Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the first word of II Timothy?

Answer: Paul

It says in II Timothy 1:1, "Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus."

Paul is very encouraging in his letters to Timothy.

2. Who is Timothy's grandmother?

Answer: Lois

It says in II Timothy 1:5, "When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also."

The name Lois means "more desirable."

3. Which house does Paul say the Lord should have mercy on?

Answer: the house of Onesiphoras

It says in II Timothy 1:16, "The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain."

The name Onesiphoras means "profit bearing". This was a Christian in Ephesians who sought to find out where Paul was when Paul was imprisoned.

The other names were completely fabricated.

4. Who does the writer say Jesus Christ is "the seed of"?

Answer: David

It says in II Timothy 2:8, "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel."

"The seed of David" is an expression meaning that Jesus' lineage can be traced back to King David.

5. What does Paul say to "study to show thyself"?

Answer: approved unto God

It says in II Timothy 2:15, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."

Some churches have a youth group called AWANA (which stands for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed) and this is the key verse of this club, and the verse that gave AWANA its name.

The verse talks about the importance of studying God's Word.

6. How does Paul describe the last days?

Answer: perilous

It says in II Timothy 3:1, "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. "

If one continues to read chapter 3 of II Timothy, Paul goes on to explain why the last days will be perilous times.

7. According to II Timothy, who withstood Moses?

Answer: Jannes and Jambres

It says in II Timothy 3:8, "Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith."

The Holman Illustrated Pocket Dictionary says that Jannes and Jambres were men who opposed Moses and Aaron. Their names do not appear in the Old Testament itself, but scholars believe that they were some of the magicians who sought to mimic the miracles performed in Egypt.

8. What does Paul say people will turn their ears away from?

Answer: the truth

It says in II Timothy 4:4, "And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."

Paul is still talking about the end times in this verse.

9. Who does Paul say is with him?

Answer: Luke

It says in II Timothy 4:11, "Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry."

Luke was a physician and the author of one of the Gospels.

10. What is Alexander's profession?

Answer: coppersmith

It says in II Timothy 4:14, "Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works."

Not much is known about Alexander. There are four other Alexanders mentioned in the Bible but they do not appear to be the same Alexander.
