What kind of Theologian am I?

I came across this quote a few weeks ago which stuck out to me by RC Sproul:

"No Christian can avoid theology. Every Christian is a theologian. Perhaps not in the technical or professional sense, but a theologian nonetheless. The issue for the Christian is not whether we are going to be theologians but whether we are going to be good theologians or bad ones"

Growing up I was taught to have world view that was opposed to "theology" because you didn't need theology if you had the Spirit of God. Theology was mostly looked down upon as that was for old, non-spiritual, religious people. I have learned to love the study of God. I obviously do not believe that anymore and have come to see the Spirit move in my life through the Scriptures and through studying"Theology." Theology has helped me see Christ more Glorious and love Him more dearly.
I am grateful for people like RC Sproul who hold up the banner of true theology.
I want to be a good theologian!
