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.

Quiz 7 on Canons Head Two

  1. True or false: God promises to save everyone who believes in Christ crucified.
  2. True or false: A preacher may say, “If you believe, you shall be saved.” 
  3. True or false: When the gospel is preached, no command to repent and believe should be included.
  4. True or false: God determines where the gospel shall be preached.
  5. True or false: The church should restrict the preaching of the gospel to certain kinds of people. 
  6. True or false: The gospel is the promiscuous proclamation of a particular promise.

  9. True or false: The new covenant which the Father established could have been by grace or by works.
  10. True or false: Reconciliation is the restoration of a fractured relationship by the removal of an offense. 
  11. True or false: By his death Jesus merited for us salvation and faith itself by which salvation is applied.
  12. True or false: By his death Jesus merited for us only salvation; we must produce faith of ourselves.
  13. True or false: According to Arminianism Christ by his death merited merely the right for the Father to prescribe new conditions of salvation—faith, obedience, and the like—but salvation still depends on freewill.
  14. True or false: The most important fruit or benefit obtained by Christ’s death is salvation for his elect people.
  15. True or false: Arminianism is simply another way of looking at Christ’s death and is not really a serious error.
  16. True or false: By faith, inasmuch as faith accepts the merits of Christ, we are justified before God and saved. 
  17. True or false: God, being merciful, has in the NT revoked the demand of perfect obedience to his law. 
  18. True or false: Faith with its imperfect obedience is worthy of the reward of eternal life. 
  19. True or false: All men are accepted into the state of reconciliation, but are not actually reconciled to God.
  20. True or false: No one is worthy of condemnation on account of original sin or will be condemned for it.
  21. True or false: There is a difference between Christ’s meriting of salvation by Jesus and its application.
  22. True or false: God is willing to apply to everyone the benefits gained by Christ on the cross.
  23. True or false: Christ died on the cross merely to move sinners to love Jesus who died for them. 
  24. True or false: Salvation depends on the special gift of mercy, which powerfully works it some so that they, rather than others, appropriate the grace of salvation, the pardon of sin, and eternal life. 
  25. True or false: The difference between one who appropriates Christ’s salvation, which he merited on the cross for all without exception, and one who does not appropriate it, is the proper exercise of freewill joined to grace.
