Answer Key: 

1. - D - Jesus’ first miracle was turning water into wine at a wedding. 

In John 2:1-12, when the wine supply ran out during a wedding celebration, Jesus turned water into wine. When the Master of Ceremony tasted the wine, he said, “A host always serves the best wine first. Then, when everyone has had a lot to drink, he brings out the less expensive wine. But you have kept the best until now!”

2. - B - Jesus cast out an evil spirit by telling it, “Be quiet! Come out of the man.”

In Mark 1:21-28 and Luke 4:31-37, Jesus was teaching on the Sabbath in a synagogue in the town of Capernaum when a man who was possessed by an evil spirit cried out, “Why are you interfering with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!” After Jesus reprimanded him to be quiet and come out of the man, the evil spirit screamed, threw the man into a convulsion, and came out of him. 

3. - D - Jesus’ stern warning to the man with leprosy was, “Don’t tell anyone. Instead, go to the priest and let him examine you. Take along the offering required in the law of Moses for those who have been healed of leprosy. This will be a public testimony that you have been cleansed.” 

In Matthew 8:1-4, Mark 1:40-45, and Luke 5:12-16, a man with leprosy begged Jesus to heal him—due to his great faith, Jesus healed him. Jesus was moved with compassion for this man who would have likely been rejected and ostracized by everyone due to his contagious disease. 

4. - A - When four men lowered a paralyzed man directly in front of Him, Jesus forgave the man of his sins and told him to pick up his mat and go home. 

In Mark 2:1-12, Matthew 9:1-8, and Luke 5:17-26, due to a huge crowd around Jesus, the four men made a hole through the roof and lowered the man down in front of Jesus. He told the paralyzed man, “My child, your sins are forgiven,” which offended the religious leaders there, who would have considered this statement blasphemous since only God can forgive sins! This is one of the first times Jesus shows His power to physically and Spiritually heal. 

5. - C - When Jesus and His disciples were sailing across a lake, and a fierce storm appeared, Jesus rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” and then asked the disciples, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?”

In Luke 8:22-25, Matthew 8:23-27, and Mark 4:35-41, while Jesus and His disciples were sailing, a storm came out of nowhere with fierce winds and waves that put them in danger. Meanwhile, Jesus was sleeping in the back when the disciples screamed for Him to save them; Jesus then calmed the storm with His voice and asked the disciples why they were so fearful and lacked faith. 

6. - A - On the way to Jairus’ home, Jesus healed a woman who had been suffering for 12 years with constant bleeding and called her “Daughter.”

In Matthew 9:18-22, Mark 5:22-34, and Luke 8:40-48, while Jesus was on His way to do another miracle, the woman touched His robe, knowing this would be enough to heal her. Immediately after touching Jesus’ robe, she was healed, and Jesus, seeing what she had done said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Your suffering is over.” 

7. - B - When a crowd of 5,000 people was hungry, Jesus took a basket filled with five loaves of bread and two fish and multiplied it to feed the entire crowd as much as they wanted. He even filled 12 baskets full of leftovers. 

In Matthew 14:13-21, Mark 6:30-44, Luke 9:10-17, and John 6:1-15, Jesus is faced with another huge crowd when He saw a young boy in the crowd with five barley loaves and two fish. Jesus used this to feed the 5,000 men and their families and even had leftovers—scholars believe that the actual number would have been closer to 15,000-20,000 people. 

8. - D - When the disciples were sailing through a severe storm without Him, Jesus walked on water toward them and told them to not be afraid before calming the storm.

In Matthew 14:22-33, Mark 6:45-52, and John 6:16-21, while the disciples were crossing the Sea of Galilee and Jesus was on land, another nasty storm appeared that put them in danger. Soon, Jesus walked toward them on water, which prompted Peter to also walk on water toward Jesus. It was only when he took his eyes off Jesus that he became terrified and began to sink before Jesus immediately reached out and saved him. 

 9. - C - When Jesus’ friend died and was in a tomb for four days, Jesus arrived, and He wept. He then asked some people to roll the stone of the tomb away. Jesus shouted, “Lazarus, come out!” and Lazarus did.

In John 11:1-45, Mary and Martha’s brother, Lazarus, passed away from being very sick, which grieved Jesus, who planned to bring Lazarus back from the dead in order to bring God glory. First, Jesus wept for His friend, showing His love and sympathy for God’s creation.

10. - B - Jesus used fish to demonstrate His power when He instructed Simon Peter to “Go out where it is deeper, and let down your nets to catch some fish.” This was after Simon and some nearby fishermen had been fishing all night without a single catch. However, when they obeyed Jesus, their boats became so full of fish that they were on the verge of sinking. 

In Luke 5:1-11 and Mark 1:16-20, after preaching to a great crowd on the Sea of Galilee, Jesus gave fishing advice to some seasoned fishermen (Simon Peter, James, and John)—who had failed to catch any fish the night before. Because they obeyed Jesus’ instruction, they caught countless fish before leaving everything to follow Jesus—they were the first disciples.
