    Yeah I've taken this before and got the same answer:

    Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan with NeoOrthodox pretty close.

    Good quiz. A lot better than another worldview quiz that I took which told me I was a secular humanist...ha!

    This is a bit scary Preach - we scored about the same!


    You scored as Neo orthodox.

    [​IMG]




    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.

    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. Science is opposed to faith, as it contradicts basic biblical truths.



    I'll buy that.:thumbs:

    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.

    I had a terrible time cutting and pasting this (kept getting some kind of "bad girls" advertisement). I don't know where the Holiness part or the Methodist part comes from in this evaluation (never been to a Holiness church and only to a Methodist church on a Scout Sunday about 15 years ago), but I don't disagree with the balance of it.

    I gotta wonder why so many of the non-Calvinists are scoring so high on the Reformed Evangelical?

    I scored as Reformed Evangelical.

    I did now that I was an evangelical with fundamentalist leanings . But I did not know I was reformed. Guess reformed litterature that I read the last year (or is it my bible study, it may be that the bible is reformed) has given a result.

    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.

    Not a very good test...

    Here's a couple of troublesome statements (out of many):

    Jesus was an excellent moral teacher who's example we should do our best to follow.
    Every person who believes that Jesus is Who He says He is would have to say that He was a great moral teacher (although, not just a moral teacher) that we should do our best to follow. Just because that phrase is often used by the most liberal parts of Christendom doesn't mean it isn't absolutely true. The difference is that non-liberal believers believe that Jesus was more than a moral teacher.

    "God says it. I believe it. That settles it."
    It doesn't matter if "I believe it", the matter is settled when God says it.

    That being said, here are my scores:

    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.
