Greetings to all; I trust that this week has been going well for you so far. It’s been a while since I challenged you with a simple bible quiz, so here goes the latest. I hope you don’t mind the break from the usual blog messages and I want you to know why I throw in these quizzes from time to time. For starters, it is not my aim to embarrass anyone. I would like nothing better than to see all of you ace the tests, whether you think you already know the answers or research some before you commit yourself. In fact, I would suggest and encourage you to research the bible and not give your answer until you feel you have found it. A good bible concordance or websites such as biblestudytools.com or biblegateway.com are great resources you can use. Ready? Here goes:
