Bible Q & A

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1 – We all know that Jesus grew up in Nazareth. But as He was beginning His ministry what city became His chosen home? Matthew 4:13 CSB

2. In Luke 7 CSB one of the miracles that Jesus did was the healing of the Centurion’s servant. There are four statements related to the Centurion below. Choose the incorrect statement from the story.

TRUE/FALSE

• ___Capernaum was listed as one of the cities that Jesus would eventually denounce because of unbelief. Matthew 7:21-23 CSB

• Capernaum is known for the miracles of healing the woman with the issue of blood and raising Jairus’ daughter. Mark 5 CSB

One point from this Q&A that stood out to me is that the centurion had built a synagogue for the Jews, and was unashamedly welcomed and respected by them. Obviously, he was wealthy and held a position of power. But he also must have been unafraid. After all, Romans and Jews were bitter enemies.

Our Lord works in mystifying and wonderful ways.

Despite being a Roman soldier with a pagan background, he displayed humility before Jesus. His good deeds benefited the Jews and brought him happiness, but they were not the reason why his servant was healed or for his own salvation.

Remember, “…not of works so that no one can boast.” This man was saved by grace alone.

God wanted these people to have their miracles. But most importantly, He wanted them to be saved, just like He wants all of us to be.

If you love Jesus, share your faith in your world.
