The definition of Christian has changed in the last several years. It once indicated persons who believed and followed Jesus' teachings, and conducted their lives in a manor that reflected those deeply held beliefs. Now, in very many cases, it is nothing more than a political statement, and what Jesus actually said holds little importance.

It’s the Sermon on the Mount, the “woke” part of the NT. I’m afraid none of your options adequately define my position.

The devil can quote scripture.

By the way, not necessarily on topic, but I watched a two-year old film called "Nefarious" yesterday. It very much solidified some important things about my faith with which I had struggled. You might get a lot out of it. Full length on YouTube. If you'd like a link, let me know.

In my view - admittedly on the Conservative side - a "Christian" denomination is one that basically accepts the theology contained in the Nicene Creed.

Accepting any religion that claims to follow JC includes Mormons, which is manifestly not a Christian religion in any meaningful way. They mock the most basic tenets of Christianity. They believe, for example, that good Mormons can become GODS in the afterlife if they lead a good life.
