisdom and ability to interpret dreams. However, some of the other officials in the king's court were jealous of him and plotted against him. They convinced King Darius to pass a law that forbid anyone from praying to any god or man except for the king himself. Despite the new law, Daniel continued to pray to God as he had always done. When the officials found out, they reported him to the king. Even though Darius liked Daniel, he was forced to enforce the law he had signed. As punishment for breaking the law, Daniel was thrown into a den of lions. However, God protected Daniel and he was unharmed by the lions. The next morning, Darius rushed to the lion's den to see if Daniel was still alive. To his relief, Daniel emerged from the den unharmed. This experience led Darius to proclaim that the God of Daniel was the one true God, and he passed a new law allowing people to worship Him.
