Détails de la réponse
St. Paul in 'Law and Grace' explains that although man was condemned due to sin, he has been redeemed through the grace of God. This means that even though we have failed to live up to God's standards, God has extended his unmerited favor and love towards us through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross. This redemption is not based on our own efforts or good works, but solely on the grace of God, which is given to us freely by faith in Jesus Christ. So, in simple terms, St. Paul is saying that we are saved by the grace of God and not by our own merit or good works.

Détails de la réponse
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.

St James teaching on impartiality centers on________
Détails de la réponse
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.

Détails de la réponse
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.

Question 9 Rapport
"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________
Détails de la réponse
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.
Question 10 Rapport

Détails de la réponse
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.

The triumphal entry was in fulfilment of the prophecy of_______
Détails de la réponse
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 13 Rapport
Which of the following was Pilate's question to Jesus at his trial?
Détails de la réponse
Pilate's question to Jesus at his trial was "Are you the king of the Jews?" Pilate was the Roman governor of Judea who presided over the trial of Jesus. During the trial, Pilate asked Jesus if He was the king of the Jews, which was a political charge brought against Him by the religious leaders. This question was significant because it put Jesus in a difficult position, as claiming to be the king of the Jews would be seen as a challenge to the authority of the Roman Empire. In response to Pilate's question, Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world." This answer conveyed that Jesus was not a political or military leader, but rather a spiritual leader who came to offer salvation and eternal life to all who would believe in Him.

Détails de la réponse
Josiah sent Hilkiah the priest to inquire of the Lord from Huldah. King Josiah of Judah was concerned about the spiritual state of his kingdom, and so he sent Hilkiah to seek guidance from the prophetess Huldah. Huldah was a woman known for her spiritual insight and wisdom, and Josiah believed that she could provide him with the guidance he needed. When Hilkiah visited Huldah, she confirmed that the kingdom was indeed in a state of spiritual decline, but she also delivered a message of hope, telling Josiah that if he repented and turned back to the Lord, the Lord would spare the kingdom from the judgment it deserved. This story is a reminder of the importance of seeking guidance from God, and of the power of repentance and faith to bring about renewal and restoration.
Question 19 Rapport
One of the most significant lessons from the emergence of Deborah as a leader is that_________
Détails de la réponse
One of the most significant lessons from the emergence of Deborah as a leader is that gender difference isn't a limitation to leadership. Deborah was a prophetess and judge who led the Israelites during a time of oppression by the Canaanites. Despite living in a patriarchal society where men were typically the leaders, Deborah's wisdom and courage were recognized and respected by both men and women. Her leadership not only resulted in the defeat of their enemies but also brought peace to the land for forty years. Therefore, the lesson from Deborah's emergence as a leader is that one's gender should not be a limiting factor in leadership. What matters most is one's ability, character, and commitment to lead effectively.
Question 20 Rapport
"It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it" what was to be divided?
Détails de la réponse
"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.

Jehoiachin was the son of King Jehoiakim and the grandson of King Josiah. He became king of Judah at the age of 18 and reigned for only three months before he surrendered to Nebuchadnezzar and was taken captive to Babylon along with many of the people of Judah. During the invasion, Nebuchadnezzar looted the temple in Jerusalem, taking away many of its treasures, including the golden vessels that had been used in worship. He also destroyed the temple and the city walls, and exiled many of the people of Judah to Babylon, leading to a period of exile for the Jewish people.

Détails de la réponse
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.
Question 24 Rapport

Détails de la réponse
"Exuberance" is not a necessary quality of good discipleship. Good discipleship is characterized by qualities such as self-denial, where one is willing to give up their own interests and desires for the sake of following their spiritual leader or beliefs. Total commitment means being fully devoted and dedicated to the cause. However, exuberance refers to excessive excitement and enthusiasm, which is not necessarily a requirement for good discipleship. It is possible to be a good disciple without being overly energetic and enthusiastic. What is more important is a person's actions and behaviors, which should align with the principles and values of their faith.

Question 27 Rapport
Peter refuted the mockery of drunkenness of the disciples by referring to the prophecy of________
Détails de la réponse
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.

For how long did the Lord supply the children of Israel with manna in the wilderness?
Détails de la réponse
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.

Détails de la réponse
Paul taught that spiritual gifts in all their varieties emanate from the one Spirit of God. In 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, Paul emphasizes that the gifts of the Spirit come from the same source, which is God. He also notes that there are different varieties of gifts, but they all come from the same Spirit. The gifts are given for the common good of the church, to build up the body of Christ. Paul emphasizes that no one gift is more important than another and that they are all necessary for the functioning of the church as a whole. He stresses the unity of the body of Christ and how each member of the church has a unique role to play. Therefore, Paul's teaching emphasizes that spiritual gifts come from the one Spirit of God and are given for the benefit of the entire church, reflecting God's diversity and unity.

Détails de la réponse
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.

Détails de la réponse
The core of St. Paul's advice on the dignity of labor is that Christians should be productive and work diligently in whatever occupation they have, as if they are working for the Lord. In the Bible, St. Paul emphasizes the importance of work and the need to avoid idleness. He encourages Christians to work hard, not just to support themselves, but also to support others who may be in need. St. Paul believed that labor was a way to honor God and to demonstrate love for others. In his letter to the Colossians, St. Paul wrote: "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving" (Colossians 3:23-24). St. Paul also worked hard himself, despite facing many challenges and difficulties, and encouraged others to follow his example. He wrote, "We were not idle when we were with you, nor did we eat anyone's food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you" (2 Thessalonians 3:7-9). Thus, the core of St. Paul's advice on the dignity of labor is that Christians should work hard and be productive in their occupations, not just to support themselves, but also to serve others and honor God.

The accusation of blasphemy against Moses, the law and God was levied against _______
Détails de la réponse
The accusation of blasphemy against Moses, the law and God was levied against Stephen. In the book of Acts in the New Testament of the Bible, Stephen was a man full of faith and wisdom who was chosen as one of the seven deacons to serve the needs of the community of believers in Jerusalem. However, he was also known for preaching about Jesus and performing miracles, which led to some people becoming jealous and angry with him. During a debate with some of these people, Stephen made a long speech in which he recounted the history of the Israelites and their relationship with God. He criticized the religious leaders for not following God's laws and for rejecting Jesus as the Messiah. This enraged the crowd, and they accused him of speaking blasphemous words against Moses, the law, and God. As a result of these accusations, Stephen was arrested and brought before the Jewish high council, where he continued to defend his beliefs. Eventually, he was stoned to death, becoming the first Christian martyr.

According to Jeremiah, the Lord's new covenant will be made with the house of ... and the house of__________
Détails de la réponse
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.
Question 39 Rapport
Peter advised Christians to _______as they were sharing Christ's sufferings
Détails de la réponse
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."
