Answers
\n<\/span><\/span>
\n1 .Answer (B)<\/span> From the Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church question 106. The temptations of Jesus in the desert recapitulate the temptation of Adam in Paradise and the temptations of Israel in the desert. Satan tempts Jesus in regard to his obedience to the mission given him by the Father. Christ, the new Adam, resists and his victory proclaims that of his passion which is the supreme obedience of his filial love. The Church unites herself to this mystery in a very special way in the liturgical season of Lent.

\n9. Answer (B)<\/span> Maundy Thursday is also known as Chrism Mass or Holy Thursday
\n10. Answer (D)<\/span> On Good Friday we remember the day Jesus was crucified. In The Latin Rite there is no celebration of Mass between the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday evening and the Easter Vigil unless a special exemption is granted for rare solemn or grave occasions by the Vatican or the local bishop. The only sacraments celebrated during this time are Baptism (for those in danger of death), Penance, and Anointing of the Sick. While there is no celebration of the Eucharist, it is distributed to the faithful only in the Service of the Passion of the Lord, but can also be taken at any hour to the sick who are unable to attend this service.
\n11. Answer (C)<\/span> The devotion that has a special place during lent is the stations of the cross, where you meditate on the final hours (or Passion) of Jesus. The stations of the cross may be done at any time, but is most commonly done during the Season of Lent, especially on Good Friday and on Friday evenings during Lent.
\n12. Answer (C)<\/span> The consecration does not take place on Good Friday, that is there is no consecration on Good Friday, because Good Friday is more of a service than a mass. it is the liturgy of the word (with veneration of the cross) and a communion service, you receive the Eucharist which has been consecrated the day before it is not consecrated on Good Friday.
