I agree with how the document was written. And I see no major revisions in the way it was expressed if I had been tasked to write it.
That is a yes, I agree with it basically given how I understand its total import.

IF you have difficulty with the assurance of your eternal redemption and the gift of eternal life, don't be made with trinitarians.
Look to see if you have some problem confessing Jesus is Lord and that God raised the Lord Jesus from the dead.
Examine if you have some problem with confessing and or believing in your heart according to all that Paul wrote in Romans 10:9.
If one says " Well, I don't want to confess Jesus is Lord and I don't want to believe in my heart that God has raised Him from the dead because that might involve me in believing in the Triune God."
That is a problem.
Don't blame LSM, the publishers of the book "The Beliefs and Practices of the Local Churches"
That is not a problem between you and trinitarians.
That is a problem between you and the Lord Jesus and the God who raised Him
from the dead.

Why did you think that was a particularly difficult question to answer?
Whatever arrests your willingness to confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, stops you from being saved.
If whatever you believe does not stop you from confessing with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believing in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead doesn't stop you from being saved.
That I think goes forany doctrine you may or may not ascribe to.
If you know that you have confessed with your mouth Lord Jesus and believed in your heart that God has raised your Lord from the dead, I wouldn't worry about it - in that booklety or any other.
No one can say, Jesus is Lord! except in the Holy Spirit." (1 Cor. 12:3)
