That someone with a different dogma is surely doomed--when God judges his heart?

With the judgement you give, it will be given to you. This truth of yours,

"In the NT covenant, there is no one going to be saved outside of Acts 2:38. If the Jewish people don't embrace that truth, they will be like you - denying that God has come to seek and to save that which are lost..."

is clearly out of line, and

"Not believing that God has manifest himself in flesh is anti-christ."

is surely true, but that doesn't mean that you get to define this. Using Acts 2:38 as a detector or some sort of verbal mantra that must be verbally agreed to i order to proceed is poorly applying Scripture at least, and as we see, leads to pride, and judgement. You are not God, that you can say this.
Let's look at what truth says, regardless of "feelings":

Quote:
"Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying? But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. Matthew 15:12-14
There is no pride here. Judgment is weighed by truth. Jesus teaches a principle we can stand on - truth that we are assured of - there is only ONE DOOR.

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber." John 10:1

You will notice that Walks is telling us what the Bible is saying. We are responding in kind.

It is true that God judges the heart, but He never tells us not to teach truth in the meantime. You will notice I have stated:

I realize that there may be a time wherein Walks could have a revelation of who Jesus Christ is. Until that day, I will defend what I believe is truth when I am challenged. He is trying to explain the Bible from a Trinitarian point of view. I am not a Trinitarian.

And I am fully aware, as I stated, there is ONE DOOR and there is ONE GOD.
