These are written so that you may continue to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing in him you will have life by the power of his name (John 20:31, NLT).
After writing 1699 Interruptions, which contain the same total number of words as in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy, it’s time to give the “OG’s New Testament Intelligence Test” to see what you have learned.
Below are ten bits of knowledge or wisdom that I’ve harped on and on about throughout the last four and a half years of my writing Interruptions. Answers are listed at the end (don’t cheat), and the “OG’s New Testament Intelligence Test” reveals this about you:
- Getting 1 to 3 right indicates jeopardy of losing your salvation.
- Getting 4 to 6 right reveals the need for a fresh infilling of the Spirit.
- Getting 7 to 9 right proves you are growing in Christ.
- Getting 10 right gives you a seat at the Wedding Feast of the Lamb next to me!
