85.A large stone was placed at the entrance of the tomb. Where was the stone when the women arrived?

tomb" (Luke 24:2) They saw that "the stone had been taken away from the tomb" (John 20:1)
(b) As the women approached, an angel descended from heaven, rolled away the stone, and conversed
with the women. Matthew made the women witness the spectacular rolling away of the stone (Matthew
28:1-6)
86.Did anyone tell the women what happened to Jesus' body?
(a) Yes. "A young man in a white robe" (Mark 16:5). "Two men ... in dazzling apparel" later described as
angels (Luke 24:4 and 24:23). An angel - the one who rolled back the stone (Matthew 16:2). In each
case the women were told that Jesus had risen from the dead (Matthew 28:7; Mark 16:6; Luke 24:5
footnote)
(b) No. Mary met no one and returned saying, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not
know where they have laid him" (John 20:2)
87.When did Mary Magdelene first meet the resurrected Jesus? And how did she react?

They took hold of his feet and worshipped him (Matthew 28:9)

not recognize him. She mistook him for the gardener. She still thinks that Jesus' body is laid to rest
somewhere and she demands to know where. But when Jesus said her name she at once recognized him
and called him "Teacher." Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me..." (John 20:11 to 17)
88.What was Jesus' instruction for his disciples?
(a) "Tell my brethren to go to Galilee, and there they will see me" (Matthew 2 8: 10)

(c) Yes. "And the Lord repented that he had made Saul King over Israel" (I Samuel 15:35). Notice that
the above three quotes are all from the same chapter of the same book! In addition, the Bible shows that
God repented on several other occasions:
i. "The Lord was sorry that he made man" (Genesis 6:6)
"I am sorry that I have made them" (Genesis 6:7)
ii. "And the Lord repented of the evil which he thought to do to his people" (Exodus 32:14).

93.The Bible says that for each miracle Moses and Aaron demonstrated the magicians did the same by
their secret arts. Then comes the following feat:
(a) Moses and Aaron converted all the available water into blood (Exodus 7:20-21)

left to convert into blood.

Ecclesiastes 7:20; and I John 1:810)
(b) No. True Christians cannot possibly sin, because they are the children of God. "Every one who
believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God. (I John 5:1). "We should be called children of God; and
so we are" (I John 3: 1). "He who loves is born of God" (I John 4:7). "No one born of God commits sin;
for God's nature abides in him, and he cannot sin because he is born of God" (I John 3:9). But, then
again, Yes! "If we say we have no sin we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us" (I John 1:8)
97.Who will bear whose burden?
(a) "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ" (Galatians 6:2)

99.Where was Jesus three days after his baptism?
(a) After his baptism, "the spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. And he was in the
wilderness forty days ... (Mark 1:12-13)

more disciples. Third day: Jesus was at a wedding feast in Cana in Galilee (see John 1:35; 1:43; 2:1-11)
100.Was baby Jesus' life threatened in Jerusalem?
(a) Yes, so Joseph fled with him to Egypt and stayed there until Herod died (Matthew 2:13 23)
(b) No. The family fled nowhere. They calmly presented the child at the Jerusalem temple according to
the Jewish customs and returned to Galilee (Luke 2:21-40)
101.When Jesus walked on water how did the disciples respond?
(a) They worshipped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God" (Matthew 14:33)

Very seriously, you might attend catechism or perhaps attend adult Christian sunday schools.
There you might find the answers you are looking for.

Personally, I am not any longer seeking answers in the Old Testament.
The New Testament offers interesting concepts given by Jesus.
My answers for myself come from guidence within and others who might be similarly-minded.

Good luck on your venture.
