It is our place to preach the whole counsel of God's Word to them.
Again, you are confusing the concept of inviting the lost to a church building for an event where they will hear the gospel with the idea of welcoming the unrepentent lost sinner into membership in the church (meaning membership in the body of Christ). Are you actually arguing for the idea that being a member of "XYZ Church" equates with salvation?
No here is saying that anyone has to "become sin free" before they are allowed to be members of the body of Christ--the church. We are saying that in order to be a member of the body of Christ--the church, one must be born again, meaning confessed and repented of one's sins and asked Jesus to be one's Lord and Savior.

Just knocking this one back up to the top so that brother LeBuick can see that we are still waiting on him to provide clear quotes and links to posts that prove BB posters have advocated the things he said, or retract his statements.

The term today has different meanings in different countries. In the United States, left-wing is often used as a synonym for the Democratic Party, which is more socially liberal than the Republican Party.
It seems that you posted the part you liked and neglected to post the truth. -

If I distorted the Word then I apologize but I think Christ was clear how he wanted us to co-exist with the world. -
Now I could say to you all the words that have been said to me many times, search yourself. However, I'll let that go. -
How many times does the Bible speak about turning the other cheek vs. how many times it talks about hell?
Exactly what verse is the one that tells us to love the sinner while hating the sin? -
Your game talking about prove it is absurd and I won't play that game. As many times as I have been accused of supporting the slaughter of unborn children, trust me, I've seen the scare tactic on more than one occasion.
As for not allowing sinners in the physical brick and mortar we call the Church, there are some here, I think Rev Mitchell may be one, who have specifically said they will not allow sinners in their Church. I will look for one of the post but this game of prove it is just that, a game. -
For God so loved the world... For God so loved the sinner, that he sent his Son to die for their sins. God hates our sins but he loves us the sinner. That is the example we should go forward with. -
