3 Questions for a total of 4 points!

"14. Did you read any of the "Left Behind" books or watch the movie? if yes -1"

Saw the movie (rental), don't own any of the books.

"17. Do you have any Max Lucado books in your personal library? if yes -1"

Yes -a couple, but I don't even remember their names. Something about 'grace' if my memory serves me. But then again, I also have 'the Book of Mormon' and Mary Baker Eddy's book.

"22. Do you attend any church that's name begins with "United"? if yes -2"

Actually it's the denomination -United Reformed Church.

So, can I take the questions, but give up the points?

Jean

Re: your Arminian test

#4 - yes, but I got it as a "freebie" with a Finney book and it concerned Mormonism (but was promptly discarded anyway)

#17, my wife had some given to her

#19 No, but does "my kid beat up your honor student" count?

#45 Yes that bothers me - I can see the rationale in that abstension gives no foothold for sin (conversely a foothold for legalism), BUT - Christ used wine at the last supper.

Let me ask a question. In using wine in communion, what is the Calvin stance regarding consumption otherwise. Free Methodists abstain altogether (myself for medical reasons & past abuse issues). I'd be curious to learn what the Anibaptists do. I do miss my Sunday wine, a heel of french bread and some imported peccorino romano.

I scored a two overall. However, having a strong romanist leaning should disqualify me altogether.
