Incoming freshmen students enrolled in a Christian university (Southwestern

Assemblies of God University) were surveyed to determine their knowledge of the Bible

and their adherence to a Christian worldview. Results indicated an average score of 50.6

percent on the Bible knowledge survey, while 55.6 percent of the students held a partially

(or less) biblical worldview. Scores generated by the two instruments were correlated

utilizing the Pearson Product Moment correlation equation. A strong positive correlation

of .77 was found, significant at the p<01 level. The more Bible knowledge a student

possessed, the more biblical was his or her worldview. Stated differently, the less Bible

knowledge a student possessed, the less biblical was his or her worldview. This study

provides evidence that biblical literacy must be addressed in both curricular and

extracurricular efforts, even in a Christian university. It also demonstrates a negative

result of biblical illiteracy: the formation of a less than biblical worldview.
