Christianity has a series of essential doctrines (virgin birth, crucifixion, resurrection, salvation, etc.), and a LOT of debatable doctrines (i.e. doctrines where healthy, honest disagreement among Christians absolutely does not threaten Salvation). Rapture (pre-trib, post-trib, mid-trib, none, blah, blah), confession, the divine authority of the papacy, the specifics of the prophecies of Revelation, etc. all seem to me to fall into the category of debatable doctrines — there can be honest disagreement among faithful Christians.
So long as a person hits the big stuff, I don’t think it matters much where they fall on the small stuff. His Grace will no doubt cleanse us of the doctrinal errors that I’m sure we’ve each made.
