How To Do It

Apparently some Methodists are confused about Jesus and the Bible:

Divisions over LGBT people are “the symptom of a theological divide within the denomination,” said Brian Straub [who] is an ordained pastor in the Global Methodist Church. "We all believe that gay people are worthy of Christian love. We don’t agree on how to do that."

I think Jesus already provided the answer. He forgave sin, but He never maintained that those He forgave were NOT sinners. He typically would send them on their way while saying "Go, and sin no more."

The problem with these Methodists (and most people) is they have forgotten why we weren't supposed to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and the consequences of doing so.
