Agreed. Everything I need to know about how Jesus would have treated a homosexual is in John 8. The problem with homosexuals is that they don’t accept that they are living a “life of sin.” In other words, they are not willing to serve God, they want a God that suits them.

The problem is that many Christians today are really good at the "love the Sinner" part, but come up short on the the other side of the equation, the "hate the sin". In fact, many churches have become more about "love the sinner and accept the sin" on issues such as homosexuality. Which is a slippery slope indeed, and in the end harms both the Church and the Sinners.

From John 8:11...

“Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”
