Bible Quiz Day 1
It's time for a Bible quiz!
I have a list of 100 general Bible knowledge questions. I'll post one a day for 100 days! If you would like to play along, post your answer each day in the comments. Each day I will put the name of the first person that correctly answers that day's question into a hat. At the end of the 100 days I'll draw a name for a prize! The more times you answer correctly first, the more times your name will be entered and the better chance you have of winning. :-)
Question 1 - Who was the first man?
I will post the answer tomorrow when I post question 2.

Homespun Scarecrow Costume
Oh did I have more fun making this costume!
I started with my straw cowboy hat and covered the conchoes with some fabric scraps.
I wore a red flannel shirt and my husband's overalls with some more fabric scraps sewed on.
(Flannel and oversized overalls - talk about a comfy costume!)
I put my hair in pigtails.
And I stuffed raffia in all the pockets and taped raffia under the hat and around the cuffs.
A little face paint in red and brown was the finishing touch.
($1 per tube at Wal-mart - the only cost for this costume!)
I slipped on my cowboy boots and was ready to go!
I hope this gives you an idea for a fun and frugal costume! :-)

Question 30 - Is baptism optional?
Acts 2:36-41
"Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ. When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, 'Brothers, what shall we do?' Peter replied, 'Repent and be baptized, everyone of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Sprit...' Those who accepted his message were baptized."
Mark 16:16
"Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved."

Question 29 - According to the Bible, God's holy word, how am I to be saved?
Romans 10:17
You must hear.
"Faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ."

You must believe.
"I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins."

You must repent.
"In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead."
Romans 10:9-10
You must confess.
"That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved...for, 'Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved'."
Acts 22:16
You must be baptized.
"And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name."

~hearth bench~
When we bought this house in May,
we were really pleased that there was a fireplace in the living area.
But, the fireplace didn't have a hearth. :-(
Enter, my Dad, who has taken up wood working since his retirement.
He asked us to describe a bench that we could put in front of the fireplace and use as a hearth.
So we told him what we would like to have.
And that is exactly what he built!
Isn't it beautiful??
We just love it!
Thanks Dad!

II Peter 2:20-21
"If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.
