If so, then you add proof to the lack of care in the use of language by the whole of the apologetics arm of the LRC. It is incapable of truly having a conversation in which it really says what it means. Or is alternately incapable of really believing what the Bible actually says.

I fully stand by it, what is your problem with it? You don't believe that Muslims cannot be saved? It's another way of saying that a truly saved person knows that Jesus is the only salvation, not Islam etc. A person who does not know that Jesus is the only salvation has never met the Savior or been saved themselves, because, if a person had truly found salvation in Christ they would know that is the only way.
The bible reveals that a saved person knows they are saved and that Jesus is the only way. This is found in 1 John 5:12-13.
Ask any Catholic or Orthodox and they will tell you they are unsure if they are saved or not, and furthermore, they believe that non-Christians like Muslims can be saved. They believe that in the name of love and tolerance, sugar and spice and all things nice.
Catechism of the Catholic Church,1 paragraph 841, says Muslims together with the Catholics, "adore the one, merciful God."
So the Catholic do not really believe in the Trinity, they believe in the "Allah" of Islam, the anti-Christ counterfeit to the true and living Triune God. The Muslim do not believe in the Trinity, therefore for Catholic to say they worship the same God, is to say that Catholic's worship Allah, not the Trinity. Can read about that on CARM here:
