23. Choose the summary you find to be the most Biblical:
A. As Christ's kingdom comes on Earth through the centuries, satan will continue "on the loose" and growing stronger also. Finally, to make it clear to all that only God Himself can vanquish him, Christ will appear and do just that, condemning the devil to the lake of fire forever. B. The devil was bound and his kingdom plundered by the redemption which Jesus Christ accomplished by His death and resurrection: there the serpent's head was dealt a mortal blow. At the last judgment, the devil will be condemned to eternal punishment and never be able to cause harm again. C. Although it has been said in jest, the statement "the devil made me do it" has a lot of truth in it.

Thankfully, Jesus has paid the ransom to satan that was necessary to make salvation possible. D. The devil is not a real, personal entity.

25. Which brief example of "reasoning in the Scriptures" do you find most persuasive?
A. Since the Bible says that God created the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, in six days (i.e. everything, Genesis 1, Exodus 20:11), the angels were made by God sometime during those six days. Since "the heavens" were created on day one, the angels were likely created on that day. B. Since the Bible says that God created the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, in six days (i.e. everything, Genesis 1, Exodus 20:11), that includes the angels. The heavenly bodies (sun, moon, and stars) were created on day four, so the angels who are dwellers in heaven were likely created on that day also. Also, Job 48:7 seems to refer to angels as "stars", as do a few verses in Revelation. C. Job 48:4-7 also seems to indicate that the angels already existed when God "laid the foundations of the earth". Surely the angels were created by God, but they seem to be part of a different, older creation than ours. D. Often in Scripture, angels appear in human form. Jesus said that in the resurrection the saints will be "like angels" (Cf. Matthew 22:30, Mark 12:35). When an angel is measuring the wall of the New Jerusalem in Revelation, we read, "...he measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel." It is most likely that the angels were created on day six as were Adam and Eve.
