It does make things easier if you just say, "If you're not one of us; you're not a Christian." Instead of inquiring into someone's experience and understanding of the gospel, you can just ask, "Are you WELS?" And if they say "No", you can turn your back and walk away leaving that unwashed Philistine where stands.Some WELS Lutherans won't even pray with you if you aren't also WELS.
