Kinda whacko, no wonder the true born again believers are being persecuted...

There are more than 45,000 denominations globally. Followers of Jesus span the globe. But the global body of more than 2 billion Christians is separated into thousands of denominations. Pentecostal, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Baptist, Apostolic, Methodist — the list goes on.

Is "love all. offend none" biblical?

A true man of God would not remove the person from the congregation. I believe the pastor at the pulpit should commend their bravery to stand up in front of all and answer their question.

Unless it becomes then norm, then the pastor will need to tell the congregation, ''Hey all, just too many interruptions now, can't keep doing this''. But if its a once off, the worst thing you can do is remove the person with security. The individual is holding a bible and merely talking, they are not being a threat to anyone.

I fully concur @KingJ

The idea of "many paths to Jesus" is rooted in a broader theological concept known as inclusivism, which acknowledges the possibility of salvation outside of explicit Christian faith. Inclusivism holds that God's grace is not limited to those who profess Christianity but extends to all people, regardless of their religious affiliation. It recognizes the potential for individuals to encounter God and find truth and salvation through different religious traditions.

Christ said he is the only way.
Those who say the are saved or a believer but then say they are not christian are lost.
If you do not accept Jesus Christ as savior you are lost and undone. No true child of God can say they are heaven bound but not a christian.
Men live in the delusion of their own minds.

If Buddhist followers of Mohammed and those of the muslim faith can be saved,Christ died for nothing.

Yes, the number of denominations is shocking. But what always interested me is why some of them are completely different from the others. I don't mean the historical events that led to this (by the way, I've recently read a good article about presbyterian vs catholic beliefs https://www.christianpure.com/learn/presbyterian-vs-roman-catholic that enlightened me). I mean how people who used to live nearby and believe in the same things could change their opinions that much? And now, watching the videos here, I understand that with all changes in the modern society, a lot of people have been going through similar issues.

I would say that these people are business men. Not christians.
