Everybody in the body of Christ or those who claim the same sect or denominations as you do?

Everyone who is in the body of Christ.
Denominations should have nothing to do with Christianity.
What is St. Peter to do when you get to those Pearly Gates look down at his roster to see what denomination you are before the doors of Heaven will open, I don't think so!

Everyone, we are all one with God through Christ. He is the light of all men that come into the world. According to John 1:9 anyway.
So be you born Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Jew or anything else for that matter. That light of God is in you. Call it what you will, the Christ, the Buddha, God consciousness, Krishna consciousness or your consciousness, it is in you and all people you meet. Some are better at hidding it with the ego then others are, but it is still there.
And as a result all are my brothers and sisters. I love all because I love God and he is in all.
Blessings and peace to all,
All in all

You must be born of water and the Spirit to join God's family. This means you must be baptized (see John 3).
Obviously, this excludes many people who have not been baptized into God's family. A son or daughter of God is much different than simply a creature of God.
There is also a behavior test for God's family, as Jesus explains in John 8. Some men are children of their father, the devil.
42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me. Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Those who are slaves to sin are not part of God's family. They belong to the world, and they are not my brothers and sisters.

Those who believe that Jesus is the savior. It has nothing to do with denominations, sects, or titles.

If you are Repent, Be baptized in Jesus' name and are filled with Holy Ghost speaking in tongues as the scripture says(Acts2:37-38), then you are my brother or sister in Christ

I consider every person on this earth to my brothers and sister i.e. Love your neighbor as yourself - meaning every person in the world, not your next door neighbor.
I do not believe that Jesus wanted to separate the Christians, Jews, Muslims, etc. etc. he wanted all people to love each other, thus everybody being ones brother and sister.
