Correct Answer: D) Help in the distribution of food

Explanation

This Christian Religious Knowledge question is asking about the appointment of seven deacons. The options are given to help identify the reason for their appointment.

The correct option is D, which states that the deacons were appointed to help in the distribution of food. This means that the deacons were responsible for ensuring that food was distributed fairly among the members of the church.

It is important to note that the deacons were not appointed to conduct a mission to the Gentiles (Option A) or to replace the twelve (Option B). Additionally, while preaching the Gospel (Option E) is an important function of the church, it was not the specific reason for the appointment of the seven deacons.

The deacons were appointed to lead the church in Jerusalem (Option C) in the sense that they were responsible for ensuring that the needs of the members were met. However, their primary function was to help in the distribution of food.

This event is recorded in the book of Acts chapter 6, where the apostles appointed the seven deacons to assist with the daily distribution of food to the widows. This allowed the apostles to focus on prayer and the ministry of the word.

In summary, the seven deacons were appointed to help in the distribution of food to the members of the church. This was an important function that allowed the apostles to focus on prayer and ministry.

This question is asking about the age of Joseph when he started his work as a governor in Egypt. According to the Bible, Joseph was one of the sons of Jacob and was sold into slavery by his brothers. He was taken to Egypt, where he was eventually released from prison by Pharaoh and became second in command over all of Egypt.

Explanation

In Jerusalem, by the sheep gate, there was a pool called Bethzatha where a multitude of invalid people assembled. There was one of them who had been paralysed for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw the lame man and asked if he wanted to be healed, the man said he had nobody to put him into the pool. Jesus then told him to take his pallet and walk. Immediately, the lame man took his pallet and walked. That was on the Sabbath day. When the Jews saw the man who had just been healed carrying his pallet on the Sabbath, they accused him for doing what was unlawful on the Sabbath. The man told them that it was Jesus who instructed him to carry his pallet. He was told to identify the man, but he could not because Jesus had walked away into the crowd. Later in the day, he saw Jesus in the temple who warned him to sin no more, lest worse evil would befall him. The man went to tell the Jews that Jesus was the man that healed him. The Jews accused Jesus of healing on the Sabbath. Jesus told them that since his father was still working, he too was active.

Two reasons why Jesus was criticized are:

(i) He was criticized for calling himself the son of God, thereby claiming equality with God. This was considered a blasphemy.

(ii) He was equally criticized for working on the Sabbath day, i.e. He did not keep the Sabbath law.
