My journey this week takes me to the Bible and an examination of scripture knowledge. Take this quiz on Bible knowledge. Do not look at the answers until you have written a yes or no beside each quote. For example, one person remarked, “You know that the Bible says, ‘A fool and his money are soon parted.'" The Bible has a lot to say about fools and about money, but this saying is not found in the Bible. In this list are the top five Bible verses that are evangelical favorites and frequently shared on the internet.

1. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.
