Hey, Jude Trivia Quiz

Answer: Jude

It says in Jude 1:1, "Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called."

Jude's letter (or epistle) is one chapter long and written to address false teaching in the church.

Answer: the land of Egypt

It says in Jude 1:5, "I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not."

This is in reference to the Old Testament Book of Exodus, when God used Moses to lead the Hebrews out of slavery in Egypt. Because of their disobedience many were killed instantly, and the others were forced to roam the desert for 40 years (one generation) so that that generation could not enter into the Promised Land.

Answer: Sodom and Gomorrha

It says in Jude 1:7, "Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire."

Sodom and Gomorrha were two cities in the Old Testament (Genesis 18-19) that God destroyed because of the people's wickedness.

Answer: the body of Moses

It says in Jude 1:9, "Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee."

It says in the book of Deuteronomy, regarding Moses' death and burial: "So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, as the Lord had said. He buried him in the valley in the land of Moab facing Beth-peor, and no one to this day knows where his grave is..." (Deuteronomy 34: 5-6).

Answer: Balaam didn't listen to his donkey

The entire verse of Jude 1:11 says, "Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core."

In the Book of Numbers, Balaam's donkey refused to continue going ahead because he saw an angel and knew that if they continued they would die. However, Balaam was too concerned with what he wanted to notice the angel. What always strikes me as funny is that he also failed to notice that a donkey was talking. When the donkey questioned why he treated him so cruelly, the man replied as if donkeys talked all the time.

Answer: seventh

It says in Jude 1:14, "And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints."

The tree line from Adam to Enoch is as follows: Adam and Eve begat Seth who begat Enos who begat Cainan who begat Mahalaleel who begat Jared who begat Enoch.

There is another Enoch who is the son of Cain, another son of Adam's, but this verse refers to the Enoch that came from Seth's line.

Answer: execute judgement on all

It says in Jude 1:14-15, "And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."

Answer: mockers

It says in Jude 1:18, "How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts."

Mockers refers to people who mock other people for their beliefs in Jesus. Also, it refers to mocking Jesus directly.

Answer: in the Holy Ghost

It says in Jude 18-20, "But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost."

The Holy Ghost, also known at the Holy Spirit, is the third part of the Trinity. The Trinity consists of God, the Father; Jesus, the Son; and the Holy Ghost.

Answer: fear

The entire Jude 1:23 verse says, "And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh."

In other words, we have to be careful who we associate with, as some people may be dangerous, while others may be our friends (by friends I mean not dangerous).
