Pretty much everything I missed were the things I didn't agree with. That is probably the same with everyone.


A few of the questions were worded weird: 1) "Christ has already defeated hell." this could mean several different things, 2) the one about the Rich man, every translation I read has said Hades or "in torment." and not specifically Hell. 3) If we forget God, we will end up in hell could also mean many different things

In summary, the quiz is bias. That class has ruined my life.

I stopped after question 18. The question was, "Did all demons get put into hell" and I answered no because it's obvious there are demons all around us still, yet it was wrong. A few other questions were worded wrongly. Like the hell question, referencing an Old Testament verse to ask a New Testament question.

I was in the high-90's, but the questions...like, "Did Jesus defeat hell?" Okay, let's answer that question with a prophetic text written in Revelation that didn't happen yet. So if I answer no, I'm wrong according to the question, even though it hasn't happened yet.

I'm going to take it again to critique every question

1) Heaven is a literal place that God has prepared for his children. - Heaven is a literal place, but the purpose of Heaven is much greater than just a place for us.
2) Christians should set their affection on things both on earth and heaven. - This is true. What you do in this life matters. This is one of them that was poorly worded.
3) Christians will join with angels in heaven to worship God. - technically true, but also technically false, Heaven is not an eternal worship service.
4) The path to heaven is wide and many will find it. - this is true
5) Heaven is described as a beautiful city. - true
6) Satan and the archangel Michael were cast down from heaven. - true. Not going to lie, this one almost tripped me up last night and I thought "was another archangel cast down?"
7) God will create a new heaven and new earth - true
8) At Christ's return there will be a great army from heaven with Him. - True according to Revelation
9) We must have the faith of a child to enter heaven - true. I'm not sure what the comparison between mustard seed face and child faith
10) Heaven is the throne of God and the earth a place of His resting. - False
11) Jesus ascended into heaven. - True
12) There will be marriage in heaven. - Poorly worded. The marriage between Christ and the church is a big theme in Revelation, but this is talking about marriage between people.
13) Christ has already defeated hell. - False, last time I checked. Also, the verse I got had nothing to do with this. I don't think "I have the keys to Hell" means what they thought it meant. If this had been worded Christ defeated death and/or sin, then yes.
14) Those not found in the book of life will be cast into the lake of fire. - True
15) It is better to live without eyes if they offend you than going to hell. - True
16) If we forget God, we will end up in hell. - This is the worst question on here. Not only was I like "what do you mean, forget God?" The verse is worse, Psalm 9:17 really says "Sheol" which is just a realm of the dead. It was clearly an example of "find a random verse that kinds works, and we'll tweak it to make it work"
17) Punishment for the unrighteous is forever. - True, but no one is righteous.
18) Angels that have sinned have been cast down to hell - I think this was the one Saucy was talking about it. Also, it cites a verse in 2nd Peter, which according to the verse, again makes the answer true. Even though, technically it is false. It also doesn't say "all angels"
19) In hell there will be a literal fire. - according to the traditional interpretation, true
20) Even in hell it will be confessed that Jesus Christ is Lord. - Um, I don't know. The verse (Phil. 2:9-11) "under the Earth" could mean anything, not necessarily Hell. I can see where they get that.
21) Jesus did not descend into hell. - Something I've haven't heard much about. They also pick a verse with vague language.
22) Jesus preached about hell - This question needs more than just true and false.
23) Jesus spoke of a rich man who died and went to hell. - Every translation I've read has said torment or Hades, not Hell. Yeah, it's what they're getting at, but depending on your background, you would also think it was just a story
24) The path to hell is narrow because God loves all. - Terribly worded question. God loves everyone, but the path to Hell is not narrow.
25) Satan will be tormented forever - according to Revelation, true.

Don't agree with you on a few of your assessments. For instance #4 you say the path to heaven is broad and many will find it. What makes you say that? I'm not accusing you of anything but are you a universalist or inclusionist? The book of Matthew clearly states the path to eternal life is narrow.

Also have to disagree with you on #17. You say no one is righteous but we are made righteous through the finished work of Jesus Christ. Romans 5:19 For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous.

Just saw this post, and you didn't answer my question. I can tell by the way you danced around the questions you're a universialist. You don't want to admit that?

I got 85% on the quiz. Although there is some confusion with one of the questions. When a sinner dies either he is annihilated or suffers eternal torment. I have been watching some televangelist programs and they have been preaching that the sinner will not face eternal torment but destruction. They have scriptural references to back themselves up to.

What televangelist programs? Just curious. Annihilation is JW doctrine and borderline heresy.
