8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” 9 And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the Sabbath. 10 The Jews therefore said to him who was cured, “It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to ___________.” -John 5:8-10
Correct Answer
B. Carry your bed
Explanation
In this passage, Jesus heals a man who had been paralyzed for 38 years. After being healed, the man is able to take up his bed and walk. The Jews who witnessed this miracle confront the man, stating that it is not lawful for him to carry his bed on the Sabbath. This shows that the Jews were more concerned with following their religious laws and traditions rather than rejoicing in the miraculous healing that had taken place. Therefore, the correct answer is "carry your bed".

22 For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to ______, -John 5:22
Correct Answer
C. The Son
Explanation
In this verse, it is stated that the Father does not judge anyone but has given all judgment to someone else. The correct answer is "the Son" because it is believed in Christianity that Jesus, the Son of God, will be the one who judges all people. This is supported by other verses in the Bible that talk about Jesus being the judge of the living and the dead. Therefore, the Son is the one to whom the Father has entrusted all judgment.

45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you—______, -John 5:45
Correct Answer
B. Moses
Explanation
In this verse, Jesus is speaking to a group of people who do not believe in Him. He tells them that He will not accuse them to the Father, but there is someone who does accuse them, and that is Moses. This is because Moses, through the law he gave to the Israelites, serves as a witness against those who do not believe in Jesus. The law points out their sin and their need for a Savior. Therefore, Moses can be seen as an accuser in this context.

By asking the people to sit down, Jesus prepares them for the upcoming miracle and indicates that they are about to be fed.

26 Jesus answered them and said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. 27 Do not labor for the ______ which perishes, but for the _____ which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.” -John 6:2-27
Correct Answer
A. Food
Explanation
In this passage, Jesus is addressing a crowd who is seeking him because they were fed with loaves of bread. He tells them not to focus on earthly things like food, which perishes, but rather on spiritual matters that lead to everlasting life. Jesus emphasizes that the true sustenance comes from God, and he is the one who can provide it. Therefore, the correct answer is "food" because Jesus is urging the crowd to seek something greater than temporary physical nourishment.

Explanation
In this passage, the people ask Jesus what they need to do to work the works of God. Jesus responds by saying that the work of God is to believe in Him whom He sent. This means that the most important thing they need to do is have faith in Jesus as the one sent by God. This emphasizes the importance of trust and belief in Jesus as the key to doing the work of God.

Correct Answer
B. Bread
Explanation
In John 6:33, it is stated that the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world is the "bread" of God.

Correct Answer
A. Draws him
Explanation
This verse from the book of John states that no one can come to Jesus unless the Father who sent Him draws them. This implies that it is not within human power or will to seek Jesus on their own. Instead, it is the Father who initiates and enables individuals to come to Jesus. The phrase "draws him" suggests that it is through the divine influence and guidance of the Father that people are led to Jesus. This concept highlights the belief in the sovereignty of God in salvation and the role of His grace in drawing people to Himself.

14.
48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are ______. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.” -John 6:48-51
Correct Answer
B. Dead
Explanation
The correct answer is "dead". This is because Jesus is contrasting the manna that the Israelites ate in the wilderness, which only provided temporary physical sustenance, with Himself as the true bread of life that gives eternal life. He states that anyone who eats of this bread (referring to believing in Him and receiving Him) will live forever. Therefore, those who do not eat of this bread are spiritually and physically dead.

Correct Answer
B. Flesh

In this verse, the Jews are questioning how Jesus can give them His flesh to eat. This statement is a reference to the concept of the Eucharist or communion, where Christians believe that the bread and wine symbolize the body and blood of Jesus. The Jews are perplexed and unable to understand how Jesus can make such a claim. This verse highlights the difficulty the Jews had in accepting Jesus' teachings and the symbolic nature of his words.

Explanation
In this passage from the book of John, Jesus is speaking to his disciples and emphasizing the importance of partaking in his body and blood. By stating that unless they eat his flesh and drink his blood, they have no life in them, Jesus is using symbolic language to convey that true life and spiritual nourishment can only be found through a deep connection with him. This statement highlights the significance of the Eucharist in Christian theology, where believers partake in the bread and wine as a way to commune with Jesus and receive his life-giving grace.

This communion signifies a close relationship where the person remains in Jesus and Jesus remains in them, emphasizing the importance of faith and unity with Christ. The correct answer, "abides in Me, and I in him," reflects this understanding of the passage.

Correct Answer

Explanation
In this passage, Simon Peter acknowledges Jesus as the Messiah and affirms his belief in Him.
