Quiz: Do You Have a Biblical Worldview?

I put together this six-question multiple choice test to help people see if they have a biblical worldview, or not. There’s an answer key at the end as well as a consolation prize for those who do not pass the test.

The Test

Is abortion wrong? (Hint: Exodus 20:13)

A) Abortion is wrong.
B) People can decide for themselves whether abortion is wrong. 
C) What does abortion have to do with a biblical worldview?

How many genders are there? (Hint: Genesis 1:27)

A) There are two and only two genders.
B) People can decide for themselves how many genders there are and which gender they want to be whenever they want to be it.  
C) My gender is none of your business unless I make it your business by insisting you remember my pronouns.

If you are on the beach looking at the ocean, where do you think all of that water came from? (Hint: Genesis 6-9)

A) The water came from Noah's global flood.
B) The water got there somehow billions of years ago.  
C) Who cares where the water came from?

Given that people speak many languages today where did this linguistic diversity come from? (Hint: Genesis 11:1-9 and Douglas Petrovich’s explanation)

A) The diversity originated from God confusing the language of the people at Babel. Then the Babel dispersion began. From that dispersion language families arose.
B) The diversity happened somehow as the result of a long evolutionary process taking perhaps a million years. 
C) However it happened, no god had anything to do with it.

What’s going to happen to us? (Hint: Revelation 4-22)

A) Jesus will return for His bride. Our spirits will never cease to be.  Our bodies and souls will be renewed. The only concern will be whether we are part of His bride, or not.
B) Humanity will go on for millions, if not billions, of years searching the stars for other intelligent lifeforms and then it will go extinct.
C) Whatever happens there will be no heaven, no hell, no nothing—--Get used to it!

Who is Jesus? (Hint: See this list of Bible verses.)

A) Jesus is God, the second Person of the Trinity.
B) Jesus, like Buddha and Socrates, was a great guy with sound moral teaching whom we should use as a model if we want to be good like he was.
C) Jesus never existed.

The Answer Key

How did you do on the test?

If you answered A for each of the above, then your worldview is biblical. If you answered B or C, even once, you need to ask yourself: What made you think those answers had any chance of being correct?

The Consolation Prize

For those who flunked the test there’s still Buddha, Sarasvati, Gaia, Thor, Moloch, Lucifer and Cosmic Consciousness to name a few of the many options that remain. Pick one or more of them. Then think and think and think going down, down, down the rabbit hole until…

Until when?

…until you get tired of the futility and long for the real thing.

  1. Thanks Frank for giving us the quiz . Iam happy to say I passed it . However when I was reading the choices it appeared to me that many of the wrong ones are accepted by many. Another concern is I am hearing that versions of the Bible are being written now to be socially accepted, As Jesus our Lord correctly stated the road to Hell is wide while the road to salvation is narrow and the way I see it many folks now a day think The Lord is such a nice guy that all is forgiven and that Jesus came to do away with the old laws . Sad Sad Sad. Keep the Faith my brother! Dan

    1. Good point that the road to Hell is wide. I tried to imitate some comments I’ve heard in the B and C answers. Indeed there was a time when I didn’t think Noah’s flood was global so I would not have been able to get that question right. Thankfully even looking at the geology (mountains, glaciers, canyons) I now see that it must have been a global catastrophe. Thank you, Dan, and blessings!

  2. Taking a life is always wrong. But I am not the judge. God loves the victim and the murderer alike. Since no one can keep the law perfectly and if you are guilty of one tiny point, you are guilty of all of it, I rely on the grace of God.

    God made the male and female, then sin entered the world. Things have gotten mutated and mixed up for as long as we can remember. DNA specifies many differentiations in just the past 1000 years. But once again, my gender is not a qualifying question I need to answer to get to heaven. I rely on the grace of God.
    Before the flood, the mist came up from the ground to replenish the plants and animals. It was only after the flood that the rainbow showed up. This means that until then there was no refraction of light by water droplets in the air. In Genesis 1:9 the bible talks about the waters of the deep and the fish, so I would say the landscape of the world changed during the flood, but there were large bodies of water before the flood, because it mentions the springs of the great deep burst forth. (geysers?)
    Linguistic diversity is apparent in that there are many times Americans cannot understand the British! 🙂 The Babel dispersion makes perfect sense.
    Yes, Jesus is coming back. I don’t decide who is part of his bridal party; He does. I believe when he comes it will be the 2nd time. I also believe that He came to save us and because of his sacrifice, I am saved.
    Of course, there is an afterlife.

    1. It sounds like you passed the test, Rebecca! You made a good point about judging: We aren’t the judges. These questions aren’t criteria for getting to heaven, just having a biblical worldview. As Romans 10:13 says, whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Hopefully all the people with a biblical worldview will call upon the name of the Lord. They have no good reason not to. Hopefully a lot of others will as well.

  7. This was a creative way to get people to consider their core beliefs. Mine is a Biblical view, though I admit to a period of agnosticism in my youth. I recently watched a documentary on the James Webb Telescope and while the development team was watching the incredible and wonderous scenes of the universe, one of them declared “OMG!” Another member of the team, the son of an Evangelical Pastor snarked, “Who is that?”

    Many in that group were openly denouncing God’s Hand in creation, but these images bolstered my conviction that the universe was indeed created by Him. How can “magical” dust just come into being on it’s own and “decide” to create what we see today?

    1. The universe was created by the Word of God. There is no other way it could have gotten here – from nothing. There had to be a supernatural cause, since natural causes can’t do things like that. They have to start with something, not nothing.

      As I understand it, the JWST is showing galaxies too large, too well formed and too close to the supposed “big bang” for the big bang to have actually caused them. And so one more theory of how mankind can do without God bites the dust.

      Blessing to you, Mark!
