DEDICATION

This book is dedicated to God the father, God the Son and God the

Holy Spirit.

It is also dedicated to all Christians of the world and all those that will

still be born again in this world.

INTRODUCTION

This book contains over one thousand (1000) questions with answers from the Bible.

The answers are accompanied by Bible references to make the answers more explicit.

The book is educative, relaxing, entertaining and above all, it makes the user an expert on the word of God as there are some Bible passages cited that must be read.

The questions are written in a way that does not allow much repetition. Even in areas where there are two or more accounts of an event, there are no repeated questions.

In books like Exodus, Numbers and Deuteronomy, questions are not repeated. The same also applies to the Gospels, I & II Kings and I & II Chronicles.

There are also questions that cut across the Old and the New Testaments. These are eye openers to some hidden facts in the Bible.

The book contains some puzzles which are brain tasking and enjoyable.

The book is a life time necessity for any Christian both young and adult.

Relax and enjoy yourself as you use this book.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

This is to acknowledge God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit who put the idea of writing this book in my spirit and gave me the enablement to bring it to reality.

I also acknowledge my father in the Lord, the spiritual father of multitudes. He prayed on my request that God should give me a direction on what to do with the time I had after my retirement. Within a few months after his prayers, I was able to produce this book.

I greatly appreciate the efforts of my husband, Professor I.O.A Adeleye and all my family members in proof-reading this manuscript and their encouragement.

I also thank Dr. P.O. Adesoye who willingly accepted to write the foreword on this book.

I thank every other person that was involved in making this work a success. God bless you all and grant you your heart desires.

FOREWORD

A victorious Christian life is predicated on accurate knowledge of the Word of God. One of the sterling qualities that distinguish Jesus, our Master and friend from the devil is a good grasp on the Word of God. No wonder He counsels His followers to search the scriptures (John 5:39).

In this end time, Christian living is superficial with little attention given to an accurate knowledge of the Word of God. Believers need to examine or weigh themselves on how much of the Word of God they have in their spirits as a man cannot speak or do more than he has on the inside.

The author has, in a unique manner, put together a masterpiece that will help and challenge any heaven-focused believer to assess and examine his/her knowledge of the Word of God. This book will take you through the whole Bible in a systematic and fascinating manner.

For those who yearn to be partakers of the divine nature and live a daily life of victory over the wiles and the deceptions of the devil, this book is a must read. I therefore recommend this book to all believers without any reservations.

Wishing you gracious encounters as you read.
