Just an encouragement!

I'm gonna follow Izdaari's model

Edit: With more results!

1. Methodist/Wesleyan Church

Probably where, realistically speaking, I will end up. But it would have to be UMC.

2. Episcopal/Anglican Church

HEY! The other place I would probably end up! But the Episcopal church is a bit out there and ACNA is way conservative and reminds me of the Catholic church.

3. Evangelical Lutheran Church
It's ok but doesn't really hold anything special for me.

4. Mennonite Brethren

I think it was the pacifism thing that got me this. They are way too strict for me

5. Pentecostal

Too many debates with Charismatics, I don't agree with the theology plus I like quiet services.

6. LCMS Lutheran
Too conservative. No offense against Lutherans but I always feel excluded from anything Lutheran.

7. Orthodox Quakerism

Unrealistic given my views and situation.

8. Free Will Baptist
Possible? I mean Baptists are alright sometimes, most of them are Calvinists it seems like. So the less conservative ones I'd probably mix with well.

9. Seventh-Day Adventist
A bit out there for me.

10. Church of Christ
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

11. International Church of Christ
Uh whats the difference?

12. Southern Baptist
View result ten but with more emotions.

13. Presbyterian Church USA
Not a Calvinist as demonstrated by my first result.

14. Orthodox Presbyterian Church
I already said I am not a Calvinist, I think it is safe to assume I am not an orthodox Calvinist either.

15. Presbyterian Church AUS
Ok now this test is really messing with me; refer to (in this sequence) results 13 and 14 and then restate my general thesis on Calvinism. Also a minor detail: I'M NOT AUSTRALIAN

16. Roman Catholic Church

I grew up in the RCC...gives you an idea how much my thinking as changed!

I got a kick out of your response...knowing how you feel on that subject.

Yeah, actually I left out one of the best ones; Roman Catholic. Given that I was initially raised in that but it was even further down the list

Your Presbyterian comments made me chuckle, too.

Zoness · Sep 16, 2009

Yeah I found it odd that they all clumped together like that

SistrNChrist · Sep 21, 2009

I thought it was pretty accurate, since I got Pentecostal as my #1 answer and I go to an Assemblies of God church (which is Pentecostal)

LiturgyInDMinor · Sep 21, 2009

Spot on results from the selectsmart test (mentioned in the middle of this thread) for myself, here's my top 10 from there:

My #1 is: Presbyterian Church in America/Orthodox Presbyterian Church
My #2 is: Reformed Churches
My #3 is: Presbyterian Church USA
My #4 is: Reformed Baptist
My #5 is: Methodist/Wesleyan Church
My #6 is: Southern Baptist
My #7 is: Mennonite Brethren
My #8 is: Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod
My #9 is: Free Will Baptist
My #10 is: Evangelical Lutheran Church

I just left an SBC church(my #6) and just joined a PCA church(my #1)...go figure.

I got Methodist as my number one... I'm not even sure what that entails.

Does anybody have some reliable information I can go through about the Methodist Church?

It probably means little more than that you are deemed to be "middle of the road" overall.

Go to umc.org [think that's the website]. You can also ask about it in the Wesley's Parish Section of CF.

Thanks, but I'm assuming that you actually intended that helpful advice for "GarmentsOfPraise." I'm not looking for a new church and am familiar with Methodism--which is a " 'nuther matter altogether" from what causes this "denominational test" to come up with the recommendations it does.

Yay Methodists

Umc.org is the United Methodist church; the more conservative branches are the Wesleyan Church and the Nazarene church as well.

#1 Liberal Quakerism
seems to be tied with
#2 Unitarian Universalism
#3 Unity Church
#4 Seventh-Day Adventist

I expected to get high marks for Quakers and Seventh-Day Adventists, who I respect a great deal, though I do not think the particular kind of worship is for me. I hadn't heard of the Unity Church before, though. Now that I have read a bit about it, it looks really interesting. Maybe it could be the one for me. Thank you for the denomination test!

I never thought of myself as being a Baptist. I used to be a United Methodist. I'm currently a LCMS Lutheran.

I just made up an online test , where you answer 24 questions and it tells you what your denomination is as close to your belief as possible

▷What is your christian denomination ? SelectSmart.com free Religion personality test, selector quiz, matching, choose, compare.

Hope it is helpful

"Jesus is physically present during Communion/ Eucharist."I disagree with this statement and that makes me a Jehovah's Witness? You must be kidding!

Must have clicked on the wrong button. Sorry

#1 Baptist (Totally disagree. A few years ago, me and my family had a huge falling out with our Baptist church. Quite frankly, I am incredibly disillusioned with the Baptist tradition, and to some extent, Protestantism in general. I am now looking for another tradition and a change.)

#2 Catholic (Ok, that's interesting. I've had some interest. I have a rosary kit on order But I do wonder if I'm too liberal. And I'm skeptical of the Assumption and Immaculate Conception of Mary as being necessary points of doctrine, and I think the RCC tries to politicize itself too much. Ah well)

# 3 Methodist (I have no idea where this came from.... Its interesting, but not where I feel led.)

# 4 Orthodox (Interesting, I went to a Greek Orthodox service once and loved it. It was the full Liturgy, and I felt terribly weak for being unable to stand the whole time when there were elderly women managing it. I was impressed, to be sure. But again, I wonder if I am in fact too liberal. *sigh*)

# 5 Presbyterian (Interesting. The rest of my family now attends a Presbyterian church with some regularity. After leaving the Baptist Church, I think I was the one who was made most cynical, and haven't gone much at all)

Seventh Day Adventist?! Where did I go wrong . I don't care what the test says, I'm a baptist.
