But kosta, Yudan says "Aside from that, the Orthodox Church does not make pronouncements or declarations about where the Lord isn’t."

There are many sects and cults that claim to be "Christian" because they call on Christ's name. It's not where Lord isn't [sic], but what these sects believe.

There is but one official and binding Creed of the holy catholic and apostolic Church and that Symbol of Faith spells out what the Church believes in. Those who reject this Creed do not profess the holy catholic and apostolic faith and cannot be our Christian brothers and sisters.

Then your faith is in your church, not Christ. I call all men brothers who profess faith and salvation through Christ. Their church or expression of faith does not restrict their Christianity. That is between them and God to sort out.

I will judge a man to be a Christian based upon his adherence to the Bible, not a creed or dogma.
