Seriously? C’mon brothers and sisters in Christ— Step it up! Be a friend to sinners! Do not condemn them! This kind of garbage is what gives us a bad reputation. Jesus was a friend to prostitutes, murderers, tax collectors (scums of the day), the homeless, adulterers, homosexuals… that is how He witnessed and flipped the world upside down! Why do we think we must avoid sinners? The Lord is the only thing that can take away the sin, not us, but if we reach out a hand, be the hands and feet of Christ, we can help and fulfill the great commission!— a commandment to go and tell. Not to condemn.  Matthew 28:18-20 New International Version (NIV) 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
