  1. Is this in the Bible? “Money is the root of all evil.”

    Answer

    No. A misquote of 1 Timothy 6:10. 1 Timothy 6:10 says the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. The short version drops “the love of,” and the point goes with it.

  2. Is the word “dance” in the Bible?

    Answer

    Yes. It is in the Bible 8 times. First in Judges 21:21: “and watch. When the young women of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, come out of the vineyards, and each of you seize a wife from the…”

  3. Is the word “calendar” in the Bible?

    Answer

    No. Not once in the Lumin Translation or the King James Bible.

  4. Is the word “Purgatory” in the Bible?

    Answer

    No. Purgatory is not in the Bible. Catholic teaching draws the idea from passages such as 1 Corinthians 3:15 and 2 Maccabees 12. Protestant churches do not hold it.

  5. Is this in the Bible? “Here am I, send me.”

    Answer

    Yes. Isaiah 6:8. In the Lumin Translation: “Then I heard the Lord’s voice asking, “Whom am I to send, and who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am; send me.””

How the quiz works

Each day has three words and two sayings, picked from 120 words and 82 sayings people often ask about. Every answer comes from the same count as Lumin’s Bible word checker, in the Lumin Translation and the King James Version. The quiz and the checker never disagree.

Want one verse a day instead? Today’s verse comes with one question to carry.

Where do the answers come from?
From the same index as Lumin’s free word and verse checker: the Lumin Translation and the King James Version. A word only counts as “in the Bible” if it is in both. Words that are only in one of them, like unicorn, are left out of the quiz, because yes and no would both be half right.
When does a new quiz come out?
Every day at midnight, on your own clock. Everyone gets the same five questions on the same date, so you can compare scores with friends.
Do I need an account?
No. Your scores and your streak are kept on this device only. Nothing about your answers is sent anywhere.
Can I check any word myself?
Yes. The free Bible word checker counts any word, sentence, or song lyric in the Lumin Translation and the King James Version, and shows where each word appears.
