Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the first word in the King James Version of I Thessalonians?

Answer: Paul

It says in I Thessalonians 1:1, "Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ."

Thessalonica was a city of Roman culture. However, it had privileges under the Romans, as it was a free city with its own money.

2. Who does Paul say was raised from the dead?

Answer: Jesus

It says in I Thessalonians 1:10, "And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come."

Christians believe "the wrath to come" refers to judgement day.

3. Who does Paul say is their witness?

Answer: God

It says in I Thessalonaians 2:5, "For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness."

Paul is stating that God Himself knows what they did, so in essence Paul does not need to defend himself, as God knows the truth.

4. Who does Paul say hindered them from going to Thessalonica sooner?

Answer: Satan

It says in I Thessalonians 2:18, "Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us."

Satan is also known as the Prince of Darkness.

5. When does Paul pray he "might see your face"?

Answer: night and day

It says in I Thessalonians 3:10, "Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?"

In all of Paul's letters to various churches, he talks about praying a lot, so we know that Paul believed prayer to be very important.

6. What does Paul say the Lord will make increase, so that it will be in abundance?

Answer: love one toward another

It says in I Thessalonians 3:12, "And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you."

Love is one of the biggest themes in the Bible.

7. What does I Thessalonians 4:3 say to abstain from?

Answer: fornication

It says in I Thessalonians 4:3, "For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication."

Fornication is sex outside of marriage.

8. Who does Paul say shall rise first when Christ returns?

Answer: the dead in Christ

It says in I Thessalonians 4:16, "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first..."

Christians believe this verse refers to the Second Coming of Christ.

9. How does Paul say the Lord will come?

Answer: as a thief in the night

It says in I Thessalonians 5:2, "For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night."

A "thief in the night" does not announce ahead of time that he is coming to rob a house. Likewise, Paul is saying that Christ will come unannounced.

10. What does Paul say to abstain from?

Answer: all appearances of evil

It says in I Thessalonians 5:22, "Abstain from all appearance of evil."

The reason for this verse is that if a person who is new to Christianity is learning the faith from you, and you appear to be doing things that go against God, it could bring that person down.
