Quiz Your Knowledge of the Canons of Dordt (13)

Quiz Your Knowledge of the Canons of Dordt (13)

The RFPA blog editor, Rev. Martyn McGeown, enjoys teaching the creeds in his capacity as pastor of Providence PRC. To that end, he has written a series of quizzes for our blog readers, to test readers' knowledge of the Canons of Dordt. Try them out, test yourselves and your friends and family, and may the questions spur you on to familiarize yourselves with the confessions.

Today, we begin with the final section of the Canons, Head Five.

[To start from the beginning with our Canons quiz series, click here to see the 1st quiz on Head One, here for the 1st quiz on Head Two, and here for the 1st quiz on Heads Three/Four.]
