looking for a church?

Check this out, an online quiz to determine which Christian tradition suits you best. Here are my results:-

1. Baptist (non-Calvinistic) / Plymouth Brethren / Fundamentalist - 100%
2. Pentecostal / Charismatic / Assemblies of God - 87%
3. Baptist (Reformed / Particular / Calvinistic) - 86%
4. Anabaptist (Mennonite / Quaker etc.) - 85%
5. Congregational / United Church of Christ - 70%
6. Seventh-Day Adventist - 70%
7. Methodist / Wesleyan / Nazarene - 68%
8. Lutheran - 67%
9. Church of Christ / Campbellite - 66%
10. Presbyterian / Reformed - 66%
11. Anglican / Episcopal / Church of England - 65%
12. Eastern Orthodox - 61%
13. Roman Catholic - 40%

Our E&D would be so proud...haha! I found it interesting however, to see that I've got a strong leaning towards the Pentecostal / Charismatic / AoG churches ;)

Contradictory? Maybe.

Or perhaps we aren't that different after all?

honestly, i'm pretty surprised by my results too. I certainly wasn't expected to be tagged a "fundamentalist" after having chosen one or two "non-fundamentalist" selections.

Chris...not surprised by your #1, but Anglican(#2)?? Eastern Orthodox(#3)?? oooooooooohhhhh...hehehehe

But yeah...it's all for the fun of it ;)

Confounding. The second test (by sivin) is even worse. Though I've no qualms with reformed/presby governance and all. But Eastern Orthodox is stretching it...keke...

Looks like you and jv are the pure-blooded brethrens :) Darby must be proud.

pure-blooded Brethrens i dunno lah...we're probably Mullerites than Darbyites i.e. "open brethren" rather than "closed brethren".

Unknown said...

and oh yeah Chris...you and Lareina can probably go visit the church "down the road" together this Sunday. She got Eastern Orthodox too...TWICE!! hahahahahaha
