    • Available

    • Hidden

    • Undergoing preparation

    Correct Answer
    A. Hidden
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "hidden". This is because the passage is indicating that the speaker will speak in parables, which are stories or statements that have a hidden meaning. The use of the word "hidden" suggests that the information being conveyed is not immediately apparent or easily understood, but requires deeper thought or interpretation.

    16...blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 17 For truly, I say to you, many _________ longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it. -Matt 13:16-17

    • Unwise people

    • Prophets and righteous people

    • Sinners

    Correct Answer
    A. Prophets and righteous people
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "prophets and righteous people." In this passage, Jesus is speaking to his disciples and telling them that they are blessed because they have the ability to see and hear the truth that he is teaching. He contrasts this with the prophets and righteous people of the past who longed to see and hear what the disciples are experiencing but were not able to. This implies that the disciples are privileged to have a deeper understanding of Jesus' teachings compared to those who came before them.

    The correct answer is "it has not been given". In this passage, Jesus is explaining to his disciples why he speaks to the people in parables. He tells them that the secrets of the kingdom of heaven have been given to them, but not to the others. This implies that the understanding of these secrets has not been given to the others, indicating that it has not been given to them.

    • The devil

    • Man-made religions

    • Riches

    Correct Answer
    A. Riches
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "riches". In this passage from the book of Matthew, it is explained that when the word is sown among thorns, it represents someone who hears the word but is choked by the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches. This means that the distractions and allure of material wealth prevent the person from fully embracing and living out the teachings of the word, resulting in their unfruitfulness.

    • Like

    • Understand

    Correct Answer
    A. Understand
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "understand". In this passage, it is explained that when someone hears the word of the kingdom but fails to understand it, the evil one (referring to Satan) comes and takes away what was sown in their heart. This implies that understanding the message is crucial in order to retain and apply it.

    20 As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, 21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the _____, immediately he falls away. -Matt 13:20-21

    • Devil

    • Truth

    • Word

    Correct Answer
    A. Word
    Explanation
    This passage from Matthew 13:20-21 is part of the parable of the sower, where Jesus explains the different responses people have to hearing the word of God. In this particular scenario, the seed (the word) falls on rocky ground, representing someone who initially receives the word with joy. However, because they have no root in themselves, they are not able to endure when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word. This suggests that the word of God is the correct answer because it is the central focus of the parable and the cause of the person's falling away.
