As a Christian, you win folks to Christ by making a ‘general calling’ and living a spirit filled life that others would want to join. A ‘specific calling’ is done by God as well administering judgment. Getting in the face of sinners is only an act of a selfish ego. The basic precept of salvation is that we all are sinners and in need of a savior.

Yes, but are you willing to tell them the truth? No you just want to be their buddy. You don’t want confrontation.

The continual message of Jesus and his sinners was REPENT AND TURN TO GOD. If they didn’t like the message, shake the dust and move on. If they like the message, stay a while and disciple.

Any one who ever cared about me and loved me got in my face and told me the truth.

But you present some nice weasel words...............
