Jesus loves the Sinner, but hates the sin. He forgives the Sinner, but not the sin. He said to the woman brought to him accused of adultery, “Go and sin no more.”
So in other words:
Go and lie no more.
Go and fornicate no more.
Go and murder no more.
Go forth from this place where you have laid yourself bare at my feet and commit that sin no more.
As followers of CHRIST we turn our face from it. We say it’s okay. We say, “It’s your life. Your rights and your business.” And from a worldly stand point that is true. But are we supposed to be in the world and living as the world? Or, are we supposed to be light in darkness? Salt? What is our purpose? Jesus didn’t point out any one persons sin, neither should we. He didn’t commiserate or negotiate. Neither should we.
Followers of CHRIST have lost our way. We strive to be accepted by society. To blend. To fit in. We look like, talk like, walk like, dress like, drive like, parent like, and live like the world.
At some point we have to stop, draw a line in the sand and dare the world to cross it.
