Final Exam (40%)
Name: _________________________________________ ID. No. ___________________
Guidlines:
Instruction: The eight reflection questions from the two epistles of Corinthians—four from each—
are included below. Use the time allotted to think back on the lessons you took away from the study
of each epistle as you prepare your response to the given case in point. Since this is the final exam
for the Epistles of Corinthians, answers based primarily on the two epistles of Corinth will
generally be given favor over answers based on other biblical passages.
Due date and time: You have 24 hours to finish this final exam.
(Complete and turn in before Saturday mid-night, August 10, 2024 before 11:59 PM)
Mark: Every question will be scored out of five.
Types of Exam: Its open book!
(However, using online resources and having your response generated by artificial intelligence (AI)
is strictly forbidden. If you are found to have done either, you will disqualified from this course.)
Questions:
1. Presume that members of the church you attend are divided on the subject of ethnic identity and
have organized into groups according to their ethnic heritage. What would you say, then, if you
were given the chance to write a correctional letter like Paul did?
2. Similar to the Corinthian Church, the modern church views moral behavior from the perspective of
selfish gain. What would you say in response if you had the opportunity to fix this?
(Case: "Someone arguing that living together prior to marriage is okay")
3. What are the guidelines for "Using Spiritual Gifts" that are presented in 1 Corinthians 12–14?
(Case: Presume you are requested to talk on this subject at a congregation gathering solely on the
basis of this section.)
4. Imagine that you are a young Christian's mentor. There is a mentee among you who is having
difficulty understanding the doctrine of believer's resurrection. How then can you persuade him/her
that the historical resurrection of Jesus and the future resurrection of Christians are real?
5. How does the ministry of the New Testament differ from that of the Old Testament?
6. Could you please explain what the proper motivation for a minister in the New Testament ministry
should be?
7. According to 1st Cor. 16 and 2nd Cor. 8–9, what are the basic principles of "offering" or "giving to
other brothers in need"?
8. Three accusations were made against Paul in 2 Corinthians 10, and he did a great job of refuting
them. What were the accusations against him, and how did he respond to them?
Notice:
Kindly, I ask you, not to copy straight from the textbook or any other references I have provided.
Instead, personalize it and act as though you actually are in that situation. I can assess your
comprehension of the lessons contained in these epistles in this way. Many blessings!
You are welcome to use as much space as you like for reflection.
