White Horse Inn Basic Doctrine Quiz


I took this quiz a few years ago while listening to the radio program "The White Horse Inn." I really enjoyed it; I hope y'all do too. All the questions are True/False

Disclaimer: How one does on this quiz does not determine your standing with God. Jesus' life, death, and resurrection takes care of that. However, if you find that you don't do so well, it may just be a good reminder that God has given you a gift called the Bible.
