I'm not a buddy - and that's condescending! I would ask you to re-read what I wrote. He asked people to leave their sins. He didn't try to convince people. He gave them a clear invitation to "follow him" that meant they left where they were - they left their sin behind.
My apologies sir. or maam. no disrespect intended. You may believe he just stuck his head in the bar and said follow me, and that may help you sleep at night, but I dont think that is a serious interp. of what the scripture says. He did not come like the pharisees thought another David to conquer the romans, he was born in a stable. His friends were fisherman, Not the clean cut folks we have pulling into ports around the world today. ( sarcasm) The point is Christ told us to go into this world and make followers. We are to be in this world but not of it. That means Christ didnt engage in sin but constantly engaged sinners. Not with a Bible in hand but most likely a cup of cold water and in some cases maybe a beer.
Tell me, do you think Jesus would have kicked this girl out of a Christian school?
