Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Chapter 5 of Mark's Gospel describes Jesus meeting a man possessed by demons. When Jesus asked him "What is thy name?", the man answered "My name is [...], for we are many". What word, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: legion

In chapter 5, verses 1-20, of Mark's Gospel, Jesus heals the man by allowing the demons to go into a herd of pigs instead. The pigs then run into a lake and drown. This miracle is also recorded in the Gospels of Luke (chapter 8 verses 26-39) and Matthew (chapter 8, verses 28-34).
2. Chapter 2 of Matthew's Gospel tells how the wise men came to the new-born Jesus. Verse 11 includes the following: "And when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; [...], and frankincense, and myrrh". What word, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: gold

Of the two Gospels that tell of the birth of Jesus, only Matthew mentions the wise men; Luke's Gospel contains the story of the shepherds instead. The gifts indicate that the wise men recognise Jesus' forthcoming role as a king. Because they brought three gifts, the tradition has developed that there were three of them, too, and they have even been given the names Casper, Melchior and Balthazar.
3. Chapter 7, verse 7, of the Old Testament Book of Judges reads: "And the Lord said unto [...], By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place". The name of which Hebrew judge (whose name is also used by an organization that places Bibles in hotel rooms), made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: Gideon

The story of Gideon appears in chapters 6 through 8 of the Book of Judges. The "three hundred men that lapped" were not taking part in a running race, but drinking water. To summarise the story very briefly, a large Israelite army was planning to attack the Midianites, but God was concerned that the Israelite army was too large, and thus liable to boast that their victory was achieved through their own strength, rather than with God's help. By a series of elimination tests, the number was whittled down from 32,000 to 300, thus ensuring that God could take most of the credit.
4. We can read in chapter 3, verse 16, of John's Gospel the promise that "For God so [...] the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (King James Version). What word, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: loved

For many Christians, John 3:16 is one of the key verses of the whole Bible, because it states clearly and unambiguously that God will grant eternal life to anyone who believes in him.
5. Psalm 100 (King James Version) starts with the following words: "Make a joyful [...] unto the Lord, all ye lands". What word, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: noise

The Book of Psalms is the longest book in the Bible, and contains 150 different songs of praise to God, most of which are believed to have been written by King David. The psalms themselves vary in length from two verses (Psalm 117) to 176 verses (Psalm 119). Psalm 100, with five verses, is thus one of the shortest.
6. Chapter 3 of Matthew's Gospel includes an account of the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist. Verse 16 states "And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a [...], and lighting upon him". The name of which bird, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: dove

Matthew tells that when Jesus came to John to be baptised, John at first refused to perform the ritual, saying that it was Jesus who should be baptising him. Jesus, however insisted, and after the baptism was complete (as this verse states), God came down in the form of a dove, and a voice from heaven declared "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
7. Part of the story of Noah and the ark, Genesis Chapter 8 verse 11 reads "And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an [...] leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth" (King James Version). What word, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: olive

One of the best-known Bible stories is that of Noah and the ark, which can be found in Chapters 6 to 8 of the Book of Genesis. The full sequence of birds sent out from the ark were firstly a raven (which didn't return); secondly the dove (which came back with nothing); thirdly the dove again (which came back with the olive leaf); and finally the dove for a third time (which this time didn't come back at all).
8. In a passage recalling events in the Old Testament, Chapter 7 verse 41 of the Book of Acts reads: "And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the [...], and rejoiced in the works of their own hands" (King James Version). The name of what object, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: idol

Chapter 7 of the Acts of the Apostles is a summary of many of the events in the Old Testament, including the stories of Abraham, Joseph and Moses. Verse 41 is a reference to the account of the worship of the golden calf by the Hebrews, told in Exodus Chapter 32.
9. Chapter 28, verse 15, of the Old Testament Book of Proverbs contains the following proverbial statement: "As a roaring [...], and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over the poor people" (King James Version). The name of what beast, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: lion

The Book of Proverbs is a miscellaneous collection of wise sayings and advice on behaviour that its readers should either follow or steer clear of. Some of them are still quoted today (if incorrectly), such as Proverbs 16:18, which states "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall".

I also rather like Proverbs 11:12: "Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion". One for Miley Cyrus, perhaps.
10. The first verse of chapter 4 of Matthew's Gospel reads: "Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the [...]" (King James Version). What word, made up of letters found in the words "sin", "good", and "evil", fits in the blank?

Answer: devil

The first 11 verses of Matthew Chapter 4 tell of Jesus' temptation in the wilderness. The devil tempts him three times: to turn stones into bread; to throw himself off a pinnacle of the temple; and to worship him (the devil). Each time, Jesus refuses to give in to the temptations.
