Quiz Key: Justification, Question 1

I know I said I’d post a complete answer key to the little quiz on justification today. However, once I began working on the key, I could see that if giving the answers involved giving the reasons for those answers, a complete answer key wasn’t going to be a document of blog post length. So I’ve decided to divide the key into parts and post each part as I complete it.

This post includes the answer to question 1 and the reasons for that answer. The quiz has quite a bit of redundency built into it, so I’m hoping that as I move through it, I can simply refer back to previous proofs as evidence, and then I’ll be able to include more than one question in each post. 

I’ve also decided that when I can, I will use the recently posted Westminster Catechism questions and answers as proof of the historical reformed protestant answers to the quiz questions. I will also try to give some scriptural evidence for each answer. 

Do you have your red pencil ready?

Quiz: Justification

Updated on Friday, July 27, 2007 at 12:19PM by rebecca

I like making them, and people seem to like doing them, so it’s a shame it’s been so long since we’ve had a theological quiz. This one is on justification.  It is, as you might expect, from a historic reformed protestant* position on the subject, so if you want to get an A+ on the quiz, then you have to give the historic reformed protestant answers.

I will attempt to give a short justification for the answers I accept as correct when I post the answers to the quiz on Saturday.

Ready, set, go: Choose the one option that is most correct.

Those of you who enjoyed reading oldest son’s blog might enjoy reading his work on The Literacy Blog. It’s the blog of the Yukon Literacy Coalition, where son is the communications officer, and the format of the blog has recently been changed so that it includes more of son’s own work. He writes that he plans to contribute “interesting literacy facts, stories, quotes, links and whatever else I think you’ll find interesting,” like this post on medieval underwear, for instance.
