1. False is Correct: Question was: Joseph was the
one who conceived Mary ?
Matthew 1:20 But while he thought on these things,
behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying,
Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for
that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
(Note) The Holy Spirit was the only one to have brought
forth the Lord into this sinful world, because his family was Holy and
Pure without Blemish and Spot. In other words, what he calls sins, is
to stop doing the things he hates.
He doesn't do it, and he expects you to do the same. This means for you
to be blameless and spotless.
2. True is Correct: Question was: Jesus was born
in Bethlehem ?
Matthew 2:1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of
Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men
from the east to Jerusalem,
(Note) The name Bethlehem in the Hebrew name means
'' House of bread''. Our Lord's body has become the
'' The bread of life'', that represents his body.
3. False is Correct: Question was: The wise men
were three kings from the orient ?
The number of wise men (Magi) is not mentioned. They were not
kings. Also the word orient is not in the Bible. The orient is a
term which simply means the east. it originated in Western
Asia.
Text mentioned in Daniel 2:12 included three classes,
(1) astrologers,
(2) Chaldeans,
(3) soothsayers. The word in the original (hakamim) probably
means "medicine men. In Chaldea medicine was only a branch of
magic.
(Note) The "wise men" of Matthew 2:7, who came
from the East to Jerusalem, were magi from Persia or Arabia.

king had heard a new king was born, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem
with him ?
Matthew 2:3 When Herod the king had heard these things,
he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Matthew 2:4 And when he had gathered all the chief
priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where
Christ should be born.
(Note) This was a heathen king and he knew it was
written, a new king would be born of woman to rule over Jerusalem. He
turned to the wise men to trick them in finding the king child so he
couldn't take over the thrown.
5. True is Correct: Question was: it is written
by the prophet in the old testament where the Christ child will be born
?
Matthew 2:5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of
Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
Matthew 2:6 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda,
art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall
come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
(Note) This is written in Micah Chapter 5, where
the child would be born in Bethlehem and rule over Israel.
Micah 5:2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou
be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he
come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth
have been from of old, from everlasting.
Micah 5:3 Therefore will he give them up, until the
time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant
of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.

worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented
unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.
Matthew 2:12 And being warned of God in a dream that
they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country
another way.

Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men
from the east to Jerusalem,
Matthew 2:12 And being warned of God in a dream
that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own
country another way.
Matthew 2:13 And when they were departed, behold,
the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise,
and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be
thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young
child to destroy him.
Matthew 2:14 When he arose, he took the young
child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
Matthew 2:19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an
angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
Matthew 2:20 Saying, Arise, and take the young
child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are
dead which sought the young child's life.
Matthew 2:21 And he arose, and took the young
child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

Mary and the child traveled from one place to another.

of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the
children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two
years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently
enquired of the wise men.
Matthew 2:17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken
by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
9. True is Correct: Question was: Joseph and
Mary went to Bethlehem because of a decree by Caesar Augustus ?
Luke 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that
there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world
should be taxed.

Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
Luke 2:3 And all went to be taxed, every one into
his own city.
Luke 2:4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out
of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which
is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of
David:)
Luke 2:5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife,
being great with child.
10. False is Correct: Question was: The wise men
found Jesus lying in a manger in the town of Bethlehem ?
Matthew 2:11 And when they were come into the house,
they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and
worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented
unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.
