They would identify with every one in which Jesus is Lord. By that I mean that the only requirement to partake is being baptized into the name.
Likewise, even if you are baptized you still need to deal with sins, i.e. examine yourself, and that requires the blood of Jesus.
They would have a problem with any group that lifted up another name besides Jesus, that bowed the knee to some other authority other than Jesus. For example, if you required circumcision in addition to the Lord's saving work on the cross.
This is why we feel it is important to examine this doctrine.
1. Is the doctrine of MOTA lifting up another name besides Jesus?
2. Is the MOTA a mediator of the covenant in addition to Jesus?
3. Why were the elder's of every church required to pledge loyalty to WL if Jesus is Lord?
4. Why do they justify division from born again believers who have been redeemed by the Lord's blood?
5. Why do they mock this examination, saying it is a "rock fetch" exercise when Paul clearly charged us to examine ourselves?
