Absolutely. Scripture indicates that those who have entrusted themselves to CHRIST ALONE for their salvation and apart from their works, are true believers, part of the Body of Christ and the Bride of Christ. We are family, regardless of denomination.
Those who attend any denomination, but haven’t entrusted themselves to Christ alone for eternal life are NOT part of the Body or Bride of Christ. They are close, but not saved. I hope they will be. Until they are, they are not family.
