As it should be. BUT, I'm willing to bet you don't accept them for membership and have them become part of the Church's family if they show no evidence of remorse, conviction, confession, and repentance, do you?
Nope. In order to join the church, one must profess genuine faith in Christ, which of course involves all of those things. But, to liberals who point at these conditions and wail that we're therefore not truly welcoming them, I'll point out that we don't pick and choose sins in this regard. For example, we would not accept someone into membership who we believed to be engaged in a homosexual relationship without remorse or repentance; nor would we accept someone into membership who we knew to be living in a heterosexual adulterous relationship without remorse or acceptance.
That's where the lies and misperceptions so often kick in. Contrary to what the left would have everyone believe, we don't go to church every Sunday and rail against homosexuality. It does come up, as all relevant issues do, but it's one of a countless variety of sins against God that we expose and pray about and counsel about.
