Not at all. Thats your false parody of the Orthodox position. The
Orthodox position continues to teach what it always has regarding
salvation. Whether new "churches" deviate away from that historical
Christian position is a matter for themselves and God at the Last Day.
Orthodoxy is content to leave them to their own imaginings, whilst
strenuously defending the truth that she guards.
