1. What are the two types of evidence that can be used to determine the truth of the Bible?Gospel evidence and apostolic evidence.Historical evidence and archaelogical evidence.Internal evidence and external evidence.Objective evidence and subjective evidence.2. What is the canon of Scripture?An ancient weapon used by the Israelites to bring down the walls of Jericho.The total body of inspired Scripture, limited to the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments.An ancient poetic form, found frequently in the Psalms, as well as parts of Genesis, Jeremiah, and the book of Revelation.The group of books considered of dubious origin, not having the stamp of divine inspiration upon them, and thus excluded from what we now call the Bible.3. Apparent contradictions in the details of the Gospels can most often be ironed out by applying which principle of interpretation outlined in today's lesson?The principle of gradual revelation.The principle of divine inspiration.The principle of unspoken occurence.The principle of selective narration.4. Variations and discrepancies in Scripture prove that the Bible is an unreliable document, since we would expect all the details to match exactly in order to be able to trust it fully.True.False.5. How has archaeology helped establish or disprove the credibility of the Bible as a record of history?Archaeology has shown that many of the places mentioned in the Bible, such as Bethlehem, never existed, thus throwing doubt on the reliabilty of Scripture.Excavations at Jericho have shown that the walls of the city fell inward, indicating that they were attacked from without, which have caused modern-day historians to question the biblical account found in the book of Joshua.Bitumen deposits have been discovered in the area of Sodom and Gomorrah, which have been established by archaelogists to have been major centers of commerce, indicating that a major disaster occurred long ago in that region, adding credence to the story in Genesis.None of the above.6. What makes the Bible different from other so-called "Scriptures"?It contains predictive prophecy that has been fulfilled, unlike the Koran and the Book of Mormon.It doesn't gloss over its "heroes", but rather portrays them as rather human and failure-prone, in contrast to the holiness of God.No other book has had a greater impact on the world's literature, and no other book has been translated into so many languages as the Bible.All of the above.7. Which of the following is not one of the Old Testament prophecies which found their fulfillment in Christ?His birth in Bethlehem.His betrayal for thirty pieces of silver.His earthly father being a Benjaminite.His virgin birth.8. What does Hebrews 4:12 say about the Word of God?"For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.""In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.""The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.""And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is at work in you who believe."9. What incredible fact about the French atheist Voltaire did the lesson point out?Voltaire was challenged by his mother to simply read the Gospel of John to see for himself whether it was true or not, and through that reading of the Gospel and the conviction of the Holy Spirit, Voltaire not only came to Christ himself, but led his seven brothers and sisters to salvation as well.Voltaire predicted that Christianity would die out within one hundred years. However, only fifty years after his death, the Geneva Bible Society used Voltaire's house and his own printing press to produce Bibles.Voltaire was very vocal about proclaiming his belief that the Bible was a compendium of myths and lies; however, when he accompanied a biblical archaeologist on a dig around the area of Nazareth, they discovered the childhood home of Jesus, including a dreidl with his name carved in it, and Voltaire immediately fell on his knees and repented of his unbelief.When visiting the Sistine Chapel in Rome with his family, Voltaire was moved to tears by Michelangelo's paintings on the ceiling and gave his heart to Christ right there in the cathedral. He later became a famous evangelist, tracing the journeys of Paul as he travelled around the Mediterranean proclaiming the Good News of the Gospel.10. What is the "final proof" of the Bible being God's Word?When Jesus returns for his people and fulfills the last prophecy in the Old Testament.When we take a step of faith and begin to put the Word into practice in our lives.When God speaks audibly from heaven so that the whole world will hear and know the truth.When Satan and his angels bow the knee before God once and for all.
