1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday. F
2) Culture is the tool of the devil. T most of the time. The devil will use whatever tools he can.
3) Inanimate objects can be evil. F The objects themselves are neither good/bad. It is our obsession with those objects, our love for them, what we make of them, which is evil.
4) The theory of evolution is correct. Who can prove/disprove any theory, really?
5) The Earth is millions of years old. T
6) There are Angels on Earth right now. T
7) God has a sense of humor. T Thank God!! lol
8) Jesus could have a living bloodline. T Anything is possible.
9) Judas is in Hell. Don't know
10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons. T
11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time. F Hmm... I'd like to know how that would be possible. Since there are Christian Jews, I suppose it is not IMpossible.
12) Jesus did smite people. Not sure. If verbal scoldings/reprimands count, then True
13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God. T unless they are possessed with demons and are speaking demontalk
14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe. Not sure
15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers. LOL
16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church) F There are some interesting threads on this topic in other parts of the forum.

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday.
Depends what you mean. It's the celebration of His birth, but the actual date is unknown.

2) Culture is the tool of the devil.
No idea what that's supposed to mean. I suppose it can be used for good or bad purposes, like nearly everything else.

3) Inanimate objects can be evil.
Again, things can be used for good or bad; in and of themselves, just neutral.

4) The theory of evolution is correct.
Can't answer unless you define what you are referring to.

5) The Earth is millions of years old.
I tend to not think so.

6) There are Angels on Earth right now.
True. May not be visible, but they're around.

7) God has a sense of humor.
I would think so.

8) Jesus could have a living bloodline.
Technically possible, but Scripture seems to suggest highly unlikely.

9) Judas is in Hell.
Not enough info to know.

10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons.
I lean towards 'true'.

11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time.
False.

12) Jesus did smite people.
Depends on what you mean by "smite", and depends on who you specifically refer to when you say "Jesus" (as God, or specifically during His incarnation as "Jesus".) He did drive the money changers out of the temple with a whip. But I don't believe He ended anyone's life during His earthly ministry.

13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God.
Possible, but the people I've personally seen do it didn't seem to be genuine.

14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe.
I doubt it. Likely just a myth.

15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers.
In and of themselves, no. Any actual "power" through them would be from Satan.

16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church)
Don't know. See too many arguments on both sides.

17) Ghosts are real.
There are spirits, but I'm fairly certain they are not our dead relatives if that's what you mean.

18) Nostradamus could see the future.
False, he was a fake.

19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate.
Very false.

20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven.
May depend on what you actually mean by "hell". By the common use, false.

Hi again folks,

Please enjoy taking this little quiz.

I will not be grading this quiz, as I am unsure of some of the answers.

If you'd like to open a discussion about any of these questions, please start a new thread or visit a thread already in progress.

This is a non-scientific quiz.

Thank you.

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday.

False. Jesus' birthday was likely in the Spring of 6 B.C. according to many historians.

2) Culture is the tool of the devil.

False. Culture can be a tool of the devil, but then again so can love. In The Great Divorce, C.S. Lewis makes a compelling argument that those things that have the greatest capacity for good also have the greatest capacity for evil.

3) Inanimate objects can be evil.

True. Almost anything can be evil.

4) The theory of evolution is correct.

Possibly. Darwinian evolution has its weaknesses as a scientific theory, but I don't believe that faith in the Bible precludes belief in evolution of some sort, whether Darwinian or not.

5) The Earth is millions of years old.

Possibly. See answer for #4.

6) There are Angels on Earth right now.

True, I think.

7) God has a sense of humor.

Definitely, true.

8) Jesus could have a living bloodline.

Probably false, because if Jesus had had children, one would think the Bible would mention it. But, the lack of mention of children in the Bible does not preclude the possibility that Jesus was perhaps a widower with children. But, I would tend to say that this is false.

9) Judas is in Hell.

Likely false, but I don't know. The Bible says that Judas repented, so a strong argument could be made for his salvation.

10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons.

False. Even if you accept a literalist brand of creationism, I would think that God would have provided them with belly buttons, even if only for appearance, just as He provided Adam with nipples, which also seem to have no utilitarian purpose. But, who knows?

11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time.

False. Either you believe that Jesus is God, or you believe that He is a prophet. The former is an essential Christian teaching. The latter is an essential Muslim teaching. Therefore, it logically follows that one cannot follow both religions faithfully.

12) Jesus did smite people.

False.

13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God.

I don't know. Although I don't believe that glossolalia is essential to salvation, and I do believe that some people fake it to deceive others, I don't doubt that many who do it are sincere. I don't know enough about the practice to know what exactly "tongues" are. My guess is that the statement is false, but I don't want to presume to have a strong opinion on something that I don't practice myself.

14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe.

Who knows?

15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers.

FALSE!!!

16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church)

False. Christians should give generously to the Church, and a tithe is a good minimum standard, but we should never pursue the minimum.

17) Ghosts are real.

Likely true.

18) Nostradamus could see the future.

FALSE!!!!

19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate.

False. Most English translations (including the KJV) have their weaknesses. Some are worthless imho (e.g., Mormon and JW translations), but most are generally good. Christians should use multiple legitimate translations to understand the Scriptures more completely.

20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven.

True. This would be an interesting topic for a new thread, as I would like to hear others' thoughts on this.

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday. No, but it is the celebration of it somehow?
2) Culture is the tool of the devil. Depends on what you mean by culture, the kind I'm thinking of, yes.
3) Inanimate objects can be evil. Nope, but perhaps cursed? Don't know.
4) The theory of evolution is correct. I don't believe one species evolved into another, but maybe adaption of species to form different aspects (such as hair color) is quite obvious.
5) The Earth is millions of years old. Depends on whether you are speaking of human years or years of God. In otherwards, I don't know
6) There are Angels on Earth right now. Well, not physically present, unless sent as a messenger or for a purpose if it is one of God's angels. Spiritually present, I think so.
7) God has a sense of humor. I think so? :)
8) Jesus could have a living bloodline. Umm... no
9) Judas is in Hell. Which Judas? the one that betrayed Jesus? No one absolutely knows, he might still be in hades.
10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons. Common sense dictates this to be so, but who knows? God didn't say they didn't?
11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time. No
12) Jesus did smite people. hmmm... do you mean when he was ministering on the earth? Then no
13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God. I would say they are speaking a language only God can understand ^_^
14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe. What's the holy grail?:tutu:
15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers. No, but spirits (demons) can have control over them, I think?:confused:
16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church) No
17) Ghosts are real. Demons are real
18) Nostradamus could see the future. Possibly, there was in the bible a girl that had a demon that told the future.
19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate. no, but the original written word is accurate.
20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven. Nope

Couldn't answer true or false, sorry

Hello all, I like these quiz' dean

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday.

False, Christmas is the conception date of Jesus. We can tell because we can figure John's birth, being 6 months earlier than Christ's.

2) Culture is the tool of the devil.

True, some culture is not led of God, but not all

3) Inanimate objects can be evil.

False, power does not denote evil or good, an idol is but a piece of wood...etc...

4) The theory of evolution is correct.

False. Mankind is not evolved from apes.

5) The Earth is millions of years old.

True. Billions....

6) There are Angels on Earth right now.

Don't know...bible says that there has been in the past, so why not....it is possible

7) God has a sense of humor.

True.

8) Jesus could have a living bloodline.

False. Only Begotten.....

9) Judas is in Hell.

Don't know. God is Judge...Judas did repent and was murdered...

10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons.

Don't know....

11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time.

Don't know. Muslim is the people, Islam is the religion...

12) Jesus did smite people.

Not to death, but cleared the temple. Showed His righteous anger...usually only to the religious authority and scribes...

13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God.

False, if you imply tongues as charismatic utterances or ecstatic speech. Tongues means languages, and being multilingual or bringing an interpreter with you to spread the Gospel of Christ to the nations....past the language barrier. 1Cor14 details how to spread the message to many that speak many different languages....by way of interpreters...multi-linguists....gifted of God, as is evident in the point that those people who do not speak Greek or Hebrew were now able to hear and understand the Word and to believe in Messiah....

we English understanding people have this gift of God to thank for us hearing and read in the Word in English today....from Hebrew to Greek to Latin to English....praise Him!

14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe.

False...Mythical... movie.....you would have to provide me with chapter and verse for further clarification.

15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers.

False. Demons are real, and they have been around for a long time....and could fool the weak minded into believing just about anything...that is one reason we need Christ as a covering over us.....so that we can be safe from demons, in His name.

16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church)

Offerings are still in need, to where you are fed the Word...the word Tithe means a tenth as you know, and was used by church and state as they were one at the time of tithing...now, that is a nice figure to follow, but any offering is acceptable and God knows all things including your financial situation...

tithe (give an offering) where you are fed...

17) Ghosts are real.

False. All departed souls return to the Father...

there may be explanations for them, as in demons pretending to be....but not human souls.

18) Nostradamus could see the future.

False. As far as I know no one can see the future unless God Himself gives vision. I have heard that Nostradamus did believe, but from biblical accounts... there are no more prophets like that. I truly believe that John was the last one.

There are no doubt those gifted of God, in the paranormal world, I believe it.

But there is also more that are fooled or guided by dark forces that Christ taught were real. That is why we are to test the spirits....

19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate.

false. Many traditions of man come from translations of certain bibles, and some bibles were actually written (translated) by some with agendas....theologically biased...only with going back to the original languages, understanding how they were used, can we really know what was truly being said....instead of relying on what translation of the Bible you like to read. Unfortunately all English translations are flawed to some degree....but the manuscripts in the original are PERFECT in every way.

20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven

there is three hells spoken of...

hell one...symbolic for the worst place imaginable....the garbage pit out side of Jerusalem.

hell two...the rich man's destination in the teaching of Lazarus and the rich man....actually the other side of a vast gulf that separates heaven....all are in heaven either on the good side or the not so good side...awaiting judgement....

hell three....the Lake of Fire...this is the destination for Satan and any that follow him...in this place, souls are 100% destroyed forever...no torture...but absolute and total blotting out....from which no one can escape.

in His service

19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate.

False. Most English translations (including the KJV) have their weaknesses. Some are worthless imho (e.g., Mormon and JW translations), but most are generally good. Christians should use multiple legitimate translations to understand the Scriptures more completely.

20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven.

True. This would be an interesting topic for a new thread, as I would like to hear others' thoughts on this.

Check out the "There is no hell" thread in this forum. We're talking about this heavily there. Universalism is also discussed or dismissed there as well depending on which side you take.

Check out the "There is no hell" thread in this forum. We're talking about this heavily there. Universalism is also discussed or dismissed there as well depending on which side you take.
And I'm STILL waiting for our universalist friends to provide equal scripture detail showing us all the elaborate process of when they get reevaluated, pardoned (what they did to recieve pardon & 'salvation' after dead), then how God lets them back out & where God puts them.
We have the details in how they get IN, yet nothing exists that teaches them getting back out in any detail; everything is "read in" to other passages and/or taken out of their context to make the assertion.

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday - we don't know what actual day it was.
2) Culture is the tool of the devil. Satan uses anything as a tool - but God told us the 'world' is in rebellion to Him.
3) Inanimate objects can be evil. They can be made evil in what they represent. God forbid idols to be made for a reason. I believe objects made for Satan's service directly are 'cursed objects' and can allow an opening to Satan to work against you more effectively.
4) The theory of evolution is correct. I'm anti evolution - but I don't know science. God said "let there be, and it was"
5) The Earth is millions of years old. Good luck proving this, and I honestly don't care - GOD IS CREATOR.;)
6) There are Angels on Earth right now. Physically?Possibly yes, again, good luck proving that.
7) God has a sense of humor. Yep
8) Jesus could have a living bloodline. NOT A CHANCE
9) Judas is in Hell. Yes, John 17 spells this out.
10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons. oh dear :doh:
11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time. False - we either worship the one True God, or we do not (Christ is the only way to the Father)
12) Jesus did smite people. He made a whip, but it doesn't say if he struck anyone - it doesn't give us that info.
13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God. I stay out of the tongues subjects, too many people focus on the lesser gifts - and those that use them often MISuse them as per Paul's guidelines.
14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe. :tutu:
15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers. The cards don't have the powers - the spirits that work thru the occult items have the powers. God forbids us to use the occult to seek anything.
16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church) We pay tithes - I believe the OT 10% is a good model & example to use. What's a dime out of a dollar??
My issue is people who refuse to give much of anything to God's kingdom; their hearts & attitudes are what God looks at - I'd be worried!
17) Ghosts are real. Ghosts are DEMONS - not people who come back & wander around... they are real.
18) Nostradamus could see the future. Disagree, he had some false predictions.
19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate. Define accurate ^_^. I don't think all of them are equally accurate - some are more reliable than others. But it's important to know that whatever version you use, GOD CAN SPEAK TO YOU & TEACH YOU THRU IT even with it's slight translational discrepancies. God's arm isn't too short to reach those who believe Him.
20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven. No they cannot... despite the heavy debating going on in this forum right now to push Universalism; it defeats the necessity of salvation which Jesus commanded we MUST have.
"it is appointed man once to die, THEN JUDGMENT". The lost go to the white throne judgment, the saints to the Bema Seat of Christ.

If you are going to start threads and request no discussion, don't start them here, as this is a place for discussion.
The original poster sets the topic for discussion. My topic is a quiz. That's all.

I'm not saying 'do not say your views.' I openly ask people to leave whatever comments they would like.

But since there are 20 questions, and in the spirit of making this thread easy to follow, and not some disjointed mess that jumps around 20 topics, I have asked anyone who would like to discuss any of these topics to start a new thread, or join a similar discussion already in progress. Where did I ever say that I wanted "no discussion"? I clearly said that anyone can discuss any topic they like, as long as they do it in an appropriate place.

So, either you are trying to say that I do not want these questions discussed, which is clearly not what stated, or you want this thread to house 20 different discussions at once, which would be impossible to follow.

And frankly, whatever your reason is, I don't appreciate your tone. This is just a quiz. Nobody is forcing anyone to take this quiz. There is no purpose to this quiz other than you can take it if you like, and read how others have answered if you like.

And, in keeping with the spirit of the first 20 question quiz, I am not grading this quiz, as I am unsure of many of the answers.

If you don't like the quiz, skip it. If the quiz raises a topic that you would like to discuss, start a new thread, or join a discussion already in progress.

Why is this so hard to understand?

Well it does seem to be that you are saying that. The post above added clarity, but your op was lacking in it.

And don't read too much into tone, it's hard to convey over the net.

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday. False. We don't really know when He was born...
2) Culture is the tool of the devil. True. It can be.
3) Inanimate objects can be evil. False.
4) The theory of evolution is correct. False..except micro evolution (change of allele frequencies in a given population. Not change or modification from one species to another,etc).
5) The Earth is millions of years old. Maybe...whatever the case, God made it. :)
6) There are Angels on Earth right now. True.
7) God has a sense of humor. True..haha I think so.
8) Jesus could have a living bloodline. False.
9) Judas is in Hell. I have no idea.
10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons. don't know! funny question though :)
11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time. False, because Islam teaches that Jesus was merely a prophet...
12) Jesus did smite people. False. I don't think so.
13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God. I don't know about the 'language of God' part, but I believe that speaking in tongues is one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe. no clue..
15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers. False. Except that demons can sometimes use them. the cards themselves don't have any power.
16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church) They don't NEED to, they should only do it if the Holy Spirit is telling them...no one should be forced by others to give money; that's manipulative, and God loves a cheerful giver :)
17) Ghosts are real. False
18) Nostradamus could see the future. I don't know much about him or his predictions.
19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate. Logically, some translations would be closer than others to the original languages...however, it's the Holy Spirit that helps us understand the Bible, so I think all versions are acceptable and true. I use NIV myself :)
20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven. False. But I don't know for sure, I'm leaving it up to God.

1) Christmas is Jesus' birthday - not even close, December 25 was chosen to offset the pagan holiday of Saturnalia to help unite Rome in the 4th century AD. Best estimates have Him being born late September based on the birth of John the Baptist.


2) Culture is the tool of the devil - True. The prince of this world is Satan, everything in it is his, except those of us sealed by the Holy Spirit.

3) Inanimate objects can be evil. Not true. Inanimate objects can be used as tools of evil but by and in themselves only have the power we give them.

4) The theory of evolution is correct. - Pfft … please. After the publication of the human gnome no scientist believes in Darwin’s theory. The best they can come up with is intelligent design ,,, but still they try to deny God.

5) The Earth is millions of years old. - As time is not a constant it is imposable to tell. I believe in a young earth.

6) There are Angels on Earth right now.- Hbr 13:2Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

7) God has a sense of humor.-Very True.

8) Jesus could have a living bloodline.-Not Possible.

9) Judas is in Hell.- As Judas died before the resurrection he awaits his judgment in Sheol.


10) Adam and Eve had no bellybuttons.- No way to know.

11) A person can be both Christian and Muslim at the same time.- False
Christian: Etymology: Latin christianus, adjective & noun, from Greek christianos, from Christos
1 a : one who professes belief in the teachings of Jesus Christ
Muslim: Etymology: Arabic muslim, literally, one who submits (to God)
1 : an adherent of Islam

12) Jesus did smite people.- True. It was Jesus in an OT appearance that lead the battle of Jericho in the book of Joshua.

13) People who speak in tongues are speaking the language of God.- 1Cr 14:6¶Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?

14) The Holy Grail is still intact and safe.- Who knows?

15) Tarot Cards have supernatural powers.- See #3

16) Christians need to tithe (pay 10% to the church)- Need? … no
Should? Mal 3:10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].

17) Ghosts are real.- If you refer to a disembodied soul False If you refer to a spirit of demon then true.

18) Nostradamus could see the future.- False.. If he could then all his predictions would prove true.

19) All translations of the Bible are equally accurate.- More accurate to say all translations are inaccurate due to the nature of language. Some have deliberate mis-translations, other not so deliberate.

20) Once in Hell, a person can go to Heaven. Depends … are you speaking of Sheol, or Haides, the abode of the dead before the resurrection? Then yes. If you are speaking of Geenna, the place of future punishment, then no.

I enjoyed your answers BustedFlat!

One thing I Noticed is how everyone seems to be in agreement that God has a sense of humor LOL.

One thing to ask, I notice you're info on Christ leading the BAttle of Jericho - do you have any links that go into Christ's appearances in the OT? I believe it was Him, I just don't know how to go about evidences.

Just curious about that. (no rush!!):wave: :hug:
God bless U
