Explanation / Answer

True.Transcendence refers to God's nature and power as entirely independent of (and removed from) the material universe while in contrast is immanence where God is fully present in the physical world and thus accessible to physical beings in various ways.God beyond belief is both immanent and transcendent. Q2. True. Like any academic discipline, doing theology means imparting knowledge and a variety of skills to those who would interact with its major sources, figures, and themes. And yet what is most distinctive about the discipline of theology is that, in the midst of this often heady enterprise of “faith seeking understanding,” one can never finally comprehend the reality from which theology gets its name. Q3.True,The Catholic faith is based on divine revelation. In its Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation (Dei Verbum, November 18, 1965) the Second Vatican Council spelled out in some detail what the Church believes and teaches with regard to divine revelation, primarily as it is contained in the Bible. Q4.True.Mosaic authorship is the Jewish and Christian tradition that Moses was the author of the Torah, the first five books of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. Q5.True. A true prophet would speak God's message fearlessly. Q6.False.The Book of Psalms, commonly referred to simply as Psalms or "the Psalms", is the first book of the Ketuvim ("Writings"), the third section of the Hebrew Bible, and a book of the Christian Old Testament. Q7.True.The documentary hypothesis, along with the JEDP theory, denies that Moses wrote the Pentateuch and instead ascribes its authorship to four (or more) different authors/redactors spread out over several hundreds of years. Q8.False. Q9.True.Theology is defined as a continual process of inquiry and discovery. Because the reality of God is inexhaustable, theology is never "done". Q10.True. prayer is a solemn request to God or object of worship. It is not only spiritual but a source for our mind and soul. Q11.True.The Catholic Church and Eastern Christian churches also hold that certain deuterocanonical books and passages are part of the Old Testament canon. The second part is the New Testament, containing 27 books; the four Canonical gospels, Acts of the Apostles, 21 Epistles or letters and the Book of Revelation. Q12.True,When applied to sacred writings, inerrancy is the belief that the words are God's true revelations to mankind. An inerrant text is considered infallible, truthful, reliable, totally free of error and absolutely authoritative. Inerrancy is not restricted to moral and religious truth. It is normally applied to all statements of fact in the Bible: "scientific, historical, or geographical. Q13. The Torah;Tanakh is an acronym of the first Hebrew letter of each of the Masoretic Text's three traditional subdivisions: Torah ("Teaching", also known as the Five Books of Moses), Nevi'im ("Prophets") and Ketuvim ("Writings")—hence TaNaKh. Q14.Genesis;The Book of Genesis is the first book of the Hebrew Bible (the Tanakh) and the Christian Old Testament. It can be divided into two parts, the Primeval history and the Ancestral history. Q15.God enters human history and influences human activity;When people speak of the Bible as inspired, they are referring to the fact that God divinely influenced the human authors of the Scriptures in such a way that what they wrote was the very Word of God. In the context of the Scriptures, the word “inspiration” simply means “God-breathed.” Inspiration means the Bible truly is the Word of God and makes the Bible unique among all other books. Q16.All of the above are true. Q17.Between 70 and 120 AD Q18.None of the sections were written by jesus Q19.inerrancy Q20.Reflects the foundational beliefs of a religious tradition;The Apostles' Creed sometimes entitled Symbol of the Apostles, is an early statement of Christian belief—a creed or "symbol" Q21.The Quinque are five logical arguments regarding the existence of God summarized by the 13th-century Catholic philosopher and theologian St. Thomas Aquinas in his book Summa Theologica.
