How about the Muslim religion that DOES view Jesus as being a great Prophet sent from God and indeed call him Messiah in the Quran?

1 John 5:1 says:
"If you believe that Jesus is the Christ --that he is God's Son and your Savior-- then you are a child of God. And all who love the Father love his children too."
So, in my opinion, if someone believes in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus, I can call him or her brother or sister.
JW's believe that Jesus is the archangel Michael so they would not fit into the
1 John 5:1 category. Muslims would not fit into the
1 John 5:1 category either. Some Mormons could meet the
1 John 5:1 category.
