But I digress, He sounded like 99.5% of the CHRISTIANS here who FIGHT for doing their 'duty' to be saved. Like being dunked in a tank of water to be saved.
Perhaps unintentionally, but you make a good point.
"Christianity" spans an extremely broad spectrum of beliefs (as do Buddhism and Hinduism, for that matter). At some point, you fall off the edge. New Age groups that promote "Ascended Master Jesus, Chohan of the 2nd Ray," are simply not Christian. Being very familiar with LDS doctrine, I think it's very questionable whether the LDS church is still within the Christian spectrum. Being very familiar with JW doctrine, I would place them at the far end but definitely on the Christian spectrum.
Where I would place any of them is, of course, irrelevant. The issue is where God will place them, which we'll learn some day.
The point your post underscores is that 95% of Christians think that one or more other species of Christians are promoting false doctrine, badly misguided, perhaps even lost. The Mormons and JW are merely the most convenient targets for the venom-spewing that 95% of Christians engage in all the time. The Catholics are, of course, another popular target but somewhat less convenient than the Mormons and JW.
But forget the convenient targets - the thinly or not-so-thinly disguised contempt and disdain that prevails throughout Protestant denominations cannot be denied. The thinly or not-so-thinly disguised contempt and disdain that prevails at Christian Forums and similar sites cannot be denied. I've been a Christian for 47 years, so don't try to tell me it can be denied.
Basically every one of the 41,000 Christian denominations (the last count of which I'm aware) has some level of contempt and disdain for a sizable percentage of the others. You apparently believe 99.5% of the Christians here are badly misguided.
I'm through playing this silly "correct doctrine" game. I will concern myself solely with my own understanding. God will judge who will be saved and who won't. I'm not a betting man, but I would bet that "correct doctrine" will play a far smaller role than most evangelicals expect, and my money would be on sincere Catholics, sincere JW and many other unpopular candidates making the grade.
Jehovah’s Witnesses do not believe in the bodily resurrection of Christ. They believe that after the crucifixion, Christ died and was resurrected as an invisible, non-material, glorious, spirit creature.
THAT IS NOT CORRECT. Again, I'm not here to promote or defend the JW. But why not get your information from the JW themselves rather than some "Why the JW are not Christians" site? I just spent 30 minutes reading two lengthy articles on the Resurrection at the JW site:
https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/jesus/final-ministry/tomb-empty-jesus-alive/ and
https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/wp20130301/resurrection-of-jesus/ . I literally didn't see one word with which I, in my most conservative Campus Crusade, Southern Baptist mode would have disagreed or with which I disagree now. They believe that, at some point
during the Ascension, Jesus essentially "dematerialized" into a purely spiritual body and entered into Heaven. And what do the rest of us think happened - that He sped across the entire universe like an ICBM until he reached the edge, at which point ... what? Or that once He rose out of view, some sort of portal opened and sucked Him in? The exact meaning of the Ascension and "how it worked" are indeed a bit of a mystery that most churches simply ignore. The JW deal with it as described, and I have no problem with their view.
