Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plains, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together. This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return to the South."
2. "No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away, Europe is the less . . . any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."
3. "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and Mammon."
4. "My little sisters, the birds, much bounden are ye unto God, your creator, and always in every place ought ye to praise him, for that he hath given you liberty to fly about everywhere, and hath also given you double and triple raiment."
5. "The God that holds you over the pit of hell much as one holds a spider or some loathsome insect over the fire abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked; his wrath towards you burns like fire . . . You have offended him infinitely more than ever a stubborn rebel did his prince, and yet it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling into the fire every moment . . . "
6. He wasn't a preacher, but he sounded like one when he said, "Let us pray for the salvation of all those who live in totalitarian darkness, pray they will discover the joy of knowing God. But until they do, let us be aware that while they preach the supremacy of the state, declare its omnipotence over individual man, and predict its eventual domination of all peoples of the earth--they are the focus of evil in the modern world."
7. "My crime is that I will not go with the multitude to do evil. My singularity is that when I say that freedom is of God and slavery is of the devil, I mean just what I say. My fanaticism is that I insist on the American people abolishing slavery or ceasing to prate of the rights of man . . . The abolitionism which I advocate is as absolute as the law of God, and as unyielding as his throne."
8. "I do not wish you to oppose anybody's religion, but everybody's wickedness. Perhaps there are fewer sure marks of the reality of religion than when a man feels more joined in spirit to a true holy person of a different denomination than to an irregular liver of his own." (Hint: He was an early American.)
9. "You represent Him as mocking His helpless creatures by offering what He never intends to give...You represent God as worse than the devil--more false, more cruel, more unjust..."
10. Apart from Jesus, who said, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."?
