Assessment of Religious Knowledge (ARK) Test 9th Grade Practice

Holiness is living in close friendship with God, growing in His grace, and becoming more like Him in love and truth. It’s not just about following rules; it’s a relationship that deepens through prayer, virtue, and service, guiding everyday choices to reflect God’s will. Advent is a season of waiting and preparation in the Church calendar, not a state of life with God. A vocation is the calling to a particular way of life or mission, not the relationship itself. Mediation refers to acting as a go-between for God and people, rather than the personal closeness with God described by holiness.
