The accusation of blasphemy against Moses, the law and God was levied against _______
Antwoorddetails
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.

St. Paul had already boasted to the ______and for this reason he sent a reminder letter to the ______ on Christian giving
Antwoorddetails
The correct answer is: Macedonians, Corinthians. In the Bible, specifically in 2 Corinthians 8-9, the apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians to remind them about their previous commitment to give to the collection for the poor in Jerusalem. 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.

Antwoorddetails
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.

Antwoorddetails
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.

God instructed Saul to utterly destroy Amalek because_____
Antwoorddetails
God instructed Saul to utterly destroy Amalek because "its people opposed the Israelites on the way, after departing Egypt." In the book of Exodus, it is mentioned that the Amalekites attacked the Israelites as they journeyed through the wilderness after leaving Egypt. God saw this act of aggression as a direct attack on His chosen people and instructed Saul, who was the king of Israel at the time, to completely destroy the Amalekites and all their possessions as a form of punishment. 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.

The model example in St. Paul teaching on humility is ______
Antwoorddetails
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.

The Egyptians encamped at ____ when they pursued the Israelites
Antwoorddetails
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.

One of the following is not a quality of good discipleship________
Antwoorddetails
"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.
Vraag 14 Verslag
"I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities". By this statement, God gave them ______
Antwoorddetails
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."
Vraag 15 Verslag
Elijah fed on _____ after declaring drought upon the land of Israel
Antwoorddetails
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.

Vraag 17 Verslag
Herod Agrippa persecuted Peter primarily to_____
Antwoorddetails
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.

The core of St Paul's advice on dignity of Labour is that
Antwoorddetails
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.

Antwoorddetails
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.

Antwoorddetails
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.

Which of the following was Pilate's question to Jesus at his trial?
Antwoorddetails
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.

Antwoorddetails
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.

The essence of St. Paul's teaching on Law and Grace is that___________
Antwoorddetails
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.

Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 38 Verslag
Peter advised Christians to _______as they were sharing Christ's sufferings
Antwoorddetails
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."
Vraag 39 Verslag

St. Paul's teaching on spiritual gifts was directed to the Corinthians. In 1 Corinthians chapters 12-14, Paul discusses spiritual gifts and how they should be used in the church.

Paul addresses various spiritual gifts, such as prophecy, healing, and tongues, and provides guidance on their use in the church. He also emphasizes the importance of love as the ultimate motivation behind the use of spiritual gifts. Therefore, Paul's teaching on spiritual gifts was specifically directed to the Corinthian church, and his guidance on their use continues to be relevant to Christians today.
