    The first covenant is made between God and:

    • Moses

    • Adam and Eve

    • Jesus

    • Cain

    Correct Answer
    A. Adam and Eve
    Explanation
    The first covenant is made between God and Adam and Eve. In the book of Genesis, God creates Adam and Eve and places them in the Garden of Eden. He gives them dominion over all creation but forbids them from eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. However, they disobey God's command and eat the forbidden fruit, breaking the covenant. This act leads to their expulsion from the Garden and the introduction of sin into the world. The covenant with Adam and Eve sets the stage for God's plan of redemption through Jesus Christ.

    The Bible can be understood as a series of ____ between God and man.

    • Battles

    • Covenants

    • Events

    • Failures

    Correct Answer
    A. Covenants
    Explanation
    The Bible can be understood as a series of covenants between God and man. Throughout the Bible, God establishes various agreements or covenants with humanity, outlining the terms and conditions of their relationship. These covenants serve as a framework for understanding God's interaction with mankind, revealing His promises, expectations, and the consequences of obedience or disobedience. The covenants in the Bible include the Abrahamic covenant, the Mosaic covenant, and the new covenant through Jesus Christ, among others. By recognizing the Bible as a series of covenants, we can gain insight into the nature of God's relationship with humanity throughout history.

    Why is Adam held responsible for the fall rather than Eve?

    • He was created first.

    • He was smarter than Eve

    • He didn't speak to the serpent directly.

    • He was given the role of defender and protector.

    Correct Answer
    A. He was given the role of defender and protector.
    Explanation
    Adam is held responsible for the fall rather than Eve because he was given the role of defender and protector. In the biblical narrative, God entrusted Adam with the responsibility to take care of the Garden of Eden and protect it from any harm. When Eve was tempted by the serpent and eventually ate the forbidden fruit, Adam failed in his role as the protector by not intervening or stopping her. Therefore, Adam's failure to fulfill his responsibility makes him more accountable for the fall than Eve.

    Unfortunately, God usually doesn't find favor with the firstborn sons. Choose a favored son.

    • Cain

    • Lot

    • Jacob

    • Essau

    Correct Answer
    A. Jacob
    Explanation
    In many biblical stories, the firstborn sons are not favored by God. Cain, the firstborn son of Adam and Eve, was rejected by God after he killed his brother Abel. Lot, the firstborn son of Haran, did not receive any special favor from God. Esau, the firstborn son of Isaac and Rebecca, lost his birthright and blessing to his younger twin brother Jacob. On the other hand, Jacob, the younger twin brother of Esau, was chosen and favored by God throughout his life. This pattern of favoring the younger over the firstborn is seen in various biblical narratives.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Did God lie, as the serpent suggested, about Adam and Eve dying?

    • Yes, because they were just kicked out of paradise.

    • Yes, because now they were god-like and could avoid death.

    • No, because they would eventually die.

    • No, because they suffered a spiritual death.

    Correct Answer
    A. No, because they suffered a spiritual death.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is No, because they suffered a spiritual death. In the story of Adam and Eve, God warned them that if they ate from the forbidden fruit, they would surely die. However, after they ate the fruit, they did not immediately experience physical death. Instead, they suffered a spiritual death, as they were separated from God and expelled from paradise. This spiritual death refers to the loss of their close relationship with God and the consequences of their disobedience.

  • 7. 

    In the first covenant, God's agreement encompasses:

    • Marriage

    • Friendship

    • Work agreements

    • All religions

    Correct Answer
    A. Marriage
    Explanation
    The first covenant refers to the agreement between God and humanity in the Bible, specifically in the Old Testament. Marriage is included in this covenant because it is seen as a sacred bond between a man and a woman, ordained by God. In the biblical context, marriage is considered a representation of the relationship between God and His people, symbolizing love, commitment, and fidelity. Therefore, it is fitting that marriage is included in God's agreement in the first covenant.

  • 8. 

    What did Adam fear more than disobeying God and thus he sinned?

    • The serpent

    • Death

    • Eve

    • Becoming god like

    Correct Answer
    A. Death
    Explanation
    Adam feared death more than disobeying God and thus he sinned. This is because Adam knew that by eating the forbidden fruit, he would introduce sin and death into the world. He chose to prioritize his own desires and self-preservation over obeying God's command, leading to the consequence of death for himself and all of humanity.

    A covenant can best be compared to a(n)

    • Oath

    • Legal agreement

    • Contract

    • Marriage

    Correct Answer
    A. Marriage
    Explanation
    A covenant can best be compared to a marriage because both involve a deep and lasting commitment between two parties. In a marriage, two individuals make a promise to be faithful and supportive to each other for the rest of their lives. Similarly, a covenant is a binding agreement between two parties that establishes a long-term relationship based on trust, loyalty, and mutual obligations. Both marriage and covenants require a high level of commitment and often involve legal and moral responsibilities.

    What is the sign of the first covenant?

    • The apple

    • The serpent

    • The sabbath

    • The Garden of Eden

    Correct Answer
    A. The sabbath
    Explanation
    The sign of the first covenant is the Sabbath. In the Bible, the Sabbath is a day of rest and worship that God commanded the Israelites to observe as a sign of their covenant with Him. It is a symbol of the special relationship between God and His people, and a reminder of His creation and provision. The Sabbath is observed on the seventh day of the week, from Friday evening to Saturday evening, and is still practiced by many Jewish and Christian communities today.
