This quiz should be tweaked more.
IMO, this test is better than most of its kind. But unless we have the overview of all the answers given by those who feel the test didn't peg their faith accurately--not just the church named at the end of it--I don't suppose there is any way of tweaking or improving anything. |

That's true, although I don't know how you test for someone like me. It didn't get me close at all... but what test would, considering that I'm charismissional Anglican or Lutheran by doctrine, with strong Catholic and Orthodox sympathies, but a happy member of a much more liberal than average (or less fundamentalist, depending on PoV) Assemblies of God church?
Still, it gave my #1 match as Seventh-Day Adventist, and my #2 match as Baptist. That's not even remotely close, though it could've been worse.

No guilt of life, no fear of death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘Til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand

Yep, and others had the same result. So, while I'm sure that it failed them, it hit me right on the button, and none of these kinds of tests seem ever to do that. Being an Anglican but not inclined towards Anglo-Romanism, there's every opportunity to have misplaced me, or so I thought.
Anyway, it would be fun and interesting if we knew how everyone who didn't get scored appropriately answered each question, because that might tell us why the test erred. That's too much to ask, however, so I'm satisfied to say it's a mystery.  |

Different aspect/test:
.
Watchman Nee showed that no domination could do the Gospel.
.
Then witness lee ironically(and unwittingly) proved it again by creating a new one frjom counterfeiting, plagarizing and perverting Watchman Nee's writings to a different goal (greed, power, etc).
.
See reviews of Watchman Nee's
book "The Normal Christian Church Life"
but be careful not to get a copy from 'living stream publishers' (that's the publisher that corrupted the original works/writings/teachings).

like in G.rm.ny, did you know the doctors there are allowed to cure leukemia with vitamins and minerals. No toxicity and very low cost. Takes a few weeks. Not legal for doctors in the usa because "it can't be patented" (that's their own words, their own reason) |
