The correct answers for your scholastically challenged quiz are:

1. Which one?  The third heaven or the sky?  No and Yes respectively.
2. 1,100,000 total, 800,000 were "valiant" men 
(probably within prime fighting age from 20 to 40)
3. Saul, the Amelakite lied and the Philistines severely wounded him and set in motion 
his suicide, but Saul took his life (you provided no references to that one)
4. Many are, yes, Paul was not, but others were as each member of the body has a different 
function; all are obviously not missionaries, but others fulfill this part of the great commission.
5. Which do you mean, the planet earth or the surface of the earth and its inhabitants?  
The former, no; the latter, yes.
6. When do you mean?  At the time when Jesus was on earth, no (for He came to Israel first), 
then after their rejection of the Gospel it was preached to the Gentiles.
7. No. Because the Law was fulfilled in Christ.
8. 4,000 Didn't you read your NIV reference?  Some copy errors within certain of the 
numerous Bible manuscripts don't constitute an error on the Author's part.
9. Depends on which script you read, some of them coincide; but if you insist on the KJV, 
an easy answer is it held 2,000 baths normally and 3,000 at its fullest.
10. 7,000  Are you illiterate whenever reading anything called 'NIV,' see point on question 8.
11. 22, see point on question 10
12. For whom?  She had 5 by another husband, and none by David 
(and hence she bore no children--for the king)
13. What do you mean?  He came TO the city on the seventh day, 
he went INTO the city on the tenth (by the way, you misspelled guard).
14. Depends on which manuscript you read, see point for question 8; also, different overseers 
may have been set to different types of work
15. 18, can't you read?  See point for question 10.
16. Which kind?  Worldly wisdom or Godly wisdom?  
Sorrow and Happiness respectively (see James 3:15)
17. How do you mean, to test or to entice to sin?  Yes and No respectively.
18. Both, for they are the same people.
19. Jacob, Heli was his father--in law.  This family history is through both the lines of 
mother and father, but did not include women.
20. What do you mean (bridge-keeper), literally or figuratively?  No and yes respectively.
21. He threw it back to the priests and in a sense bought a field with it because he 
paid for it (big time).
22. Try to follow along: 1. He hung himself.  2. The rope broke.  3. He fell down a 
ravine and burst open in the middle of a field.
23. 2, the mention of only 1 does not negate the existence of 2.
24. Both.  The friends of the centurion came first and greeted Jesus, then the 
centurion himself met Him
25. 2, only one is named; see point for question 23
26. About an 8 days (one week), technically 6 days
27. 1 staff and 1 pair of sandals, no extras; read it again (you put this one twice).

  I thought you said this would be hard, I didn't even have to study for 24 of the 27 
(or was it 28 --hey! That's a contradiction!) questions.  Oh well, I guess that's what 
happens when you are irrationally determined to hate something without even trying 
to understand it.  Quit running from the truth and playing word games.  
Believe in Jesus Christ.

--You may put everything but this sentence up, but it must be in its entirety 
with the exception of this sentence.--
