Shlama all--

Here is mine:

Your Results:

The top score on the list below represents the faith that Belief-O-Matic, in its less than infinite wisdom, thinks most closely matches your beliefs. However, even a score of 100% does not mean that your views are all shared by this faith, or vice versa.

Belief-O-Matic then lists another 26 faiths in order of how much they have in common with your professed beliefs. The higher a faith appears on this list, the more closely it aligns with your thinking.

How did the Belief-O-Matic do? Discuss your results on our message boards.

This is a rather interesting result, because every two years the Conservative Friends (Christian Quakers) meet in Barnesville, Ohio.

I went in 2006, and I felt from the first of the three day conference that I went to, that I immediately FIT RIGHT IN...................I would've gone again this Summer in June, but I was in the hospital that week for five days with severe asthma problems.

I would have told you guys, and asked you to pray, but the devil reads here at Peshitta.org TOO. <!-- s:wow: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wow.gif" alt=":wow:" title="Wow" /><!-- s:wow: -->

And in 1999 I was immersed into Baptism in the Church of God (Seventh Day) which has SOME resemblance to the SDA's except we don't feel that we have REPLACED ISRAEL in Alaha's economy!

Dear Christina,

I remembered how you said that you felt that I could move between various types of Faith.........

And that's very true.

I could easily move between the Conservative Friends (Quakers), "Celtic Christians", Church of God (Seventh Day), and Messianic Judaism, Charismatic Anglicanism, and perhaps The Church of the East (although they wouldn't take me though, because I've been divorced).

I've also (in the past) studied philosophical Taoism, via the Tao Te Ching, and Native American Spirituality.

I love these still, but I'm a Believer in Messiah Yeshua, and a lot of Native American Spirituality is very near to real old time British paganism, so I try to admire the Native American people, and not get tangled up in paganism.

I CAN say that the Tao Te Ching taught me to live pretty much in the NOW, which seems a very hard thing for most Americans to do.

I'm very thankful that I learned this valuable lesson.

And in my spiritual wanderings I also learned that "thoughts are things", and that what you put into your head, is what you get more of!

I was pondering all of this, and I wanted to share it with you and others on the Forum.

Shlama, Albion

P.S. I thought of this too.......

Usually when Maran Yeshua was gonna heal someone, He asked them "What would you have Me to do for you?" And then He would basically tell them that THEY had to have the Faith to accept the healing from Him, so part of the healing was incumbent on the person being healed,to have the FAITH TO BE HEALED.

I like that, that WE have a real part in the workings of The Kingdom.

1. Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (100%)

Of course I would agree with many of the tenants of Orthodoxy, Catholicism, and Judaism, though not all of them as currently practiced by the groups who espouse them today. The meter registered me as 100% more in line with a Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant practice. Over all this is right, but I don't completely agree or would always line up with that either in every instance of their doctrines or expressions per se. Basically, I follow the Holy Spirit and what God's Spirit teaches me on a daily basis and through the teachings as found in the Holy Scriptures, as I am lead and taught by the Holy Spirit.... As best as I am able with God's help of course. His Grace being sufficient for me....To me this is essential and without it at work in my life, I would be just a dead religion adherent. And that would be very sad....and a complete waste of time.

Thanks for the fun...

Shlama Mishpacha,

Well Christina, I'm sure you'll get a kick out of my "90's+" results! Hey Albion - you'll love my #1 hit! I second everything that Thirdwoe says. Looks like everyone here is "less theist" than the 'triune' Spyridon-Andrew-myself (lol)!
Oh .... except for our Monotheist Christina. Congratulations, Miss 13%!!!

Hmm weird. <!-- s:eh: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/eh.gif" alt=":eh:" title="Eh" /><!-- s:eh: --> I think what made Orthodox Judaism top my list is that I choose "One God" instead of the Trinity options, and "God has no body" over "God has a body", otherwise I would've come out as SDA, hehe <!-- s:oha: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/oha.gif" alt=":oha:" title="Oha!" /><!-- s:oha: -->

Even if nothing else, this little quiz should remind us that there's lots of common ground...

We're all perhaps just one or two discoveries from a change in classification; something we all need to keep in mind before labelling someone. Five years ago, I wasn't called "Jewish."
