  • 2. 

    The Canaanite woman

    • Humbly accepted Christ’s assessment and begged for mercy

    • Was incensed by the Lord’s reply and reviled Him

    • Was saddened by the Lord’s reply and turned away

    • Arrogantly refused Christ’s assessment and defended her position

    Correct Answer
    A. Humbly accepted Christ’s assessment and begged for mercy
    Explanation
    Her reply was magnificent. She agreed with His description completely.
    Taking the place of an unworthy Gentile, she cast herself on His mercy,
    compassion, and grace. She said, in effect, “You are right! I am only a dog
    under the table. You are feeding your chosen people at the table

    Jesus accused the Pharisees and scribes of transgressing

    • The commandment of God

    • The tradition of the elders

    • The social standards of the day

    • The laws of the Roman government

    Correct Answer
    A. The commandment of God
    Explanation
    Thus, when the Pharisees criticized the disciples, it was
    for their failure to observe these additional rules.
    The Lord Jesus reminded His critics that what they were transgressing
    was “the commandment of God,” not simply the tradition of the elders. Then
    He went on to give an example of how they did this

    To deny self means to

    • Live without everything you desire

    • Yield completely to God’s control

    • Live without the basic necessities of life

    • Remove yourself from contact with the world

    Correct Answer
    A. Yield completely to God’s control
    Explanation
    Now the Lord Jesus plainly states what is involved in being His
    disciples; it means denial of self, cross bearing, and following Him. To
    deny self is not the same as self-denial. It means to yield to His control so
    completely that self has no rights whatever.

    To have faith for moving mountains must be based on

    • A strong desire for something

    • A need that must be met

    • A command or promise of God

    • A lengthy time of self-denial

    Correct Answer
    A. A command or promise of God
    Explanation
    Of
    course, it should be understood that true faith must be based upon some
    command or promise of God. A Christian cannot expect to perform some
    spectacular stunt in order to gratify a personal whim. That is not faith, but
    presumption.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Because the Canaanite woman was a Gentile she

    • Expected Jesus to answer her request

    • Had no claim on the mercies of God

    • Had a right to the same privileges as the Jews

    • Understood the protocol of addressing God

    Correct Answer
    A. Had no claim on the mercies of God
    Explanation
    Through Israel’s disobedience, some had
    survived the invasion of Canaan under Joshua, and this woman was a
    descendant of the surviving remnant. As a Gentile, she did not enjoy the
    privileges of God’s chosen earthly people. She was an alien, a stranger,
    having no hope, and without God in the world (Eph. 2:12). As far as her
    status was concerned, she had no claim on God or on His Messiah

    The concept of clean and unclean in the Old Testament

    • Had to do with moral purity

    • Had to do with spiritual health

    • Was important for physical health

    • Was entirely a ceremonial matter

    Correct Answer
    A. Was entirely a ceremonial matter
    Explanation
    First of all, the whole concept of clean and unclean goes back to the Old
    Testament Scriptures. It had nothing to do with physical, moral, or spiritual
    cleanness, but was entirely a ceremonial matter. If a person touched a dead
    body, for instance, he was ceremonially unclean. Or, if he ate certain things,

    Jesus paid the temple tax 

    • So He wouldn’t create unnecessary offense

    • Because He was required to

    • To pacify the Pharisees

    • So He wouldn’t embarrass Peter

    Correct Answer
    A. So He wouldn’t create unnecessary offense
    Explanation
    For Him to
    pay tribute for the support of this temple would be equivalent to paying
    tribute to Himself. However, rather than cause unnecessary offense, the
    Lord agreed to pay the tax.

    Christ’s transfiguration was a ___________ of His kingdom of glory.

    • Fulfillment

    • Preview

    • Remembrance

    • Denial

    Correct Answer
    A. Preview
    Explanation
    The scene was a preview of what the Lord Jesus will be like when He
    comes back to set up His kingdom. He will no longer appear as the sacrificial
    Lamb but as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. No longer will His glory be
    veiled in human flesh; all who see Him will recognize Him immediately
    as God the Son

    The “rock” on which Jesus said the church would be built is

    • Peter himself

    • The apostles

    • The prophets

    • Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Son of God

    Correct Answer
    A. Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Son of God
    Explanation
    If Peter is not the rock, then what is? From the context, the most obvious
    answer is that the rock is Peter’s confession that Christ is the Son of the
    living God. The church is founded on the truth that Christ is none other
    than the Son of God
