i mean, do you assume that they would go to hell just because they don't belong in the same denomination that you do?

Many people feel this way. Mainly becuase that is how the church split into denominations in the first place. There are those that believe if you don't speak in tongues you are not saved. There are those that believe if you are not baptized you are not saved. There are those that believe that the Trinity is a false God, etc. It is also human nature to want to be right and show everyone else that they are wrong (just look at the atheists on this site to know that this is not just a Christian phenomenon). However, I know that God is never going to come ask me if it is okay to let a certain individual into the kingdom of heaven!

maximum Christians are of the Born-back form. yet many at the instantaneous are not fundamentalist. some Christian call themselves Born-back even as surely they grew to change into Christians by technique of in basic terms being baptized in water yet not in any respect quite experiencing the Born-back adventure. maximum fundamentalist Christians belong to the old line denominations like southern Baptist. Many Born-back believers would also evaluate themselves Pentecostal or charismatic, in that they have got been baptized contained in the Holy Ghost and communicate with different tongues and perform contained in the presents of the Holy Spirit. The Baptist church completely denies any of this type spirituality. some ecclesiastical church homes do and some do not. Are you at a loss for words? So are we. There are actual many denominations each and each and every having their own little nook of idea and not in any respect prepared to settle for any incorrect way.

Friend, I am not in any denomination, I came out of them,where I go to church at, We don't have any denomination, we are Non-denomination, & we don't have a membership book either. Because any true Christian has his name in the Book Of Life. I have always believe God will Deal with anyone that is sincere to walk in Truth, Now, you ask about anyone, not going to our Non-denomination Church, Do I judge them, No, I don't. In fact in my church we have people that came out of every denominations there is, because they were hungry for Truth.

Absolutely NOT. It's not my place to judge anyone in this manner. It's my observation that this is typically a teaching of cults, such as Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists, ect.; however, there are some smaller denominations that believe this, as well.
Peace.
P.S. -- I'm a non-denominational Christian, if this means anything.

Jesus said '...you MUST be born again'. There is no other form of christianity outside of this so in answer to your question, you are a christian...or your not. You are 'born again' (which is not just a theory or a whipped-up emotion, but a tangable experience) ...or your not. Satan believed in God and Jesus, but that didn't make him a christian. The belief alone isn't enough. Just for the record...these are not my rules, they're God's. Read the book of Acts.

No. I attend a Baptist church, but I don't consider myself to be "Baptist." And I CERTAINLY don't think that all other denominations are wrong. I am a Christian first. I serve God. If other people in other denominations do the same, then they are not going to hell.

Although I am a pastor, I would never tell anyone they had to belong to any specific group be it a church, a denomination or religion to be saved. It is not my job to judge anyone other then what I know the Bible tells us is the only way to obtain salvation....through Jesus Christ.
If one tells me they do not believe in Jesus...then I can lovingly tell them that salvation only comes by Jesus as Jesus said in John 8:24, unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sin.
It is not my job to force feed them either because all I can do is offer. It is up to them to accept. You can see this offer fully in the link below

The Scripture says that we are to ".....shake the dust off our feet as a testimony against them," But it still doesn't give us the right to judge, for God is the righteous Judge and he will offer opportunity for repentance until the day they blaspheme Him, or die whichevere comes first.

Yes the bible tells us to condemn non-believers.

All we can do is quote what the bible says. Our personal opinions really don't matter.
