I took the test for self help, just to see if my knowledge supported my beliefs. i scored a 30 and was surprised , but pleased. I think every Pastor should take it for personal knowledge if nothing else. thanks for making it available.

Very interesting, but too short to be more than a quick survey of issues. Some of these require much more explanation than a 5 point multiple choice question can reveal. Some of these appear to be inverted in my opinion! Number 14 for instance: Although I am conservative I had to choose position 5 since the historical context is clearly required to fully understand any passage. This is not a progressive position, it is a conservative one.

The assessment's answers are not mutually exclusive. I scored 49 - conservative - but disagreed with even my own answers! For instance, I can feel that adultery "deserves" capital punishment, without thinking capital punishment must or should be imposed... that's GRACE! Similarly, Homosexual prohibition IS accurate, but CAN be handled with grace. Questions like "Context for reading the Bible is..." cannot be answered without allowing for both relational and universal consideration. Neither answer is accurate. That said, I feel like I didn't fall somewhere between 1 and 5 on many of the questions, because the assume contradiction among answers where there is none with a truly strict semantic set. Still, thanks for the exercise - I would like to see more assessments, but with more carefully chosen verbiage.
