Got this in my mail..from Bible Society. :P

Bible Quiz: "What is My Name?" Quiz
At the end of the last century, a certain man boasted of knowing the Bible very well. A lady then set him a quiz and offered to give him a prize of over £250,000 if he could answer the question.

Adam, God made, but of dust.
But thought it best to make me first.
So I was made before man,
To answer God's most holy plan.
A living thing I became,
And Adam gave to me my name.
I from his presence then withdrew,
And more of Adam never knew.
I did my Maker's law obey,
Nor even went from it astray.
Thousands of miles I go in fear,
But seldom on the earth appear.
For purpose wise which God did see,
He put a living soul within me.
A soul from me God did claim,
And took from me the soul again.
So when from me the soul had fled,
I was the same as when first made.
And without hands or feet or soul,
I travel on from pole to pole.
I labour by day, by night,
To fallen man I give great light.
Thousands of people, young and old,
Will by my death great light behold.
No right or wrong can I conceive,
The Scripture I cannot believe.
Although my name therein is found,
They are to me an empty sound.
No fear of death doth trouble me,
Real happiness I'll never see.
To Heaven I shall never go,
Or to Hell below.
Now when these lines you slowly read,
Go search a Bible with all speed.
For that my name is written there,
I do honestly to you declare.

Clue: The answer is found four times in the King James Version of the Bible.
(Scroll for answer)























The answer is one word. There are five letters in the word.
Whale

And appears only four times in the King James Version Bible.
Genesis 1:21
Ezekiel 32:2
Job 7:12
Matthew 12:40

Adam, God made out of dust, but thought it was best to make me first. So I was made before man to answer God's most holy plan. A living being I became and Adam gave me my name. From his presence I then withdrew and more of Adam I never knew. I did my maker's law obey, not ever went from it astray. Thousands of miles I go in fear, but seldom on the earth appear.
Whales are in the ocean

For purpose wise which God did see, he put a living soul in me.
Jonah

A soul from me God did claim and took from me the soul again. So when from me the soul had fled, I was the same as when first made.
Jonah was freed from the whale

And without hands or feet or soul, I travel on from pole to pole.
Whales are long-distance travelers

I labor hours by day, by night to follow man to give him light. Thousands of people, young and old, will by my death great light behold.
Whale oil burns very nicely in many lamps. But the whale must be killed to get the oil.

Heya all, thanks for the concern (abt me and mom). Sorry, if you sms/msn me and I didn't reply. I've been quite shaken by the quarrel and have been thinking of nothing less than running away from home - which obviously I won't do. Just really upset. We didn't speak to each other for 2 days until not long ago, when she asked me if I wanted to eat chicken rice.

Thank God.

A part of me says I should have been the one to apologise for shouting first but well, nothing comes easy - so we all know. Anyhow, she gave me a big pack of Yupi Gummies because they contain beef gelatine and apparently, I'm the only one in the house who is allowed to eat them. (Buddhists don't eat beef.)

Another slow-moving, but heavy week with 2 briefs due... along with the burden of a quarrelsome class and the preparation for our grad show. The quarrelsome level rose on Tuesday when one guy stomped off because he didn't agree with the idea of painting the walls of the exhibition venue. Yes, it is childish indeed... but there were nasty comments going around and frustrated in-between-ers like myself.

Anyway, just thought I'd ask that you guys continue to pray for Daniel. For the details, I'll leave them to Zong Ren to fill you in.

Bye Pee! Check the internet if you have access to internet there!

Hey guys... I quarelled with my mom today. I think I might have overreacted but I was really fed up. She kept asking me to burn copies of her chanting CDs/VCDs for her but I told her I'm not free. She asked my brother but his computer is down and so she came back to nag at me to help her, but the fact was I didn't want to make any copies of it at all so I told her, I won't do it. She got incredibly angry and stomped off saying that she's not going to bother about anything I do or if I need anything anymore, saying that I refuse to do such a small thing for her. She continued yelling and I got upset, I yelled back, "I'd do anything but burn that for you. I'm not doing it because I don't want you to listen to it."

I don't know what I can do to undo it but my brother came out to ask for the CDs, and he'll try to burn them. I'm really just so horrified by the constant chanting and Buddhist sermons.
