BNT100-Final-Exam

Galatians is written to the people of Galatia.

Paul’s second visit to Galatia revealed something that caused grave concern.

Galatians gives a fuller explanation of life through the Spirit.

Ephesians contains the loftiest of truths in the New Testament, but not the Old.

Ephesians was written during Paul’s second imprisonment in Rome.

Ephesians contains sixty expressions similar to Colossians.

Philippians was written during Paul’s imprisonment.

Philippians is not Christo-centric.

Fifteen times the word “rejoice” occurs in various forms in Philippians.

The Prison Epistles are Philemon, Ephesians, Colossians, and Timothy.

Paul visited Colosse in 51 A.D.

The early Church in Colosse probably met in the house of Philemon.

In the seven-fold portrait of Christ listed in 1:15-18 of Colossians, the image of the invisible God is not mentioned.

The Colossian heresy is basically Jewish.

The Colossian heresy revolves around the events of the Jewish calendar.

The Thessalonians Books were probably the third and fourth Epistles written by Paul.

The Jewish persecution of Paul was so strong; Paul left the city to protect the Thessalonians.

The least issue of the Book of I Thessalonians is the Second Coming of Christ.

The Epistles to Timothy do not expose Paul’s character and personality.

The personal letters to Timothy were at the time of Paul’s death.

Paul’s second imprisonment was about the same as the first.

Paul had little feeling for Timothy.

Titus was left at Crete to deal with the trouble there.

Crete is a large island in the Mediterranean.

Apollos took the message of the Gospel to the island of Crete.

Philemon is hardly worth being in the Bible, being such a small book.

Paul asks Philemon to take the loss he has suffered by Onesimus’ actions.

There is an explanation of the New Testament without Christ.

Some believe Paul wrote the Book of Hebrews, while many say it was Luke, Apollos, Barnabas, or another early Church figure.

Hebrew’s warning has nothing to do with the readers of Hebrews returning to Judaism.

Match the superiority of Christ with the parenthetical warning:

James is the third (3rd) of a group called the “General Epistles.”

The writer of James was the Lord’s half-brother.

The key emphasis of James is “that faith without works is dead.”

Some believe that James was written as early as 45 B.C.

Theological themes of James include trials, law, and eschatology.

The points of which James deals with faith includes the working of faith, the wisdom of faith, and the nature of faith.

Peter is mentioned all the way to chapter twenty-two in the Book of Acts.

Peter wrote his Epistles before he was imprisoned in Rome.

First Peter’s key word is “suffering.”

Victory is suffering which brings praise, glory, and honor to Christ.

The key word of Second Peter is “knowledge.”

People under trial and persecution were to be comforted by the first words of Second Peter.

The Epistle of 1 John was probably written from Ephesus.

First John uses unclear language to reveal Jesus as God incarnate.

John’s teaching of apostolic faith in 1 John contradicted what seems to be the forerunner to the heretics who were responsible for Gnosticism.

The Second Epistle of John is written specifically to a Christian mother, without any other possibility of interpretation.

Jude is brief, and charged with gaiety.

Revelation was written by John on an island in the Aegean Sea.

Match the method of interpretation with the understanding:

The three main divisions of Revelation are: things past, things present, and things future.

The grand purpose of the book is to let us know how God will deal with Satan at the end of time.

Jewish apocalypses are pseudonymous.

In the Book of Revelation, the idea of eschatological Salvation shows God is no longer redemptively active in history.

In 2-4 paragraphs, on a separate sheet of paper, summarize Paul’s teaching in the New Testament. Your answer should not exceed 1 page.
