Here's what I know off the top of my head and from a few quick Bible lookups.

1.Through whom did sin come into the world? I'm guessing this means Eve, but an argument could be made for Satan as well. Also, I'm fairly certain there's a verse that says sin entered the world through Adam, so this could be referring to that as well.

2. How many churches did John write to in Revelation? 7

3. What does God mean when he says he is “Alpha and Omega”? Beginning and End

4. What two Israelite leaders led Israel to a land they themselves didn’t enter? Moses and Aaron

5. Two women came before Solomon each insisting that the same baby was her son. What was Solomon’s decision? He suggested cutting the baby in half, which revealed which woman cared more for the baby.

6. What animal does Jesus ask his disciples to take from a village as he begins his ministry in Jerusalem? I think this is referring the the donkey?

7. Name the two people (a married couple) struck dead within hours of each other for lying to the Holy Spirit? Hint: Peter was present for both deaths Ananias and Sapphira

8. Who wrote the letter to Philemon? Paul

9. Where did the Good Samaritan take the man who had been beaten and robbed? To an inn

10. Who laughed when God said she would have a son? Sarai

11. How many cows did Pharaoh see in his dream? 14: 7 fat, 7 skinny

12. Who said, “choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve. . . . as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord”? Joshua

13.What did Jacob name the place where he wrestled with God all night? Peniel

14.Fill in the blank: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of ________” It's either wisdom or knowledge

15.What rank did Cornelius hold in the Roman army? He was a centurion, I think

16. How many days will the two witnesses prophesy? 1,260

17. What tribe was Daniel, Hannaniah, Mishael, and Azariah from? Judah

18. How many people died after David chose the pestilence?

19. Which book/chapter/verse of the Bible compares a gold ring in a pig's snout to a beautiful women without discretion? (2 point for book, 1 for chapter, 1 for verse) It's in Proverbs, don't know the chapter or verse. I'll try to find it later.

20. Who is the prophetess that led the Thyatiran church astray and what verse of the Bible is she in?(1 point for name, 1 point for book name, 1 point for chapter, 1 point for verse) Jezebel, Revelation 2:20-23

Since we're going to be a really strong team, I suggest we choose something related to Samson.

[Old Brad]

14. Knowledge, Proverbs 1:7

18. 70,000, 2 Samuel 24:15

[Woody]

We could also have a Doctor Who themed name/slogan, since we're all fans.

[John Chrysostom]

Team TARDIS "We've been to the future so we know we won."

[Woody]

Well, that's settled, then. Any insight on Questions 1 and 19?

[John Chrysostom]

Question one is Adam because it is through Christ the Second Adam that we are saved from sin

Question 19 is Proverbs 11:21

As for Question six my Bible says a colt not a donkey

[Woody]

1. Adam does make the most sense to me.

6. The exact phrasing varies between the Gospels, but "A young donkey" and "The colt of a donkey" would both work

19. It's 11:22 in my Bible...

So, we're done then! Good work, everyone. =]

We should designate one of us as the person who sends in our answers. I volunteer for the job, so unless either of you object, I'll send them in on Wednesday.

[John Chrysostom]

I think colt of a donkey would be best

Hmm, it's 11:21 in my Bible btw when it comes to Psalms my Bible is slightly different so others should take those questions

[Woody]

Sounds good to me.

I checked several translations just to be sure, including KJV, NKJV, NIV, and NLT, and they all say it's verse 22. What translation are you using? I'm not sure what the difference is, but considering Jehoshaphat sees this conversation, I think either answer would work. Can you confirm that, Jeho?

[Jehoshaphat]

Either answer would work but I have 11:22 down as the correct answer.

[Woody]

Look good to you guys? I changed Answer #1 a bit, I figured it was a more broad answer.

[John Chrysostom]

I think it might be a bit too broad, I feel like they were asking for one person; either Adam or Eve.

[Woody]

Any clarification you can provide, Jeho?

[Jehoshaphat]

I would accept either answer but Adam is more correct and is the answer I had in reference to Romans 5
