Why?

Maybe I misunderstood the intent of your post. You said

You know our scripture, do you think adulters, fornicators, extortioners, effeminates, abusers of themselves with mankind, thieves, covetous, drunkards, revilers, and extortioners, will be accepted by God, and given his kingdom?

To which my reply is, of course! Isn't that who he came to save? Didn't he come for the sick, not the healthy? Didn't he associate with tax collectors, prostitutes, sinners? What about Matthew, Mary Magdalene, the "good thief"? John 3:16 doesn't just apply to "good people", but to everyone, even the most depraved sinner. Who, after all, is more in need of salvation?
