God instructed Saul to utterly destroy Amalek because___________
Antwortdetails
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. God's command to destroy the Amalekites was a punishment for their unprovoked aggression and hostility towards Israel. 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.

Frage 5 Bericht
St Paul's condition for the attainment of justification is by ______?
Antwortdetails
St. Paul's condition for the attainment of justification is by faith in the Resurrected Jesus. In several of his letters in the New Testament, Paul wrote about the concept of justification, which is the idea that through faith in Jesus Christ, believers are made right with God and can have eternal life. According to Paul, this justification is not something that can be earned by following the law or by doing good works. Rather, it is a gift from God that comes through faith in Jesus Christ. In his letter to the Romans, Paul wrote, "For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law" (Romans 3:28). He also wrote, "But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe" (Romans 3:21-22). According to Paul, faith in the Resurrected Jesus is the only condition for justification. This faith involves believing that Jesus Christ died for our sins and was raised from the dead, and that through our faith in him, we can be made right with God. While obedience to the law and loving our Christian brethren are certainly important, they are not the basis for our justification. Instead, it is through our faith in Jesus Christ that we receive the gift of eternal life and are made right with God.

Antwortdetails
St James teaching on impartiality centers on the principle of loving our neighbours as ourselves in all situations. In his letter, he emphasizes the importance of treating everyone equally, regardless of their social status, wealth, or any other distinguishing factor. He urges Christians not to show favoritism to the rich over the poor, and not to judge people based on outward appearances. According to St James, impartiality is an essential aspect of Christian living and is demonstrated by acts of kindness, generosity, and compassion towards others. Christians are called to show love to their neighbors, not only in words but also in deeds, and to actively seek out opportunities to serve and bless others. Therefore, St James teaches that Christians should love and care for all people, regardless of their background or circumstances, and that true faith is demonstrated by living out this principle of impartiality in our daily lives.

Antwortdetails
According to Jeremiah, the Lord's new covenant will be made with the "house of Israel and the house of Judah." The prophet Jeremiah lived during a time when the kingdom of Israel was divided into two parts, the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah. In Jeremiah 31:31-34, he speaks of a new covenant that the Lord will make with the people of Israel and Judah, in which He promises to write His laws on their hearts and to be their God. This new covenant is seen as a fulfillment of the promises made by God to His people and as a renewal of the relationship between God and His people. It is also seen as a symbol of the restoration of the unity of the people of Israel and Judah and the reunification of the kingdom. In the New Testament, Christians believe that this new covenant was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who through His death and resurrection established a new covenant between God and humanity. Through faith in Jesus, people can be reconciled to God and become part of the new covenant community.
Frage 14 Bericht
Herod Agrippa persecuted Peter primarily to_____
Antwortdetails
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.
Frage 15 Bericht

Antwortdetails
In Matthew's account, John the Baptist's immediate reaction when Jesus came to be baptized was to ask that Jesus should rather baptize him. John the Baptist recognized Jesus as the Son of God and knew that he was not worthy to baptize Him. In Matthew 3:14-15, it says, "But John tried to deter him, saying, 'I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?' Jesus replied, 'Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.'" By asking Jesus to baptize him instead, John was acknowledging the authority of Jesus and the superiority of His divine status. Jesus' response also shows that it was necessary for Him to be baptized to fulfill all righteousness, which was the plan of God. Therefore, John's immediate reaction was to recognize and submit to Jesus' authority and to fulfill God's plan for righteousness.

Antwortdetails
Jeremiah prophesied God's punishment of the Israelites because they had compromised their worship and turned away from God. The Israelites had abandoned their faith and turned to idolatry, worshiping false gods and engaging in other sinful practices. This behavior was in direct violation of God's commands, and Jeremiah warned the people that their disobedience would lead to punishment and exile. In addition, the Israelites had also trampled on the needy and committed other injustices, which further angered God and contributed to his decision to punish them. However, it was primarily their abandonment of true worship that led to Jeremiah's prophesies of punishment.

Antwortdetails
St. Paul's epistle to the Philippians on "Christian Giving" indicated his reception of gifts from them through Epaphroditus. In his letter to the Philippians, Paul wrote about the importance of Christian giving and thanked the Philippians for their generosity in supporting his ministry. He mentioned that they had sent him gifts on several occasions, and he expressed his gratitude for their kindness. Paul specifically mentions in Philippians 4:18 that the Philippians' gifts were delivered to him by Epaphroditus, who was a member of the Philippian church and who had been sent by the Philippians to bring their gifts to Paul while he was in prison. In Philippians 2:25-30, Paul also spoke highly of Epaphroditus and praised him for his service to the church. Through these passages, it is clear that the gifts from the Philippians were delivered to Paul by Epaphroditus, who was a trusted member of the Philippian church and who had been sent specifically to deliver the gifts to Paul while he was in prison. This shows the close relationship between Paul and the Philippians and their commitment to supporting one another in their shared mission to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Frage 19 Bericht

Antwortdetails
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.
Frage 20 Bericht

Antwortdetails
The name "Jezreel" represents the punishment to come unto the royal house. In the Old Testament, Jezreel was a city in Israel that became associated with God's judgment upon the ruling family of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel, due to their wickedness and disobedience. The prophet Hosea also named his son "Jezreel" as a symbolic act to indicate that God would soon punish the royal house of Israel for their sins, just as He had punished the house of Ahab in Jezreel. Therefore, the name "Jezreel" signifies divine judgment and punishment.

"For the men in the ship knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the Lord". The person referred to in this statement is________
Antwortdetails
The person referred to in the statement is Jonah. The statement is a reference to the Biblical story of Jonah, who was a prophet in ancient Israel. In the story, Jonah was commanded by God to go to the city of Nineveh to preach against its wickedness. However, Jonah didn't want to do this and instead decided to flee on a ship to Tarshish. During the journey, a great storm arose, and the men on the ship became fearful for their lives. They eventually realized that Jonah was the cause of the storm because he was running away from God's command, and they threw him overboard to appease God. Jonah was then swallowed by a great fish, and after three days and nights, he was vomited onto the shore by the fish. Therefore, the phrase "For the men in the ship knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the Lord" refers to the realization of the sailors that Jonah was trying to escape from God's will, which caused the storm to come upon them.

Frage 25 Bericht
The essence of St. Paul's teaching on Law and Grace is that___________
Antwortdetails
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.

Frage 27 Bericht
"I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities". By this statement, God gave them ______
Antwortdetails
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."

By reading and meditating on the Scriptures, believers can gain a deeper understanding of God's will and purpose for their lives. Additionally, Paul encourages believers to pray for the grace of God, which is the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit that enables them to live a holy and righteous life. Finally, while Paul does not explicitly mention baptism, he emphasizes the importance of repentance and turning away from sin as part of the process of entering into a new life in Christ.
Frage 29 Bericht
The triumphal entry was in fulfilment of the prophecy of_______
Antwortdetails
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.
Frage 30 Bericht
For how long did the Lord supply the children of Israel with manna in the wilderness?
Antwortdetails
The correct answer is: Forty years. According to the Bible, after the children of Israel were freed from slavery in Egypt, they wandered in the wilderness for forty years before entering the Promised Land. During this time, the Lord provided them with food in the form of a substance called manna, which was described as being like coriander seed and tasting like honey (Exodus 16:31). The manna appeared on the ground each morning, and the Israelites were instructed to gather enough for their daily needs, with the exception of the day before the Sabbath, when they were to gather enough for two days (Exodus 16:4-5). The manna continued to appear every day for the entire forty-year period, until the Israelites reached the border of the Promised Land and were able to eat from the produce of the land (Joshua 5:12). Therefore, the correct answer to the question is: Forty years. The other options do not accurately reflect the length of time that the Lord supplied the Israelites with manna in the wilderness.
Frage 31 Bericht
Peter advised Christians to _______as they were sharing Christ's sufferings
Antwortdetails
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."

He encourages believers to live in a way that promotes the common good and to be responsible members of their communities. This includes paying taxes, serving in public office, and actively participating in civic life. St. Peter's teaching on Good Citizenship recognizes the importance of contributing positively to society and promoting the well-being of others, which aligns with the broader Christian value of loving one's neighbor as oneself.
Frage 36 Bericht
The model example in St. Paul teaching on humility is ______
Antwortdetails
The model example in St. Paul's teaching on humility is Jesus Christ. In Philippians 2:5-8, Paul wrote about the importance of humility and the example that Jesus Christ set for us. He urged his readers to have the same attitude that Christ had, which involved putting the needs of others before our own and serving them with humility and love. Paul described Jesus as one who, "being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross!" (Philippians 2:6-8). This passage shows that Jesus, who was fully God, willingly took on human form and became a servant, putting the needs of others before his own. He humbled himself by submitting to death on a cross, even though he had the power to save himself. In doing so, Jesus set the ultimate example of humility and self-sacrifice, which serves as a model for all Christians to follow. Therefore, St. Paul's teaching on humility is centered around the example of Jesus Christ, who showed us the ultimate act of humility and selflessness through his life, death, and resurrection.
Frage 37 Bericht
"It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it" what was to be divided?
Antwortdetails
"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.
Frage 38 Bericht

He used the example of the Macedonian churches, who despite being in extreme poverty, had given generously to the same cause. Therefore, he urged the Corinthians to follow their example and give generously as well. So, St. Paul had already boasted to the Macedonians about the Corinthians' eagerness to give, and for this reason, he sent a reminder letter to the Corinthians on Christian giving.
