"If Jesus were the pastor of City Church, what would he say to the people who are asking if they can belong?" the pastor asks. "As we consider the life of Christ, his example of love, his call to embrace the outsider and cast down, and his patience with those earnestly seeking him, what is a Christ-like response?"

It is always what's left out of Jesus Christ's words and deeds which make people stumble into evil. Jesus accepted REPENTANT sinners and outcasts. Sinners who knew He could heal them and make them new creatures. Jesus did NOT accept sinners who loved their sin and lust.

A point missed by many who would read with human emotion.
