How much do you know about the Beatitudes? This
quiz is taken from Matthew 5:1-12. Click on the highlighted
answer you think is correct and follow the directions. (Why don't
you read the passage from you Bible, close your Bible, and then
try answering the questions?) Good luck! 2. You
are right. The merciful will be shown mercy. Now try #34. 3.
Wrrrrong . Go back to #20. 5. You
are wrong. Try #13 again. 6. No,
that's not right. Go back to
#22. 7. No, a
beatitude is not a commandment. Go back to #1 and try again. 8. Yes,
the meek shall inherit the earth. That's just the opposite of
what the world thinks, isn't it? Move on to #13. 9. The
temple was not the location of the sermon containing the
beatitudes. Go back to #4. 10. No,
the poor in spirit will inherit the kingdom of heaven, remember? Return to #29.
11. Paul
preached a lot of sermons, but someone else preached the sermon
with the beatitudes in it. Back
to #16. 12.
Correct. The sermon that includes the beatitudes was spoken on a
mountain. Now try question
#16. 14.
Right! A beatitude is a declaration of blessedness. Now go to #4. 15.
Inner peace is great, but that isn't what the beatitude about the
merciful says. Try #22 again. 18. No,
try again. Back to #38. 19. Yes,
those who mourn will be comforted. Go down one number to question #20. 21. No.
A prophecy is a proclamation of the word and will of God.
Sometimes, but not always, prophecies foretell the future. Go back to #1 and try again. 23.
Right, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after
righteousness." Are you hungering and thirsting after
righteousness? Go up one
number to #22. 24.
Correct. The pure in heart will see God someday. Now try the last question in the quiz,
#38. 25.
There is a beatitude that says, "Blessed are the
persecuted", but doesn't say they will be called sons of
God. Go back to #38. 26. No.
The Bible says, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs
is the kingdom of heaven", but someone else will inherit the
earth. Go back to #20. 27. No,
abundant riches aren't promised to the poor in spirit. Go back to #17. 28. Yes,
Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount that contained the 10
beatitudes. Go on to question
# 17. 30. No,
the Bible definitely does NOT say that those who hunger and
thirst for wealth will be blessed. Try #13 again. 31. No,
sorrow isn't what belongs to the poor in spirit. Go back to #17. 32. Yes!
Jesus said the kingdom of heaven belongs to those who are poor in
spirit, those who realize how poor their spiritual condition is
and know they must rely on Jesus. Proceed to question #29. 33.
Elijah was a prophet, but he didn't preach the sermon containing
the beatitudes. Give #16
another shot. 35. You
got it. The peacemakers will be called sons of God. God Himself
is the great peacemaker, offering His Son upon the cross to make
peace with us. Thanks
