    • A.

      Arianism and Docetism

    • B.

      Calvinism and Arminianism

    Arianism and Docetism were two early church heresies that misunderstood the nature of Christ's humanity and divinity. Arianism denied the divinity of Christ, teaching that he was a created being and not equal to God. Docetism, on the other hand, denied the humanity of Christ, teaching that he only appeared to be human but was actually a divine being. These heresies were both rejected by the early church as they contradicted the orthodox understanding of Christ's dual nature as fully human and fully divine.

  • 10. 

    All of the following are theories about how Christ's atonement for sin frees us from its consequences EXCEPT:

    • A.

      Christus Victor

    • B.

      Penal atonement theory

    • C.

      Progressive sanctification

    • D.

      Substitution theory

    Correct Answer
    C. Progressive sanctification
    Explanation
    Progressive sanctification is not a theory about how Christ's atonement for sin frees us from its consequences. Progressive sanctification refers to the ongoing process of becoming more like Christ and growing in holiness after accepting salvation. It focuses on the believer's personal growth and transformation, rather than the specific means by which Christ's atonement brings freedom from sin's consequences. The other three options, Christus Victor, Penal atonement theory, and Substitution theory, are all theories that explain how Christ's atonement accomplishes this freedom.

    Act of God of making Jesus into a man.

    • A.

      Atonement

    • B.

      Christology

    • C.

      Kenosis

    • D.

      Incarnation

    Correct Answer
    D. Incarnation
    Explanation
    The term "Incarnation" refers to the belief in Christianity that God became human in the form of Jesus Christ. This concept is rooted in the idea that Jesus, as both fully human and fully divine, came to Earth to save humanity from sin. The Incarnation is a central tenet of Christian theology and is often associated with the concept of atonement, which refers to the reconciliation of humanity with God through Jesus' sacrifice. The term "Kenosis" is related to the Incarnation, as it refers to the self-emptying or self-humbling of Jesus in taking on human form. However, the term "Incarnation" specifically encompasses the act of God becoming human, making it the most appropriate answer in this context.

      Omnipotence

    • B.

      Omniscience

    • C.

      Immanence

    • D.

      Foreknowledge

    Correct Answer
    B. Omniscience
    Explanation
    The term "omniscience" refers to the concept of having complete knowledge or awareness of all things. In the context of the statement "God KNOWS all things," it suggests that God possesses the ability to know everything, including past, present, and future events, as well as the thoughts and intentions of individuals. This aligns with the traditional understanding of God as all-knowing and all-seeing. Therefore, the answer "Omniscience" accurately describes the concept being conveyed in the statement.

      Finalism

    • D.

      Preterism

    Correct Answer
    B. Eschatology
    Explanation
    Eschatology is the correct answer because it refers to the study of the End Times, which includes topics such as the final judgment, the afterlife, and the ultimate destiny of humanity. Millennialism is a belief in a thousand-year reign of Christ, Finalism is a philosophical doctrine that everything is predetermined, and Preterism is the belief that biblical prophecies have already been fulfilled. However, only Eschatology encompasses the broader study of the End Times as a whole.

This means that through faith in Jesus, believers are forgiven of their sins and considered righteous in the eyes of God. It is a legal term that emphasizes the righteousness of Christ being imputed to believers, thereby making them justified before God.

    If evolution were true, what would be the main problem with the Genesis story?

    • A.

      Millions of years of death could not have happened before the Fall.

    • B.

      Dinosaurs are not mentioned.

    • C.

      Eve would have had to be formed before Adam.

    • D.

      Humanity would have been connected to all primates.

    Correct Answer
    A. Millions of years of death could not have happened before the Fall.
    Explanation
    The main problem with the Genesis story if evolution were true is that millions of years of death could not have happened before the Fall. According to the Genesis story, death and suffering were a result of human sin and entered the world after the Fall. However, if evolution were true, then death and suffering would have existed for millions of years before the existence of humans. This contradicts the idea that death and suffering are a consequence of human actions and raises questions about the accuracy of the Genesis account.

    All of the following are ways we know God desires local churches EXCEPT:

    • A.

      Jesus chose to teach in the synagogues and temples

    • B.

      Paul and the early apostles built churches around Greece/Asia

    • C.

    • D.

      The Sabbath was designed to be fulfilled by churches.

    Correct Answer
    D. The Sabbath was designed to be fulfilled by churches.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "The Sabbath was designed to be fulfilled by churches." This is because the Sabbath, which is a day of rest and worship, was not specifically designed to be fulfilled by churches. The Sabbath is a commandment given to the people of Israel in the Old Testament, and while it is important for believers to gather together for worship, the concept of the Sabbath extends beyond the boundaries of the church. The other options, on the other hand, provide evidence that God desires local churches, such as Jesus teaching in synagogues and temples, Paul and the apostles building churches, and the epistles being written to churches.
