GETTING READY: Finish the Verse Question List


Finish the Verse questions are often the most familiar to new quizzers, as they are essentially Memory Verses.  A static list is given out at the beginning of each year of all the Finish the Verse (or FTV) questions that will be asked, so the possible universe is well known.  The only complicating factor is unlike other questions, FTVs must be answered word-perfectwith reference.  For example, for the verse...

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit.
(Matthew 1:18)

...the format of the question and answer would be...
Question:  "Finish the Verse Question - This is how the birth..." 
Answer:  "...came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit.  Matthew 1:18"
...and missing even one word would mean the quizzer got it wrong.  The full list of questions is now online!  Check it out and consider whether Finish the Verse questions might be for you.
