Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ.
Those other things listed can fall into the *disputable matters* category, that Paul discussed in Romans 14.
I do not demand that everyone agree lockstep with all the theological details I adhere to. There is legitimate leeway for disagreement on issues not related to salvation.
Part of it is recognition that people are at different places in their walk with God. If their theology needs to be straightened out, yes, there is a place for pointing it out but ultimately, it is GOD’S responsibility and He will take care of it in HIS time.
I don’t need to go beating someone over the head to force compliance to a statement of faith that I agree with.
There simply may be other issues in their lives that need more attention by the Holy Spirit than whether they agree about what day of the week to worship on or whether someone should eat kosher or not.
The Catholic church certainly is in no position to point fingers about differing opinions on theological matters. What with the syncretism that exists in so many third world countries, where local religions, witchcraft, and voodoo are blended with Catholicism and the Church doesn’t do anything about it, it’s hypocritical for Catholics to point fingers about theological differences.
They seem pretty intent on cleaning up everybody else’s house and not their own.
True.
But this begs the question of what true "faith" is.
What is it that we have to believe about Christ? What do we have to believe about His commands? Do we have to fulfil His commands, to truly believe in Him? Do we have to fulfill His command to "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" (Luke 6:31)? IOW, do we have to evidence our faith through our works, because "faith without works is dead" (James 2:26)? Must we be baptized (Mat 28:19)? Must we "remain in Him" (John 15:4)? Is it true that, "unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you"? (John 6:53)
