I agree with #5:

5) I am a Christian. I’ve received the gift of salvation, provided through the grace of God, by faith and apart from any of my own efforts. I love all members of the Body of Christ - the Bride God has called out for His Son - regardless of which particular church denomination they hail from. I realize that it isn’t a denomination, rite or statement of faith that places someone into the Body of Christ. Each group or denomination has tares that grow up alongside of the wheat. God will sort all that out in His time. As such, I consider all who have received His gracious gift to definitely be Christians. I believe in unity in the essentials and freedom in non-essentials.

Where I can work together with any conservative, I do. To the degree I can stand shoulder to shoulder with a fellow conservative over moral and political issues for the greater good, I do. This does not mean I place conservative politics above my commitment to Christ. I do not pretend heresy is Christian for the sake of getting along. I do not accept cults as Christian, for the sake of getting along.

“What does it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, but loses his soul?”

Yes, I like #5
