Christmas Trivia Answer Key with Bible verses
Mary, a righteous woman from Nazareth [Luke 1:26], will soon be wed to a good man named Joseph [Luke 1:27]. Mary, who is a virgin [Luke 1:27], is visited by the angel Gabriel [Luke 1:28], who says, “Do not be afraid, for you have found favor with God [Luke 1:30].”
The angel told Mary, “You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus [Luke 1:31]. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David [Luke 1:32], and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end [Luke 1:33].”
Joseph was a faithful man and did not want to expose Mary to public disgrace; he had in mind to leave (or divorce) [Matthew 1:19] her quietly. But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream [Matthew 1:20] and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife because what is conceived in her is from the holy spirit [Matthew 1:20]. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus because He will save people from their sins [Matthew 1:21].”
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel [Matthew 1:23](which means “God with us”).”
Mary and Joseph travel to Bethlehem [Luke 2:6], where she gives birth to Jesus [Luke 2:7], swaddles him in clothes, and lays him down in the manger [Luke 2:7]. Nearby, in the fields, several Shepheards [Luke 2:8] are keeping watch over their flock when they are visited by an angel [Luke 2:9] who says to them, “Do not be afraid. Today, in the town of David, a Savior has been born to you, He is Christ the Lord (or the Messiah) [Luke 2:11] .”
The baby is soon visited by three wise men [Matthew 2:1], who are guided by a star [Matthew 2:2] to the location, bringing gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh [Matthew 2:11], each representing a piece of the new world coming to worship this new King.
Today, this holy birth is celebrated as Christmas. It is a time when we keep love and kindness in our hearts and thank our Savior, who died for our sins – blessing all of us – God’s children.
oops…on spelling….Shepherds
I loved this .Challenged me to search for answers that I wasn’t sure of. Thank you Amac for believing in GOD !!
Shepherds never kept their flock in the fields by night in December is to cold and the rainy season. This happened in early fall around the time of the Feast of Tabernacles, also when all the residents went to Judaea to pay their taxes. That was the reason their was no room for them at the inn. The wise men never showed up the night he was born it was several years later read Matthew 2:11 it says they came into the house and they saw the young child. That is why Herod wanted all males 2 years old and under to be killed.
I love this Christmas trivia. I am going to use it in my Sunday school class and have the children fill in the blanks. If they don’t know the answer, I will have them look it up in their Bible! Thank you so much this was a brilliant idea.
Loved this trivia. Will be a good game to play Christmas Eve. Our family plays games on Christmas Eve before opening gifts.
Matthew 2:1 only says “wise men.” It does not say there were three of them. I suppose this common mistake is because three different gifts are mentioned.
This is really cool! I sent the quiz to my granddaughter
Thank you for this fun & useful tool. It will be sent to my 15 grandchildren with their presents.
Thank you for this neat trivia fill-in….I am using it for my prayer group on Tuesday mornings. They will love it! Merry Christas to you all!
That was fun and educational, I couldn’t remember the gifts.
May I ask why you did not capitalize the “H” and “S” for the Holy Spirit. Otherwise, I thought it was great, although it did surprised me you used the New International Version since I thought you were Catholic.
Thank you for this! Gave it to our youth teacher at church. Hope the young people know all the answers.
I agree with Samuel Miller,It never said anywhere in the Bible /Three Wise men/Lets us not think cause there was three gifts.Could of been 12 or 5 or 10,only they are Wise men.
What a lovely Christmas Day activity!!
thank you
I loved this. Just one flaw I didn’t,and to point out to my family. The three gift represents His Royalty, Divinity, and His death. nothing to do with “a new world”
I plan on using this trivia exercise with the family after our Christmas eve dinner prior to opening presents,Thanks for the opportunity to again bring the sacred into our lives.-
