What a sad commentary of the state of Christianity. They seem to have abandoned the precept of saving souls. Now all they want is compliance, and are willing to get it by force of the state. Very sad.

The world needs good Christians now more than ever. Christians who know that Christ loved the sinner, while loathing the sin.

Peace of earth, good will toward men.

"Christians who know that Christ loved the sinner,"

Christians who also know that Christ said in Matthew Ch.18 Vv. 15-17

"Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.
"

We're to verse 17 already.
