CRS Theory Answers 2024
Question 1: The Crossing of the Red Sea
(1a)
Moses was chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt and into the land of Canaan, which God had promised to them. Pharaoh decided to pursue the Israelites with chariots, catching up with them at Pi-hahiroth. God commanded Moses to stretch his staff over the water, and a strong east wind divided the sea throughout the night. The Israelites crossed through the sea on dry ground with walls of water on either side. The Egyptians pursued them, but at dawn, God clogged their chariot wheels and threw them into confusion. When Moses stretched his hand again, the waters returned, and Pharaoh’s entire army was destroyed. Witnessing this, the Israelites placed their faith in God and in Moses, singing a song of praise to the Lord.
(1b)
(i) Christians should learn never to doubt God in any situation.
(ii) Christians should always obey God's commands and the guidance of His prophets.
Question 7: Stephen’s Defense (Acts 7:2-53)
(7a)
Stephen was charged with blasphemy against God and was accused of apostasy from the church. In his defense, Stephen showed that he was a descendant of Abraham and valued his heritage. He recounted the history of Israel, emphasizing how God was with Joseph during his trials, showing the power of Divine grace. Stephen reminded the Jews of their humble beginnings and the wickedness of the patriarchs in envying their brother Joseph. He highlighted that the patriarchs' faith, particularly in wanting to be buried in Canaan, indicated their regard for the heavenly kingdom. Stephen used these examples to call out the persistent opposition to God's messengers, similar to the rejection of Christ.
(7b)
Stephen’s defense serves as a reminder of the need to recognize and follow God's guidance rather than oppose His messengers. Christians should learn to appreciate the spiritual significance of God's promises and remain steadfast in their faith.
Question 4: Amos and Amaziah
(4a)
Amos denounced the high places of Israel and prophesied that God would rise against the house of Jeroboam II with the sword. Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, reported to King Jeroboam II that Amos had conspired against him, claiming that Jeroboam would die by the sword and Israel would go into exile. Amaziah instructed Amos to flee to Judah and prophesy there, but Amos replied that he was not a prophet by profession but had been called by God to deliver His message. Amos declared that because of Amaziah's opposition, his wife would become a harlot, his children would fall by the sword, and Israel would go into exile.
(4b)
(i) People oppose God because of their pride and refusal to submit to His authority.
(ii) Those who oppose God often do so out of ignorance or misunderstanding of His will.
(iii) The opponents of God are often driven by selfish desires and fears.
Question 5: Jesus Before the Sanhedrin
(5a)
When Jesus was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane, He was taken to the house of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the Sanhedrin gathered to try Him. Although the trial was illegal, the Sanhedrin sought false testimony against Jesus to justify putting Him to death but found none. Finally, false witnesses accused Jesus of claiming He could destroy the Jerusalem temple and rebuild it in three days. Jesus remained silent until the high priest asked Him if He was the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus affirmed the statement, leading the high priest to accuse Him of blasphemy, concluding that Jesus should be put to death.
(5b)
(i) People bear false witness against others out of jealousy.
(ii) False witnesses may be motivated by the desire for personal gain or favor.
Question 9: Peter's Instructions to Christians Living Among Non-Christians
(9a)
Peter urged Christians living among non-Christians to abstain from fleshly lusts that war against the soul. He encouraged them to engage in honest communication so that even if others speak against them, their good works would lead non-believers to glorify God. Peter instructed them to submit to every human institution, including the emperor and governors, as a testimony of their faith. He advised them to live as free men, not using their freedom as an excuse for evil, but as servants of God. Peter reminded them to honor all people, love the brotherhood, fear God, and honor the emperor. He also encouraged them to endure suffering for doing good, following the example of Christ.
(9b)
(i) Disobedience to God’s commandments
(ii) Sinful behavior

CRS Essay Answer for Question 1: The Crossing of the Red Sea
When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though it was shorter. God led the people around by the desert road toward the Red Sea. Moses took the bones of Joseph with him because Joseph had made the Israelites swear an oath to bring his bones up from Egypt.
After leaving Sukkoth, they camped at Etham on the edge of the desert. By day, the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud, and by night, in a pillar of fire, providing guidance and light. The Lord instructed Moses to tell the Israelites to turn back and encamp near Pi Hahiroth. Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he pursued the Israelites with his army.
As the Israelites saw the Egyptians approaching, they were terrified, but Moses told them not to be afraid and to stand firm. The Lord then instructed Moses to raise his staff and stretch out his hand over the sea. The sea parted, and the Israelites crossed on dry ground. The Egyptians followed, but the Lord threw them into confusion and jammed their chariot wheels. When Moses stretched out his hand again, the waters returned, drowning the entire Egyptian army.
