Lord's Prayer 7th Petition

When we pray 'but deliver us from evil,' we ask God to rescue us from

• suffering.
• sin.
• a life of luxury.

Evil comes

• at random.
• because nobody cares.
• because the world is sinful.

True or false: God never lets evil come into our lives.

• True.
• False.

We will be completely free from evil when we

• retire.
• live good enough lives.
• reach heaven.

All the troubles and sorrows in this world are

• the result of sin.
• the final result of the death of Jesus.
• over when we become Christians.

Trouble and suffering

• often accompany Christians in this life more than unbelievers.
• can be avoided if we are faithful to Jesus on this earth.
• are always greatest on this earth for those who don't love God.

Our comfort in time of trouble should be that

• we are only getting what we deserve.
• many others have to suffer along with us.
• after we go to heaven, all earthly sorrows will be over.

Evil is

• missing the mark of God's perfection.
• any bad thing that is part of our lives on earth as a result of Adam's sin.
• any situation in which someone may be led into sin, false belief, or despair.

Our prayers are acceptable to God because

• we try to live good lives.
• everyone is a child of God by birth.
• we pray as Jesus taught and commanded.

We know God hears our prayers because

• he promises to hear us through the name of his Son.
• he has more power than we can ever imagine.
• Both of the above.
