Thank you for your comment! The thing...Saintly Mic,<br />Thank you for your comment! The thing I also want people to remember is, that number one - we cannot do anything continually good without the power of the Holy Spirit. In Galatians 5:16-26 it says that the old nature loves to do wrong...and we can't patch it up like patching up an old wine skin to make it work better. It has to become completely new first -- which means a person first has to come to Christ in order to have the power to obtain the new nature. So, first a sinner must come to Christ, or we are just trying to patch up an old wine skin and trying to get the old nature to like doing good. But the bible says we can't make the old nature to like being good. We also cannot save ourselves, if we could then we would have no need of Christ...we MUST come to Him first, obtain a new nature and then His Holy Spirit works in us to produce what is good and eternal. <br /><br />Blessings to you!!

I was a support group leader at a church at one time and had a women in my group was dealing with severe childhood abuse. Her brothers and father, on a regular basis, would rape her...so she grew up hating men. But, like everyone, she had a strong yearning to be close to someone but could not be near men....so, anyway, I won't go any further with that but to say, that of course Jesus would sit and eat with any sinner...including all of us. Thank you, blessings!!<br />Jenny Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04674371927509456080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7085408528166697035.post-30331273226913566552012-12-21T09:52:36.621-08:002012-12-21T09:52:36.621-08:00Good article.

That is why it is important for us as Christians to live our lives reflecting Jesus. Someone asked me if I thought Jesus would sit down with homosexuals. To be honest I never thought of that before, but knew without a doubt, yes He would. So shouldn't we? That doesn't say I endorse their lifestyle, but as a Christian I extend my hand in Jesus Christ's love.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
