I tend to quote scripture over a person.
This is why:

You used Spurgeon as your go to man...
----

As early as 1858 Spurgeon preached a broad way (i.e. ecumenism, Matthew 7:13-14).

"Our Father." That then, includes those of God's children who differ from us in their doctrine. Ah! There are some that differ from us as wide as the poles; but yet they are God's children. Come, Mr. Bigot, do not kneel down, and say, "My Father," but "Our Father." "If you please, I cannot put in Mr. So-and-So, for I think he is a heretic." Put him in, sir; God has put him in, and you must put him in too, and say, "Our Father." -Charles Spurgeon.

While he did an incredible job as a revivalist, he is still human.
Quoting scripture is the best thing we can do to lead people into the truth. Amen. =)

I do not hold to any sect, call it. But am a King James, born again bible believer. Amen. =)
==================================
I canNOT understand why you would speak of Spurgeon doctine however.... he lives in fear. Fear of being wrong, and if so.... he would by HIS OWN WORDS:

"If ever it should come to pass,

That sheep of Christ might fall away,

My fickle, feeble soul, alas!

Would fall a thousand times a day."

If one dear saint of God had perished, so might all; if one of the covenant ones be lost, so may all be; and then there is no gospel promise true, but the Bible is a lie, and there is nothing in it worth my acceptance. I will be an infidel at once when I can believe that a saint of God can ever fall finally. (ibid., 168-169, bold added)

It is a puzzling thing. The truth knocks on the door and you say, "Go away, I'm looking for the truth," and so it goes away. Puzzling.
