Min's point is that they are not christians only by YOUR definition, and you are not the one who gets to decide what defines a christian on this planet. Those christians who do not fit your definition will simply say that you yourself are the one who is not a true christian according to THEIR definition.
You see his point?
Every christian believes he is right and the other christians are wrong. Look at Westboro Baptist. Those imbeciles believe that they are the TRUEST of christians and there's no way you could ever convince them otherwise.
Regarding the actual topic of the OP...
Let's look at what Christ said to His disciples, "you will know them(christians) by their fruits." "Not everyone who says to me,' Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of the Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, 'Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name,and do many mighty works in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me,you workers of lawlessness.' So yes true christians will know the false ones and Christ said not all who claim to be christian will enter the kingdom of heaven. Quite simple really.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
