If I had members of my family that verbally abused me, why would I want to be around them? Yes, that would be sad for any org to teach.

For sole purpose of conversion? No. If it comes up or God opens a door, sure.

Well, maybe you're more mellow than the doctrine I was taught. That would be nice.

I simply say that because that is the double speak I am familiar with. I hope you are not saying that.

I don't care who they agree with. God convicts everyone with His Spirit. Most rebel, we have to, it's in our nature. But even common sense agrees with scripture.

But are other people who don't follow scripture with the same doctrines you do saved? Do you classify them as "in" or "out"?

That depends on the doctrine. Surely not everyone is saved.

Lots of groups classify Oneness as lost heretics
