Faith Bible Institute Semester 3 New Testament Practice Test 2026 – Comprehensive Exam Preparation

The main idea tested is the unity of Jewish and Gentile believers in Christ. In the epistle to the Ephesians, Paul emphasizes that Gentiles are fellow heirs and members of the same body through the gospel, highlighting the shared inheritance and the one-body reality of the church. This is stated explicitly in Ephesians 3:6, where Gentiles are described as fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus. Earlier, Ephesians 2:11–22 shows how Christ breaks down the dividing wall between Jews and Gentiles, reconciling both to God and making them one new humanity in the church. While other letters address related themes, this exact formulation and emphasis on Gentile inclusion into the body of Christ are most clearly and prominently found in the Epistle to the Ephesians.
