What's your theological worldview?

[Guest yod]

some of the questions weren't as specific as they could have been...and I could think of other questions to have asked but I suppose it was at least "interesting". There were 2 questions about specific people that I have never heard of so they must be unimportant to me, eh?

I have no idea what Wesley taught...and I think a majority of Methodist churches are mostly shells of religion these days. I've only stepped foot into 2 or 3 of them in my life so I don't know why this poll catagorizes me with being Methodist.

You scored as Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan.

You are an evangelical in the Wesleyan tradition. You believe that God's grace enables you to choose to believe in him, even though you yourself are totally depraved. The gift of the Holy Spirit gives you assurance of your salvation, and he also enables you to live the life of obedience to which God has called us. You are influenced heavly by John Wesley and the Methodists.

You scored as Fundamentalist.

You are a fundamentalist. You take the Bible as the foundation of your faith and read it very literally, and it shapes your worldview. Non-fundamentalist Christians have watered-down the Gospel in your view, and academic study of the Bible stops us from 'taking God at his word.' Science is opposed to faith, as it contradicts basic biblical truths.

[Phil.2:12]

You are a fundamentalist. You take the Bible as the foundation of your faith and read it very literally, and it shapes your worldview. Non-fundamentalist Christians have watered-down the Gospel in your view, and academic study of the Bible stops us from 'taking God at his word.' Science is opposed to faith, as it contradicts basic biblical truths.

Some of these statements are not true for me, as I do not believe that all science is opposed to a life of faith, because there is much science that does not contradict basic biblical beliefs. Also, the academic study of the Bible may not stop us from taking God at His Word. It depends on what the theological view of the institution is and who is doing the teaching. Not all schools and universities are hopelessly liberal in their view of God and theology in general. I am somewhat put out by the "all-or-never" tone of the survey. As far as being a fundamentalist is concerned, that simply means that your faith rests on the basic fundamentals found in Scripture, rather than the explaination of the Scriptures the various denominations (especially the main line ones) come up with. Your faith is based more on what God says than what any one particular denomination may be offering and it is not a bad thing.

You scored as Neo orthodox.

You are neo-orthodox. You reject the human-centredness and scepticism of liberal theology, but neither do you go to the other extreme and make the Bible the central issue for faith. You believe that Christ is God's most important revelation to humanity, and the Trinity is hugely important in your theology. The Bible is also important because it points us to the revelation of Christ. You are influenced by Karl Barth and P T Forsyth.

I've always thought myself to be a Evangelical Fundamentalist with Charismatic tendencies, but whatever.

My friends I took the test it was pretty funny for me. The people they asked about I had no idea who they were so I took the middle ground. I know we all use labels to see if we can fit people under that label with a certain set of beliefs. I hate labels. For me it is to general. Anyway I had to look up three of my top % to see what they meant. But it was fun to see the results. The only label i accept is that I am a saved sinner and an adopted child of God. Love in Christ littlejoe

(I had to take a tie-breaker; it didn't indicate which direction I would have gone, but I saw the literal Creation in 6 days as more "important" than a theologian )

Now here's a shocker:

You scored as Roman Catholic.

You are Roman Catholic. Church tradition and ecclesial authority are hugely important, and the most important part of worship for you is mass. As the Mother of God, Mary is important in your theology, and as the communion of saints includes the living and the dead, you can also ask the saints to intercede for you.

My results:

You scored as Reformed Evangelical.

You are a Reformed Evangelical. You take the Bible very seriously because it is God's Word. You most likely hold to TULIP and are sceptical about the possibilities of universal atonement or resistible grace. The most important thing the Church can do is make sure people hear how they can go to heaven when they die.

Im curious what your results are.

I am not taking that test because I do not know what half of those people or things mean...ALl I know is that I take the whole Bible literally...i believe men have free will to choose GOd...and if anyone wants to know what I believe, just ask...oh and I am sold out for Jesus Christ. He is the utmost center of my life. I live to please Him, not through what I can do, but through faith...
