We, or I, can say the same for the Church of Christ (Campbellites), who hold only they will go to heaven, everyone else, specially if they use musical instruments, are gonna burn. Except I mingled with them here, and not all the members in the CoC churches agree with the official "non-creedal" doctrine they are being taught, or coming from the pulpit.
But I think the topic here is about the Baptists, and if Baptist means the same as Recovery.
So I guess we need to define what Baptist means. I thought that was what we are doing, even when pointing out Baptist Landmarkism.
So so far we've failed to identify even what Baptist means.

I agree, would we also need to define the Recovery? What are the implications for each of us, either following Witness Lee and his church or being affiliated with a local church (maybe a denomination, maybe non-denom)?
