A poster said this in another thread:
"Christains, J.W. [jehovahs witness] and everyone else on earth. The Father's Children. All of us!"
As a stand alone statement would any Chrisitans accept this?
If it needs qualifying, then what scriptures, biblical precedents and parables would you cite to support your position?
Note: this not me setting up a JW debate, however their invited contribution in this thread will inevitably bring their organisation into the mix. I'm interested in all views on where you feel the inclusion/exclusion line needs to be drawn; for an obvious example: the deity of Christ? For a less obvious one, the parable of the sheep and the goats as mentioned by twhitehead in the OSAS thread?
