Today I was 'gently' reminded of my 'humble' beginnings and made the mistake of telling others about the philosophies of religion i used to believe before Robb and Vanessa showed up at Ithaca. It took 3years of salvation before i was taught any real doctrine and then another 5years to bring me to the point where i am at today. With the conversation on the Grenz taking place about Gay rights and marriages I have been pondering this question...
How long after the salvation of gay man or woman does a church wait before 'practicing' biblical seperation of a brother or sister living in sin? Obviously i do not think immediately one should be like..."okay, now that your saved you must do..." but how long does one wait...
Even when Jesus openly forgave sinners he often said "Go and sin no more" so how long does a church wait ... And a bigger question for Vanessa and Robb if he ever reads this...
Where will Vintage stand on an issue like 'seperation'?

I left a pretty good thing about wife battering at the Grenz in reponse to your question. I was going to try and paste it here but there is no "paste" button in the pop up window.
((hugs)) and love.
