What the Free Tests Say About Me
June 19th, 2006 by Carl Thomas.So I took a bunch of those online tests over the last I don’t know how long and I am now posting the results. I like this personality test. It says that I am a reformer.
Then, I went to see what theologian I am
You scored as Martin Luther. The daddy of the Reformation. You are opposed to any Catholic ideas of works-salvation and see the scriptures as being primarily authoritative.
Which theologian are you? |
Here is the Theological Worldview test:
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.
What’s your theological worldview? |
What is my Church Model?
 |
You scored as Herald Model. Your model of the church is Herald. The organization of the church is much less important than the urgency of announcing the Good News of salvation to all the world. The Holy Spirit moves the individual to belief in Jesus Christ and to do the will of the Father by sharing this message with others. As with other models, the narrowness of this model could be supplemented by drawing on other models.

I took the tests also…
Came up 100% Anselm, 100% Wesleyn, 100% Herald.
Not bad for an ostracized AG Evangelist!

David,
Have you been studying the fundamental truths or what?
I took the tests and here are the results:
87 % Karl Barth (is that good or bad?)
82 % Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan (Charismatic on second with 71 %)
78 % Herald Model (which I think is good)
Waves of Glory I send to you my friend! Greetings from Germany!

I think it a good thing. Here is a Bath Quote,
“Jesus does not give recipes that show the way to God as other teachers of religion do. He is himself the way.”
I think I’m a 5 on the Enneagram, or maybe a 6. “Mystical Communion” was my highest score on the Dulles test, with the Servant and Sacrament models high as well- that’s the same as when I read the book in undergrad.
I thought my denominational listings were more interesting:
1: Assemblies of God
2: Mennonite Brethren
3: Methodist/Wesleyan Church
4: Seventh-Day Adventist
5: Southern Baptist
I’m not sure what I would have guessed, but that isn’t it.
Julie - What do the Friends think about the Baptism in the Holy Ghost. You guys were quakeing while we were still methodist!
You probably scored that way because the authority of the Scriptures. I played around with it to see which answers were more heavily weighted and there was one that asked about scripture verse experience. Experience put me Seventh Day Adventist and Scripture got me AG.
But welcome to the revival!
I’m not a Quaker, really, I just play one at school. I’m a member of an independent Pentecostal fellowship back home, but for some reason I didn’t connect that to the AG score. The AG folks I know have a much more hierarchical understanding of church than I do.
Friends are funny; there are lots of different sorts, and not all of them even call themselves Christian. Most of them don’t do water baptism, though, and Christian Friends tend to read all the New Testament references to baptism as to baptism in the Holy Ghost. Testimony from early Friends involves healings and visions, but I don’t hear much of that now. Prophetic speaking in worship is going strong, though, in some meetings.
That’s a good question, and I’m curious enough to ask around a bit and see what I come up with.
I think how the AG has morphed and what the AG believes are 2 different things. I now go to an AG church though I have always been in independant charasmatic churches.
Regarding the friends thing though please if you blog it send a ping to me.
I would love to pick your brain sometime about what you learned there with your schoolmates.
A friend tells me that this is the statement that Quakers often refer to when discussing baptism. Barclay writes that “the baptism of John was a figure [of baptism of the Spirit and of fire] which was commanded for a time and not to continue forever,” which sums the position up nicely.
Wow! Did you know there are over 12,000 words in that? Reading it makes the KJV seem clear. I have to admit that I chuckle a little at the fact that the Baptism was for a time but that document is forever. It was written in the 17th century!
