"Theological worldview" quiz

I found an interesting online quiz that measures Christian's theological view. Of course, there are always some dangers in applying labels to oneself and others, but quiz is still fun. I was surprised at the results, actually, because I was rated 68% neo-orthodox, whatever that is. I consider myself a charismatic Christian, since I think that defines my theology more than anything. But I also get frustrated with a lot of teaching in the charismatic world, which I think is a little off-base. Anyhoo ... take the test yourself and let us know how you score! (Hint: Bishop Spong believes most of the Bible is moral allegory.)

Here are my results:

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 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.
