I often chose best answers not because they are the best, but because I have to choose a best answer. Please, don't take offense to it.

comment How does the New Testament define a Christian and a non-Christian, a brother in Christ and not a brother in Christ?
Thanks for your answer, but it's very abstract. In what way should one take up his cross? To what extend should one follow Christ? Isn't it like everyone has his own situation in life and, therefore, his own cross to take up and his own measure of following Jesus? Plus, I guess there can be a lot of false Christians who claim that they have taken up their cross and are following Jesus. In fact, I have even met some Muslims who say that they are following the steps of Jesus way closer than even some of the Christians.

(2) they do believe what the Bible says, as the infallible word of God, but their understanding of it is different from other Christian's understanding.

(1) I personally do believe in that, but the problem is that in the early manuscripts the word "God" is missing in 1 Tim 3:15-16 and instead of that it has "He who manifested..." But even if the word "God" was originally there, "Mormons" and "Jehovah's witnesses" believe that it should be understood as "god", not "God" (in original Greek manuscripts all letters were in the same case, there were no capital or small letters) meaning that Jesus is god (and is the son of God), but not God (like God the Father). So they say that

Thanks for your answer. So, if I understood you correctly, a person who does not believe that Jesus is God, but believes that Jesus is the Son of God (like "Mormons" and "Jehovah's witnesses") and has all the other things you've mentioned is also a brother in Christ and a Christian, right?

So, would the good-behaving "Mormons" and "Jehovah Witnesses" be your brothers in Christ then?
