Bible Quiz – Psalm 14 (MCQ) 

Welcome, Bible students and Scripture lovers!

This quiz is not a memory drill—it is a textual, theological, and contextual challenge designed to test how carefully you read the Bible.

Psalm 14 and Romans 3 are among the most frequently confused passages in Scripture. Here, we take you step by step—from standard understanding to elite scholarly precision—through multiple quiz rounds that progressively increase in difficulty.

 

Many questions are intentionally tricky. Some options sound biblical but are not biblical. Others are biblical—but from the wrong book. Read slowly. Think deeply. Answer carefully.

🔹 Section 1: Standard MCQ Round

Purpose: Build a solid foundation

Based strictly on Psalm 14 (KJV)

One correct answer per question

Focuses on who said what, where, and why

📌 Tip: Ideal for warming up and refreshing the passage.

 

🔹 Section 2: Advanced / Tricky Round

Purpose: Test close reading

Questions rely on phrasing, sequence, and emphasis

Incorrect options are often partially true

Requires attention to exact wording

📌 Tip: Don’t answer from memory—answer from the text.

 

🔹 Section 3: EXTREME “Trick the Scholar” Round

Purpose: Break assumptions

Designed to trap surface-level familiarity

Tests speaker shifts, grammar, tone, and theology

Rewards slow, analytical reading

📌 Warning: Many confident readers fail here.

 

🔹 Section 4: “Misquote Trap” Round

Purpose: Expose false familiarity

Real verses mixed with near-perfect false verses

Your task: identify the exact KJV wording

Commonly misquoted phrases are deliberately used

📌 Rule: If even one word is wrong—it’s wrong.

 

🔹 Section 5: Romans 3 vs Psalm 14 – Confusion Round

Purpose: Separate poetry from doctrine

Identify whether a statement appears in:

Psalm 14 only

Romans 3 only

Both

Neither

Highlights how Paul adapts Psalm language

📌 Key Insight: Similar wording ≠ same meaning.

 

🔹 Section 6: “Same Words – Different Meaning” Trap

Purpose: Test theological maturity

Same or similar words used in different contexts

Requires understanding of:

Poetic observation (Psalm)

Legal/doctrinal argument (Romans)

 

📌 Think: How is the word being used—not just where.
