It always helps to know where your interests and needs are, so to get a sense of your current walk of faith

Take these little tests of your current knowledge of the things we hold dear...

If you are looking for theological discussion, here are the forums to look in.

RELIGION http://theologyonline.com/forumdisplay.php?5-Religion
For general religion discussion.

EXCLUSIVELY CHRISTIAN FORUM (a subforum of RELIGION) http://theologyonline.com/forumdisplay.php?21-Exclusively-Christian-Theology
For the more orthodox teachings such as, belief in the divinity of Christ, the bible as authoritative, creation over evolution, etc.


We also have two theological forums dedicated to the OPEN VIEW theology and MID ACTS DISPENSATION theology.

OPEN VIEW is the theology that God did not predestine every little thing that happens, and that His plan would happen accordingly no matter what scenario might arise.
It is in opposition to the Settled View that says that God predestined every action ever made.
OPEN VIEW THEOLOGY http://theologyonline.com/forumdisplay.php?77-Open-View-Theology


MID ACTS DISPENSATIONALISM http://theologyonline.com/forumdisplay.php?78-MidActs-Dispensationalism
The theology that Israel was put on hold while the age of grace commenced.
God goes to the Gentiles and forms the BOC (Body of Christ) believers, but will some day return to Israel to restore their kingdom on earth.

Enjoy!

A slight modification: open theism denies God can know the future assuming that since the future has not yet happened, God cannot know it as God exists within temporal time. But since God is really, really, "omnicompetent", He is capable of predicting what is going to happen to stay ahead of the actions of moral agents that He does not actually know until these moral agents actually act. In other words, God is continually learning new things as time passes, such that the God of Abraham actually epistemologically knew less than God today.

For more on open theism see:

Looks as though the Presbyterians have a firmer hold than I would have imagined. 94%

Biggest surprise? The Reformed Baptists. :shocked:

They must be doing something right! Reformed Baptist was number three for me after PCA/OPC and Reformed Churches.

I took the quiz you had posted in your earlier comment. It said Unity church as #1. It just so happens I went to my first service recently and stopped by the reiki healing group after church. Thanks TOL
