Well before we go here, you have to deal with the presumption that he is trying to be a faith teacher of some kind.
I would have asked him that question directly then gone with his answer from there.
This article didn’t even deal with this, go reread it.
It immediately went into attacking Glen Beck by saying he isn’t a Christian.
The attack wasn’t due to him declaring himself a Faith Teacher or Pastor or what ever .... that premise was never discussed in the article as a central point if at all.
He coauthored a spiritual book and has led spiritual rallies, so yes, he is trying to be a faith teacher.
OH?
Here Glenn Beck goes again, claiming he's a Christian, this time at Restoring Courage 2011 — Jerusalem.Glenn gets upset when anyone questions his Christianity.
That's weird because he's a Mormon who affirms the official teaching of Mormonism aka the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS).
The LDS outright deny many of the essential doctrines of the Christian faith.
Moreover, LDS doctrine contradicts what Scripture teaches.
So of course there are Christians who feel Beck's not a true follower of Jesus Christ — not the Jesus of the Bible anyway.
When his "I'm a Christian" claim is held up to scrutiny Glenn gets his knickers in a knot.
At the rally he choked up with emotion and said in an accusatory tone that only Christians question his salvation.

More and more of Becks comments and ‘messages’ are sneaking in Mormon doctrine.
Beck claims to be a Christian but he cannot be, not and be a Temple attending, true believing Mormon like he says he is. So he is either lying, or not a Christian.
Christians are called to judge false teachers and Beck is subtly teaching Mormonism and most people don’t know it but Beck does - that is dangerous.
