Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This is based on the belief that Jesus was with God in the beginning and helped to create the universe (John 1:1-5).

Answer: Word

John 1:1-5 state that in the beginning (an allusion to Genesis 1), the Word was *with* God and the Word *was* God. The verses go on to say that God created everything through the Word. According to traditional Trinitarian Christianity, there is one God, but He consists of three persons, the Father, the Word (or the Son), and the Holy Spirit.

By claiming that Jesus was the Word who created everything, John seems to link Jesus with passages like the following:

Genesis 1:3, NASB:
"Then God said, 'Let there be light', and there was light."

Genesis 1:24:
"Then God said, 'Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind, and it was so."

As a Trinitarian myself, I would further paraphrase John 1:1 by saying: In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God [the Father and the Holy Spirit], and the Word was God [the Son].

Revelation 19:13 also includes the concept that Jesus is the Word of God.
2. The angel Gabriel told Mary that Jesus would be called it (Luke 1:35).

Answer: Son of God

The New Testament clearly states that Jesus is the Son of God. Some translations of the Bible call Jesus God's "begotten" Son (John 3:16) and then say that Jesus was "conceived" in Mary by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1).

With semantics like those, it can be tempting to view God as the father, Mary as the mother, and Jesus as the child, like in an ordinary family, in the eyes of mere human understanding. But the Bible doesn't really say that. Nowhere does the Bible say that God married the young, virgin Mary and God forbid (pun intended) that He would have some sort of affair with her to produce His Son. In fact, Mary was already legally married to Joseph when Gabriel told her that she would have the Son of God. I think I agree with one of my friends when he says, "God isn't the literal Father of the Son. They have a Father-Son-like relationship."

Most Christians believe that Jesus always existed--in fact, they would most likely claim that Jesus created His own mother. See Proverbs 30:4 for more details.
3. Jesus used this for Himself a lot. It is also a Messianic term (Daniel 7:13).

Answer: Son of Man

The New Testament states that Jesus is both the Son of God and the Son of Man. Fundamentalist or evangelical Christians believe that Jesus is fully God and fully man at the same time. As John 1:14 proclaims, the Word, who was God, became flesh and therefore lived as a human man.

There are many verses in the New Testament in which Jesus calls Himself the Son of Man. Only one example is Matthew 8:20, in which Jesus said that the Son of Man had no place to lay His head.

In Daniel 7:13, the prophet Daniel said that he saw a Son of Man coming with clouds of Heaven and then this man was presented in front of God, the Ancient of Days. Christians believe that this was a prophecy of Jesus and His Heavenly Father.
4. It is based on the belief that Jesus was the Messiah, a descendant of a king (Matthew 1; Luke 3).

Answer: Son of David

According to Isaiah 11:1, the Messiah would be from the branch or stem of Jesse. Jesse was King David's father.

There are several times in the New Testament where Jesus is called the Son of David. This means that He was a descendant of David. The genealogies of Christ in Matthew 1 and Luke 3 are vastly different from each other, but they both state that Jesus descended from David. The genealogies' differences have led many scholars to conclude that Matthew 1 traces it through Joseph, Christ's legal father, while Luke 3 traces it through His mother, Mary. It seems that Joseph was related to David's son Solomon and Mary descended from David's son Nathan!
5. It means "Master" and believers call Jesus this throughout the New Testament (for example, Romans 5:1).

Answer: Lord

The word lord is derived from the Greek word "kurios", which means "master". The word itself doesn't have to be used in a religious context, but in the New Testament, there are many times where people call Jesus "Lord" (notice the capital letter).

Romans 5:1
"Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ . . ."

In the Old Testament, LORD is often in all caps. This is an English replacement for His name, YHWH. There are apparently other Hebrew names for God, including Elohim and Adonai. According to GotQuestions.org, when English translations use "God", they usually mean Elohim. When "Lord God" is used, they are replacements for Adonai YHWH.
6. Jesus declared Himself this when He said that those who believe in Him will never be hungry (John 6:35).

Answer: Bread of Life

Jesus calls Himself the Bread of Life two times, in John 6:35 and John 6:48. He also says in John 6:51 that He is the Living Bread that came out of Heaven.

Jesus used a metaphor, by stating that if people eat of His flesh, the bread, then they won't go hungry and they will live forever. He also alluded to the manna out of Heaven that the LORD gave the Israelites to eat in the wilderness. See Dueteronomy 8:16 and Psalms 78:24.
7. Isaiah uses it for the Messiah, a child born to have a government on His shoulders (Isaiah 9:5 or 9:6).

Answer: Wonderful Counselor

Isaiah 9:6 (in the NASB) includes the titles "Wonderful Counselor", "Mighty God", "Eternal Father", and "Prince of Peace" for the Messiah, whom Christians believe is Jesus.

"Counselor" here apparently means a wise one, such as a wise king. Interestingly enough, Isaiah 28:29 uses similar words to describe God.

Isaiah 28:29 from the NASB:
"This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who has made His counsel wonderful and His wisdom great."

Clearly, I used the NASB. However, in a few other translations, such as the NABRE, the verse in the question is Isaiah 9:5.
8. John the Baptist gave Jesus this title because he believed that Jesus would take away the world's sins (John 1:29-36).

Answer: Lamb of God

While this exact phrase, Lamb of God, appears in John 1:29-36, there are several other verses that call Jesus a lamb or the Lamb. Examples include Acts 8:32 and 1 Peter 1:19. The book of Revelation uses the Lamb to refer to Jesus multiple times. The idea behind all of this is that in the Old Testament, Jews used lambs in sacrifices to cover sins. The New Testament argues that Jesus is the ultimate sacrificial lamb.

Although John the Baptist spoke these words about Jesus, the writer of John's Gospel is believed to be the apostle John, son of Zebedee, the same one who wrote Revelation.
9. Jesus is more powerful and holy than anybody else is (Revelation 5:5).

Answer: Lion of Judah

According to Revelation 5:5, the apostle John was weeping because he saw a book, but he didn't think that anybody could open it. An elder (perhaps an angel) told him to stop weeping because the Lion of Judah was worthy to open it.

The Lion is sometimes a symbol for Jesus because of this verse. The Christian author C.S. Lewis based his lion character, Aslan, on Jesus.
10. The apostle Paul wrote that Jesus was the "___ and Lord of lords" (1 Timothy 6:15).

Answer: King of kings

The book of Revelation, specifically Revelation 17:14 and 19:16, use these same titles, King of kings and Lord of lords, to describe Jesus. The idea is pretty simple, actually: Jesus is above all human or mortal kings and lords.

In ancient times, people called leaders and masters "lords". A servant could call his master his lord and a woman could call her husband her lord. So, by being the King of kings and Lord of lords, the Bible asserts that Jesus is a leader over leaders and a master over other masters.

In the Old Testament, the term "king of kings"--no capital letters--is occasionally used for the pagan kings, Nebuchadnezzar and Artaxerxes. These kings ruled over many people and were probably prideful.
