RE: Yes, I know EXACTLY how people in this tradition think: “Everyone who disagrees with us is of the devil!”

I think you’re exaggerating. I know several Moody Bible Institute graduates and I have not seen one who would say : “Everyone who disagrees with us is of the devil!”

It depends on the NATURE of the Disagreement. If you do not believe that Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity, then yes, the doctrine is heretical, but that would not be unique to Moody Graduates. Even Catholic and Eastern Orthodox doctrine would agree.

There is a difference between simply believing that you are in error in certain areas of scripture and saying that you are of the devil.

Absolutely. I did not mean to give that perception regarding MBI, which was actually quite balanced, and did not attack other Christian denominations. However, the school is often linked with Grace Theological Seminary and Dallas Theological Seminary as a top Evangelical school. I also attended other schools linked to Bob Jones University, which presented a very hardcore approach towards other denominations.
