    A. To bring meaning out of the text.
    Explanation
    Exegesis refers to the process of extracting or uncovering the intended meaning from a text. It involves carefully analyzing and interpreting the content, context, and historical background of the text in order to understand its true message.

    Scriptural allegory is a story in which people, things, and events have ...

    • Symbolic meaning

    • A certain order

    • More than one name

    • An atmosphere of suspense

    Correct Answer
    A. Symbolic meaning
    Explanation
    Scriptural allegory is a type of story where the characters, objects, and events represent symbolic meanings. In other words, the elements in the story have a deeper significance beyond their literal interpretation. This allows the story to convey moral, spiritual, or philosophical messages to the readers or listeners. By using symbolism, scriptural allegories can explore complex ideas and truths in a metaphorical and engaging way. Therefore, the correct answer is "symbolic meaning."

    • Synaptic

    • Synoptic

    Correct Answer
    A. Synoptic
    Explanation
    The accounts of the gospel present an overview of the life of Jesus Christ and correspond closely to each other. The word "synoptic" means "seeing together" or "viewing together." In the context of the question, "synoptic" accurately describes the relationship between the accounts of the gospel, as they provide a collective and similar perspective on the life of Jesus.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Each passage has one primary meaning and only one application.

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. FALSE
    Explanation
    This statement is false because each passage can have multiple meanings and applications. The primary meaning of a passage may vary depending on the reader's interpretation and understanding. Additionally, different individuals may apply the information or ideas presented in a passage in different ways based on their own perspectives and needs. Therefore, it is incorrect to claim that each passage has only one primary meaning and application.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Apostolic Pentecostals approach the Bible with the assumption that each passage is …

    • Relevant and applicable

    • To be thought of separately

    • Linked to the New Testament

    • Linked to the Old Testament

    Correct Answer
    A. Relevant and applicable
    Explanation
    Apostolic Pentecostals approach the Bible with the assumption that each passage is relevant and applicable. This means that they believe that every passage in the Bible has meaning and significance for their lives and can be applied to their daily living. They view the Bible as a guidebook for their faith and see it as a source of guidance and instruction in all aspects of life. They believe that the teachings and principles found in the Bible are timeless and can be applied to their lives today.

  • 9. 

    Most difficulties in understanding the Scriptures arise from lack of spiritual illumination and...

    • Cultural, linguistic, and contextual distance from the original text

    • Lack of education

    • Doctrinal confusion

    • Lack of study

    Correct Answer
    A. Cultural, linguistic, and contextual distance from the original text
    Explanation
    The correct answer is cultural, linguistic, and contextual distance from the original text. This means that many difficulties in understanding the Scriptures stem from not being familiar with the culture, language, and context in which the original text was written. This lack of understanding can make it challenging to interpret the intended meaning of the Scriptures accurately.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Pentecostals are willing to give equal value to historical narratives as to other portions of Scripture.

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. TRUE
    Explanation
    Pentecostals believe that historical narratives in the Bible hold equal value to other parts of Scripture. They do not prioritize one over the other, recognizing that historical accounts are just as important for understanding the message and teachings of the Bible. This belief reflects their commitment to the entirety of Scripture and their belief in its divine inspiration and authority.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    An idiom is …

    • A precondition or presupposition that must be dealt with

    • The language of a fool

    • Educated thinking

    • An expression or phrase that must be treated as a whole

    Correct Answer
    A. An expression or phrase that must be treated as a whole
    Explanation
    An idiom is an expression or phrase that must be treated as a whole. It cannot be understood by looking at the individual words alone. Idioms often have a figurative or metaphorical meaning that is different from the literal meaning of the words. Therefore, to understand the true meaning of an idiom, one must consider the entire phrase or expression as a unit.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Allegorical interpretation is not an appropriate because it is rooted in the intention of …

    • God

    • The author

    • The scribes

    • The interpreter

    Correct Answer
    A. The interpreter
    Explanation
    Allegorical interpretation is not appropriate because it is rooted in the intention of the interpreter. This means that the interpretation is subjective and can vary depending on the individual's beliefs, biases, and personal understanding. It does not necessarily reflect the original intention of God, the author, or the scribes. Therefore, the correct answer is the interpreter.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    The best interpreter of Scripture is ...

    • The grammatical-historical method

    • The apostolic believer

    • History

    • Scripture

    Correct Answer
    A. Scripture
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Scripture because Scripture is the ultimate authority and source of truth when interpreting the Bible. The grammatical-historical method and the apostolic believer can be helpful tools and perspectives in understanding Scripture, but ultimately Scripture itself is the most reliable and authoritative guide for interpreting its own meaning. History can provide valuable context and background information, but it is not the final authority in interpreting Scripture.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    We should expect a                                      fulfillment of prophecy unless the context or the New Testament indicate otherwise:

    • Spiritual

    • Literal

    • Symbolic

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Literal
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "literal." In this context, it means that we should expect the fulfillment of prophecy to be exactly as stated, without any symbolic or metaphorical interpretation. The question suggests that unless the context or the New Testament provide evidence to the contrary, we should interpret prophecy in a straightforward and concrete manner.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    All translations and copies of Scripture are inspired.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    This statement is not accurate. While the original texts of Scripture are considered to be inspired, translations and copies are not necessarily inspired. Translations and copies can contain errors or biases introduced by the translators or scribes. Therefore, it is important to consult multiple translations and refer to the original texts when studying Scripture.

    Bible must        ___________ and                               our experience.

    • Instruct and prepare

    • Rebut and disprove

    • Generate and encourage

    • Illuminate and correct

    Correct Answer
    A. Illuminate and correct
    Explanation
    The word "Bible" suggests that the correct answer should relate to religious or spiritual teachings. "Illuminate and correct" aligns with this idea, as the Bible is often seen as a source of guidance and enlightenment. It implies that the Bible sheds light on truths and helps to correct any misconceptions or errors in our understanding. The other options, such as "instruct and prepare" or "rebut and disprove," do not capture the spiritual aspect of the Bible's role.

       A                    is something that truly existed in the Old Testament but foreshadowed or prefigured a permanent and greater truth:

    • Symbol

    • Type

    • Shadow

    • Figure

    Correct Answer
    A. Type
    Explanation
    In the Old Testament, a "type" refers to something that actually existed but was used to foreshadow or prefigure a greater truth. It is a symbol or representation that points to a deeper spiritual reality. Types can be seen throughout the Old Testament, such as the sacrificial system, where the offering of animals symbolized the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. This term helps us understand the significance and purpose of various events, people, and practices in the Old Testament as they point forward to the fulfillment found in Christ.

    Spiritual experiences are instructive when they are validated by

    • God

    • The Body

    • The historical context

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. The Body
    Explanation
    Spiritual experiences can be considered instructive when they are validated by the body. This means that the experiences should be grounded in physical sensations and bodily awareness. The body is seen as an important aspect in spiritual experiences because it connects the individual to their physical existence and helps them understand and interpret the spiritual realm. By validating spiritual experiences through the body, individuals can have a more holistic understanding and integration of their spiritual beliefs and practices.
