 You keep talking about sin and repentance, but Jesus hung out with people society thought were bad. He ate with them. He accepted and affirmed who they were. Well, you got one thing right, Jesus did hang out with sinners, but he didn't affirm them in their sin. He called them to repentance, to go in sin no more, to pick up their cross, deny themselves, and follow him. But I thought God was love. That doesn't sound very loving. You've bought into the world's distorted understanding of love. What do you mean? God thinks that love is full approval of every behavior and identity regardless of how harmful it may be. But biblical love is intrinsically connected with truth. To fully love someone, we can't stay silent when someone is heading towards harm. You see, love speaks truth even when the consequences may be hatred from other people. The nice Christians that never speak up disguise their cowardice as kindness. True love is willing to sacrifice being liked and applauded in order to tell the truth. Wait a minute.
