Bible Quizzing 2009-2010
1st & 2nd Corinthians
Basic Questions 
What book are we studying this year?
1 Corinthians and 2 Corinthians
Is there a certain translation of the Bible we should be using?
Study
only
the New International Version. While other versions are appropriate forpersonal edification and knowledge, they are not used to create the questions and answersfor the EFCA’s bible quizzing. Be aware, if your answer is word-perfect from anothertranslation, it can still be wrong if it does not match the NIV.
What kinds of questions are asked in Bible Quizzing?
There are four kinds of questions generally used:1.Regular Questions: These questions usually have simple and straightforwardanswers. Answers do not need to be word-perfect, but should demonstrate thatthe quizzer knows what they are talking about.2.Multi-part Questions: These questions are answered with a list of answers. If thelist is between 2 parts and 6 parts, the quiz master will tell you when asking thequestion. If the list is more than 6 parts, they will simply tell you it is a multi-partanswer.3.Reference Questions: Some questions may be identical in different parts of thebook, but have very different answers. In this case, the quiz master will tell youthe reference of where the question comes from before asking it. For thesequestions, answers are expected to be word-perfect, and if the quizzer jumpsbefore the full question is asked, they must complete the question, as well.4.Situation Questions: While it is important to know what was said in scripture, itis also important to know who said it and why. For situation questions, the quizmaster will tell you what he wants to know about a statement and then will readthe statement. If the quizzer jumps before the full statement is said, they mustcomplete it as well.5.Finish-the-Verse Questions: While quizzing in general is targeted to understandthe text, Finish-the-Verse questions are targeted at exact Bible Memorization. Anumber of verses from the text will be chosen as possible FTV questions, and atleast 3 will be asked in each quiz. A quizzer must answer these questions word-perfect, including the whole verse (or several verses) in the FTV listing, withreference.
 
Can we have an example of each type of question?
1.Regular Question:
Q: For the message of the cross is foolishness to WHO?A: Those who are perishing (1 Corinthians 1:18)
2.Multi-Part Question:
 Q: 4 Part: You yourselves are WHAT?A: (1) Our letter, (2) written on our hearts, (3) known and (4) read by everybody.(2 Cointhians 3:2)
3.Reference Question:
Q: According to 2 Corinthians 3:3, WHAT letter?A: You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink butwith the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
4.Situation Question:
Q: How is it said? - “He catches the wise in their craftiness"A: As it is written (1 Corinthians 3:19)
5.Finish-the-Verse Question:
Q: Finish this Verse: “Love is patient,...”A: “...love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.“" (1 Corinthians 13:4)
How much time do I have to answer a question?
Quizzers have 30 seconds to answer most questions. But for Finish-the-Verse and Multi-Part questions, quizzers have 45 seconds.
How do you score points in bible quizzing?
Answering a question correctly will gain you 20 points for the team. If you answer 5questions correctly (4 for lower division), you “quiz out” and can not answer any morequestions. If you also got no questions wrong, you get a 10 point bonus on quizzing out.Also, a team can earn a 10 point bonus when 4 quizzers have answered a questioncorrectly, and 10 more points when a 5
th
quizzer answers correctly.If you get a question wrong, your team loses 10 points and the other team has a chance toanswer a bonus question to gain 10 points. If you answer 3 questions wrong per quiz,you “quiz out wrong” and can not answer any more questions.
Are there different levels for Bible Quizzing?
For the major meets, we break up by grade into Lower Division (7
th
- 9
th
grade) andUpper Division (10
th
- 12
th
grade).For weekly practices and lesser meets, teams are chosen by other criteria such as skilllevel, complementary talents, etc. in whatever form is best for the group as a whole.
