Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

Jesus healed the lame man who had been sick for thirty-eight years at?
Maelezo ya Majibu
Jesus healed the lame man who had been sick for thirty-eight years at the pool of Bethesda in Jerusalem. This is recorded in the book of John, chapter 5. In this story, Jesus encounters a man who had been an invalid for a long time and was unable to walk. He asked the man if he wanted to be healed, and when the man said yes, Jesus commanded him to get up, pick up his mat, and walk. The man was instantly healed and did as Jesus commanded. This event caused controversy because it was the Sabbath, and the religious leaders accused Jesus of breaking the Sabbath law by healing the man on that day. However, Jesus defended himself by saying that he was doing the work of his Father. This story is an example of Jesus' compassion and power to heal those who were sick and in need of physical and spiritual healing.

Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

Elijah fed on _____ after declaring drought upon the land of Israel
Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

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.

Peter advised Christians to _______as they were sharing Christ's sufferings
Maelezo ya Majibu
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."

Maelezo ya Majibu

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.

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.

Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

"It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it" what was to be divided?
Maelezo ya Majibu
"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.

Maelezo ya Majibu
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.

Through faith in Jesus, people can be reconciled to God and become part of the new covenant community.
