My goodness, is this what Bible-only fundamentalist Christianity has come to?? Quizzes and exams on who said what to whom when and where?

O be fair... this isn't an exam... it's a "led exploration." Although it is led with a very, very short chain. The person is directed exactly to the verses which make the author's point, and is then supposed to feel like he "found" the answers. It's a pedagogical tactic which feels more "open" then simply directly stating the "answers." It tends to be fairly effective with people who have:
1. Placed their trust in the bible, but
2. Have become wary of people who merely quote scrcipture,
3. Know very little of the bible, and
4. Have had very little education since their childhood, or have come to distrust the education they have received.

Well, it aint a test, but a Bible Study!

It makes you look up the answer so you learn what the Bible actually says on something.

Try it! Takes a while, but you will certainly learn something.
