I have taken one similar to this and the way a question is worded or how much weight they put on each response per person is always questionable. However, it's still fun. My favorite part of this is I have nothing in common with Charles Finney

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.

I don't think any Calvinist thinks they are following Calvin over Christ. What Christ taught is what we believe, but for our purposes on forums, discussions, etc., it easier for people to recognize our theology based off the terms "Reformed" or "Calvinist".

Do you call yourself an human, female, Scot, Briton, Presbyterian, etc.? You could make the argument that any label that is not "Christian" is somehow innately atheistic if we follow this line of reasoning. The label "Calvinist" is not inherently bad. Don't be shy about using it. Everyone understands that Calvinists are Christians. They just don't understand that they are the only consistent Christians.

Yes!! Got it first time! (And I didn't even have to rig it...)



You scored as Anselm.





​


Anselm is the outstanding theologian of the medieval period.He sees man's primary problem as having failed to render unto God what we owe him, so God becomes man in Christ and gives God what he is due. You should read 'Cur Deus Homo?

Anselm 100%
Karl Barth 80%
John Calvin 73%
Jonathan Edwards 73%
Charles Finney 60%
Friedrich Schleiermacher 60%
Jurgen Moltmann 53%
Martin Luther 47%
Augustine 40%
Paul Tillich 20%

Of course, they're wildly inaccurate...
