My theological worldview... probably!
HT to Fernando for highlighting this quizz on theological worldview. Fernando's pleasant surprise at finding himself in agreement with its outcome persuaded me to give it a whirl... and well these are my results...
What's your theological worldview? |
I top scored as Emergent/Postmodern... "You are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology. You feel alienated from older forms of church, you don't think they connect to modern culture very well. No one knows the whole truth about God, and we have much to learn from each other, and so learning takes place in dialogue. Evangelism should take place in relationships rather than through crusades and altar-calls. People are interested in spirituality and want to ask questions, so the church should help them to do this."
Now I agree with most of that description, except I don't feel alienated from older forms of church and I feel that many do connect with modern culture... which of course will explain the high % connection with evangelical holiness and Roman Catholic (maybe that also explains why I am such a fan of deep church!).
My no. 2 was neo-orthodox described (from Fernando's as)... "rejecting 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.” which is also very true and I agree with that as well...
At the end of the scale I am not at all very fundamentalist (maybe that comes from having been one and found to be wrong so often) nor very classically liberal - with a 3-way tie for the rest (modern liberal/evengelical and charismatic/pentecostal)...
If you take the test do let me know what you think and whether you agree with it or not?
