Any personality system based on observations of fallen man will of necessity have to be focused on describing unsanctified personalities. In other words, it is "of the flesh".

Gal 3:3 (NIV) Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?
1Cor 2:13 (NIV) This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.

How should we, how can we, classify people? If you want to put people in boxes, then try on God's sanctioned boxes. God classifies people very crisply. God's classification offends the Greek in us, for it is brutally simple.

There are God's people, and the rest. There are those who are "born-again", and the "born once". There are people who "know Him" and whom "He knows", and people who do not know Him and are not known by Him. There is Israel (after the flesh and "spiritual") and the Gentiles. There are the sons of God and the sons of Satan.

Two categories. Saved, unsaved. Simple, piercing, spiritual, true.
So it turns out there really are only two sorts of people after all! But not by arbitrary human whim, but by God's fundamental design of the universe.

Thus, I have given up on all sophistries to the contrary, and am adopting God's perspective. I would encourage you along the same line. Leave your horoscope to Jean Dixon.
