But, you may be right either way. Look at some of the "What we believe" page:

CHURCH MEMBERSHIP: Since all saved individuals are members of the body of Christ regardless of church affiliation, they are welcome (as is everyone) at Grace Bible Church which does not maintain church membership roles. We do not believe that any church should require more for church membership than God requires for salvation. The Lord knoweth them that are his. II Tim 2:19

I wonder if he would let anyone on this board join the church? How does one join his church anyway - there are no membership roles.

DENOMINATIONS: We believe that to divide the church which is Christ’s body into denominations is unscriptural. Since all saved individuals are members of the body of Christ there is no need to be divided into groups that were founded by men. We have no ties to any denominations, associations or ecumenical groups. We do associate with, and support those of like doctrine across the nation.

"No need to divide..."? Let him read the WCF on Baptism and see what he thinks then! Or, for that matter, any other part of the confession.

This man may not have the capacity to be reasoned with after all.
