Sample questions from this week's game

You're an Israelite and God has told you to put lamb's blood on your doorframe tonight. Your neighbor says, 'That seems weird — I'm just going to skip it.' What do you do?

Exodus 12:28

Show answer

Follow God's instructions exactly as given, even if they seem unusual — Exodus 12:28 tells us the children of Israel 'did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron.' Their exact obedience saved their firstborn. Sometimes God's instructions may seem unusual, but He always has a reason.

A powerful ruler refused again and again to listen. Ten times, devastation struck his land — the water turned foul, creatures swarmed, disease spread, the sky went dark for days. But he wouldn't budge. Finally, one terrible night, a silent, invisible force swept through every home that wasn't marked with a special sign. By morning, the ruler was begging the people to leave.

Exodus 7-12

Show answer

The ten plagues and the Exodus from Egypt — Through ten devastating plagues, God demonstrated His supreme power over all the gods of Egypt and finally delivered Israel from bondage. Pharaoh's hard heart ultimately led to his own nation's suffering, while obedient Israel was protected.
