Starting things off.....
FAITHBOOK
Back again is the social network
to its holy roots. 100 up for grabs in this round.
1. Adam was told NOT to eat the fruit from the Tree of
Knowledge of what- Life, Good & Evil, Sin or Fantasy
Football?
The Crusaders know it's Good &
Evil. Good for them! Next.....
2. Who posted the entry "Look at this homecoming feast
prepared in my honor. My favorite. BBQ'd Fatted Calf.
I should talk off and squander my family's estate more
often!"- Paris Hilton, Jonathan, Good Samaritan or
Prodigal Son?
The Jewels say it's Prodigal son
and.....is RIGHT! Last one.
3. Who posted the entry "Thanks for all the get well
wishes. In case you hadn't HEARD, my ear was
miraculously healed! But don't tell my mom-- she'll
talk it off again! Time to unfriend Peter"- Van Gogh,
Matthew, Malchus or Judas?
The Ambassadors fire away with
Malchus and everyone's on the board! Next up.....
YOU
DON'T KNOW ME FROM ADAM
Do you know these people? First
off.....
A: I've moved more times than the St. Louis Rams
B: My sons-in-law don't take me seriously- they've
gone from deadbeats to just dead.
C: My wife's a pillar of the community, literally
The Jewels think it's
Lot.....and it's LOT!
A: I'm rich, beautiful, intelligent & modest
The Ambassadors fire with
Esther, but that ain't it. The Crusaders get Queen of
Sheba....that too ain't it. Jewels all by themselves
and this.....
B: My first husband was such a fool, his name actually
means "fool"
They get Abigail for the score.
Last one....
A: I'm no Criss Angel, but I've performed some amazing
feats
B: Multiplying loaves of bread
C: J.C. stole my bit
The Ambassadors fire with Jesus
Christ and for the first time, they're in the minus.
First time in the show's history this had to happen.
Keep going.....
D: I don't cut ladies in half, but I did part the
Jordan River once
The Crusaders say Elijah.....no.
In the negatives they go. Another Bible first with a
team tied in negative scores. The jewels can sweep it
as we continue.....
E: I learned from the best, Elijah the Great
Elisha gives them the clean sweep! Well done. Moving
on to.....
DOODLERONOMY
More drawing bits from the
bible. The Crusaders go first. They get Rainbow,
Samson, 10 commandments and King Solomon, but didn't
get torches & staff. The Jewels will be next and they
only get Fish & Chariot. They were swamped on Moses,
Tower of Babel, goliath and honey. The Ambassadors
will be last up. In 60 ticks, they get Burning Bush
and Jesus, but didn't get coat of many colors, fig
leaves and sea of Galilee. That means the Crusaders
are out of the hole with 100. We move on to....
KIRK'S RIGHTEOUS REMIX
Let's rock out with Heavenly
Metal. The Jewels will start out with this....
During his confrontation w/ the prophets, Elijah
called fire down upon what manmade structure?
They say Altar....and IT IS!
The Crusaders have this, too.
In the book of Joshua, the commander of God's army
asked Joshua to take off what article of clothing
before the Battle of Jericho?
They say shoes...it's good, but
sandals is what we wanted. Either way, it's a score.
The Ambassadors wrap up with this....
In Chapter 4 of Song of Songs, the man described his
wife's temples as halves of what exotic fruit?
They say it's figs....but no.
Pomegranate was teh pick they should've have.
Next.....
BIBLE
OR BARD
Can it be from the Bible or can
it be from William Shakespeare? Let's find out.
2-player action as the Ambassadors start with this....
"A friend should bear his friend's infirmities"
It's BIble....but it's bard.
It's from Julius Caesar. The Crusaders have this.....
"Keep me as the apple of your eye, hide me in the
shadow of your wings"
It's Bible.....and it's RIGHT!
The Jewels wrap it up with this.....
"Those I love have turned against me. I am nothing but
skin and bones"
It may be Bard....but it's
Bible. Still no score. Moving on to....
KIDS
SAYETH THE CUTEST THINGS
We get a video of a kid talking
about Matthew and we begin with the Ambassadors and
this.
According to Matthew, Jesus would be called by what
name that means "God with us"?
Easy pickings. It was Immanuel.
Good job. The Crusaders have a question.
What widow & prophet gave thanks to God when she saw
the Christ Child?
Hannah.....no. Anna. Thank god
for name confusion. The Jewels will lock it up with
this.
Matthew 2:15 quoted what prophet that said "Out of
Egypt I called my son"?
They say Moses........not it.
Hosea. SO after that round, The Ambassadors have 700,
Crusaders in the lead with 900 and the
Jewels.....still hanging in the minus. It's about time
for.....
THE
CHOSEN THREE
The Crusaders will kick it off
with this.....
For which three of these people did a chance meeting
at a well lead to marriage- Isaac, Moses, Jacob,
Abraham, Ishmael or Absalom?
Andrew gets Isaac and Jacob, but
Ishmael.....left them drowned. Moses was the one. The
Crown Jewels want to get in with this.....
In the vision found in Ezekiel 1, the creatures had
faces that looked like which three of these animals-
lion, dragon, donkey, ox, eagle or goat?
Victoria locks it in with lion,
ox and eagle.......CLEAN SWEEP! The Ambassadors want
to go on if this question happens.....
Which three of these men's good looks were
specifically mentioned in the Old Testament- Joseph,
Samson, Saul, David, Solomon or Aaron?
They get Saul, but Samson &
Solomon.....isn't it. It was Joseph & David. The
Ambassadors will run away with $2500. Now comes a $20K
footrace on this subject.....
CITIES IN THE BIBLE
So the Bible Study Showdown is
about to begin with the notable absence of David
Kristian and the Watch Dogs.
The Jewels will go first. They
get......2. Yes 2. Easy pickings for the Crusaders if
they get 3 to win
it.............................BINGO! The Crusaders
continue their quest with $20K in their pocket while
the Jewels lock $5000 in the charity safe.
More biblical insanity next
week. Pierre Kelly about to say....
