In Matthew's account, John the Baptist's immediate reaction when Jesus came to be baptized was to_______
Answer Details
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.
Question 2 Report
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.

Question 7 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 8 Report
The Egyptians encamped at ____ when they pursued the Israelites
Answer Details
The Egyptians encamped at Pi-ha-hi-roth when they pursued the Israelites. To understand this, we need to go back to the story of the Exodus in the Bible. According to the book of Exodus, the Israelites were slaves in Egypt and God chose Moses to lead them out of slavery and into the promised land. After a series of plagues and miracles, the Pharaoh finally let the Israelites go. However, soon after leaving Egypt, the Pharaoh changed his mind and pursued the Israelites with his army. The Israelites were trapped between the pursuing army and the Red Sea, but God miraculously parted the sea and allowed the Israelites to pass through safely. After the Israelites had crossed the Red Sea, the pursuing Egyptian army followed them into the sea, but God caused the waters to return and drown the army. The Bible says that the Egyptians encamped at Pi-ha-hi-roth before pursuing the Israelites, so that is where they were when they were drowned in the Red Sea.
Question 9 Report
Elijah fed on _____ after declaring drought upon the land of Israel
Answer Details
The correct answer is: Bread, meat, and water. According to the Bible, Elijah was a prophet who declared a drought upon the land of Israel as a result of the people's disobedience to God. During this time, Elijah was fed by ravens who brought him bread and meat in the morning and evening, and he drank from a nearby brook (1 Kings 17:2-6). Later on, when the brook dried up due to the drought, God instructed Elijah to go to a town called Zarephath, where a widow would provide for him. When Elijah found the widow, he asked her for some water and a piece of bread. The widow explained that she only had a handful of flour and a little oil, and that she was preparing to use them to make a final meal for herself and her son before they died of starvation. Despite this, Elijah instructed the widow to make him a small cake of bread with the flour and oil, and to then make a meal for herself and her son. The widow obeyed, and miraculously, her supply of flour and oil did not run out until the drought ended and rain fell upon the land (1 Kings 17:8-16). Therefore, the correct answer to the question is: Bread, meat, and water, as these are the foods that Elijah ate after declaring the drought upon the land of Israel. The other options do not accurately reflect the foods that Elijah ate during this time.

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.

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.

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.

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.

"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________
Answer Details
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.

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.

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.
