From Quiz It's Christmas Time!

Answer: An angel

Mary and Joseph were engaged and were going to get married. One day she received a visit from the angel Gabriel and was told that she was expecting a child of the Holy Spirit. Joseph, who was Mary's fiance, dreamed of an angel who said that he should marry Mary and that the child she was expecting was a child of the Holy Spirit and that he should be called "Jesus", a Hebrew name meaning savior. What is the meaning of your name?

From Quiz The Trinity for Kids

Answer: He was moving over or upon the waters.

The Holy Spirit is sometimes called simply the Spirit or the Spirit of God. Genesis, chapter 1, verse 2, states that the earth was formless and void, and the Spirit of God was moving upon or over the waters. So, clearly we have reference to the Holy Spirit in the creation account, but what about the Son (Jesus) and the Father? Well, according to Genesis, God SAID and things came into existence. He spoke the sun, moon, ocean, trees, etc., into existence. The New Testament claims that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was the Word whom God used to create the universe. Henry M. Morris of the Institute for Creation Research states it as the following: "The Father planned the work of creation, the Son did the work ('all things were made by Him'--John 1:3), and the Spirit energized it ('the Spirit of God moved')." In case you were wondering, the Holy Spirit apparently did form the baby, human Jesus inside Mary's womb, based on the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. However, that answer is incorrect for this question. I didn't base the other two choices on the Bible at all.

From Quiz When Jesus Was Born

Answer: He would save His people from their sins.

Gabriel appeared to Mary and said, "Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob's people forever; his kingdom will never end. The Holy Spirit will make this happen and the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God." Mary was so happy she sang a song of praise to God and rejoiced! (Luke 1)

From Quiz Do You Know Your Christmas Scripture?

Answer: an angel

An angel appeared to Mary and told her that she would have a baby through the Spirit of God. He told Mary to name the child "Jesus", because he would save his people from their sins. (Luke 1:26-38) Mary was engaged but was not married yet. When Joseph had his doubts, the angel appeared to him and also gave him the news that Mary's child was of God. (Matthew 1:18-25)

From Quiz Acts and the First Church

Answer: They drew lots.

Jesus had told everyone to go to Jerusalem and wait until he sent a Comforter to them. When they got to Jerusalem, the disciples and followers of Jesus all gathered together. The people there included Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Jude. There were also women, as well as Mary the mother of Jesus, and Jesus' stepbrothers. Peter reminded them that Judas had been a traitor and was dead. He read a scripture from Psalms and told them that someone needed to fulfill Judas' place. So they picked two men that they knew were faithful, Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. They prayed and drew lots between the two. Matthias won and became the new member of the twelve apostles. (Acts 1)

From Quiz Revelation for Kids

Answer: John

John had been banished to the isle of Patmos because many people didn't like him teaching and witnessing to others about Jesus. Although John was separated from family and friends, he stayed close to the one he loved, God. One day God spoke to John and told him to get a pen and some paper quickly! He told John to write everything he heard and saw. (Revelation 1)

From Quiz Put on the Armor of God!

Answer: helps Christians to be strong in the Lord

The armor of God is made up of things to help Christians in their walk with Christ. It helps protect a soldier from the devil when he is attacked but also strengthens him as well. Being a soldier can be hard work and God does not always give his soldiers wealth and riches on earth, but gives them the promise of eternal life if they remain faithful to Him.

From Quiz Jesus on the Cross

There are fourteen. It is a long and painful journey through Jesus' death, while most people think that he is just nailed to a cross and dies. Some women wept for him on the way up, as they didn't want to see him die.

Mary and Martha had gotten word to Jesus that Lazarus was ill and needed Him. Four days later, Jesus arrived in Bethany to find Lazarus had died.

God created the sun and the moon and the stars in the sky. God made your parents and siblings. God even made you too! Although we can't see God with our eyes, He is there and is very far away in Heaven. When we pray, we are talking to Him, and yes, He hears us!

From Quiz He's Not Here, He Is Risen!

Answer: Pilate

Pilate was the Roman governor that was in charge of Jesus' death. He had ordered Jesus crucified when the chief of priests and Pharisees condemned Jesus. After Jesus had died. Joseph and Nicodemus asked Pilate for permission to bury Jesus. They did not want Jesus to be hanging on a cross during the Sabbath day or the Passover weekend. The Sabbath was very special to the Jews, and Joseph and Nicodemus did not want Jesus to be shamed after his death. They wanted their friend to have a proper burial. These events can be found in Matthew 27:57-61 (NLT).

From Quiz It's Christmas Time!

Answer: In Bethlehem

The Roman Emperor Caesar Augustus ordered a census (population count) to be carried out and warned that everyone should follow a rule: to register, people had to be in their family's place of origin. Joseph and Mary used to live in Nazareth, but as Joseph' family was from Bethlehem they had to travel there to be part of the census. After a long journey they arrived in Bethlehem and soon after they arrived Jesus was born. Do you know in which city you were born?

From Quiz The Trinity for Kids

Answer: The Son

In the Old Testament, God used the plural pronouns "us" and "our" to refer to Himself. Please see Genesis 1:26, in which God said "Let us make man in our image", and also Genesis 11:7, which states that God said, "Let us go down and confuse their language". This cannot be denied, but people debate over what it means. Many Christians use such verses to argue for the plurality or Trinity of God--not more than one god, but one God consisting of more than one person--within not just the New Testament, but the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible as well. The Hebrew name for God, "Elohim", while referring to one God, is also the plural of "El". Christians also use Elohim to argue for the Trinity, but Jews don't believe in the Trinity and interpret such things differently than Christians do. The Word is the Son, Jesus. According to the New Testament, the Word of God, who was with God the Father and the Spirit, and was also God Himself, became flesh. This means He became a human being. Christians believe that Jesus was born from a human mother, but not a father. Therefore, He didn't inherit the sinful nature from a human father. Psalms chapter 33, verse 6 affirms that the Lord created from His word.

From Quiz Biblically, Who Am I? #4

Answer: Matthias

Jesus had originally picked twelve disciples. However one of them betrayed Jesus and died the night Jesus was crucified. The disciples got together and decided that they would replace him. They knew God had more work to be done because Jesus had told them to go and teach all nations. So they drew lots (a little bit like a lottery) and I, Matthias, was chosen. (Acts 1:12-23, NIV)

From Quiz When Jesus Was Born

Answer: in a dream

Mary and Joseph were not married yet, and Joseph was unsure if he should marry Mary. While he was sleeping an angel appeared to him and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been in her is of the Holy Spirit. She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." Joseph believed the angel and he married Mary. Together they prepared for the arrival of Jesus! (Matthew 1:19-20)

From Quiz Jesus Goes to Calvary

Answer: the religious leaders

The religious leaders should have been the ones who were the happiest to see Jesus, but they were not. Jesus told them they deceived the people and many did wicked things. They were angered and secretly tried to plan a way to kill him. However Jesus was in town during the Passover, a very important holiday. "Let's kill him afterwards!," they said. "If we do it now it could cause trouble or a riot!". (Matthew 26:3-5)

From Quiz Do You Know Your Christmas Scripture?

Answer: the government

The government told Joseph and Mary to go to Bethlehem. Caesar Augustus, the ruler at that time, had ordered a census, or count, of all the people in the land. Every man was required to go to the city of his birth along with his family. Joseph took Mary, and together they made the journey. (Luke 2:1)

From Quiz Ladies of the New Testament

Answer: Mary

An angel named Gabriel appeared to me and told me that I would have a child by God. I was excited and scared. I was engaged to Joseph, who had questions when I became pregnant. However the angel appeared to him also and told him that this child was special and would save our people. We had to make a trip the night our son was born. The only place we could find was a barn. We named him Jesus, as the angel had said. We were honored and surprised when shepherds came to worship him and the angels sang in the sky. Later wise men came bring gold and gifts that helped us raise Jesus. Jesus worked with my husband Joseph and learned how to be a carpenter. He surprised us with all the things he knew. I continued to care for him even after he was a grown man. (Luke 1:26-35)

From Quiz Acts and the First Church

Answer: Fire appeared above their heads and they spoke in different languages.

The disciples and other followers of Jesus were all gathered in an upper room waiting for the promise Jesus had told them would come. Some left but the ones that remained became focused on the promise and God. On Pentecost, a sudden sound like a rushing of a mighty wind came and filled the room where they were sitting. Fire appeared on each of their heads and they began speaking in other languages they had never learned or knew before. People started looking in the windows to see what was going on because they heard them praising God in their own languages from different countries. (Acts 2)
