6. All of the following are examples of parables emphasizing Jesus as a compassionate Messiah except:

A. Love of Enemies
B. Lazarus and the Rich Man
C. The Bridesmaids awaiting the Bridegroom
D. Zacchaeus the Tax Collector

A. C. The Bridesmaids awaiting the Bridegroom

Explanation

The parables of Jesus often emphasize his compassion and teachings on love and forgiveness. In the parable of Love of Enemies, Jesus teaches his followers to love and pray for their enemies, showing his compassionate nature. In the parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man, Jesus highlights the importance of caring for the poor and disadvantaged, again emphasizing his compassion. In the story of Zacchaeus the Tax Collector, Jesus shows compassion by accepting and forgiving a man who was despised by society. However, the parable of the Bridesmaids awaiting the Bridegroom does not specifically emphasize Jesus as a compassionate Messiah. It focuses more on the need for preparedness and readiness for the coming of Christ.

7. The ____________ is a Catholic Dogma that emphasizes that the Blessed Mother was born free from all stain of sin.

A. Virgin Birth
B.Immaculate Conception
C.Fiat

Correct Answer

A. B.Immaculate Conception

Explanation

The correct answer is b. Immaculate Conception. The Immaculate Conception is a Catholic Dogma that teaches that the Blessed Mother, Mary, was conceived without original sin. This means that she was born free from all stain of sin. It is an important belief in Catholicism that highlights Mary's purity and her role as the mother of Jesus. The term "Immaculate Conception" can sometimes be confused with the Virgin Birth, which refers to the birth of Jesus to Mary without the involvement of a human father. However, in this context, the Immaculate Conception specifically refers to Mary's own conception without sin.

13. Catholics believe in Sola Scriptura as the only source of revelation

True
False

Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

Catholics do not believe in Sola Scriptura as the only source of revelation. Sola Scriptura is a belief held by some Protestant denominations, which asserts that the Bible alone is the ultimate authority for Christian faith and practice. However, Catholics believe in the concept of Sacred Tradition, which holds that both the Bible and the teachings passed down through the Church's history are sources of revelation. Therefore, the statement that Catholics believe in Sola Scriptura as the only source of revelation is false.

14. Mary's "yes" to God is referred to as her Fiat.

True
False

Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Mary's "yes" to God is referred to as her Fiat because the term "fiat" comes from the Latin word meaning "let it be done." This refers to Mary's acceptance of God's will and her willingness to become the mother of Jesus. In the Bible, Mary responds to the angel Gabriel's announcement by saying, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word." This act of surrender and obedience is often referred to as Mary's Fiat, highlighting her faith and trust in God.

15. Adelphos is the Greek word which supports the Catholic belief that Jesus did in fact have brothers.

True
False

Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

The statement is false because the Greek word "adelphos" does not necessarily mean "brothers" in the literal sense. It can also mean "close relatives" or "kin." Therefore, the word itself does not provide conclusive evidence to support the Catholic belief that Jesus had biological brothers.
