As Christians, we are to adhere to the Bibilcal teachings concerning sin and righteousness. Not to "save" us as that matter was settled when we came to faith in Christ, but to ensure that there is no sin in our lives and to point people to the Cross. Now, that being said, there is a dangerous trend among Christians that we must "tolerate" homosexual marriage, abortion, and so forth, but G-d does not. I was watching a bit of Dr. Michael Yuseff today and he touched on Revelation 2:18-end of chapter. This describes these people perfectly. Jesus commends them on their service and good works, but indicts them for embracing the "Spirit of Jezebel" when allowed the Christians in that time to fall into sexual immorality and eating foods sacrificed to idols. I believe this describes so-called "Liberal" Christians concisely. That being said, if you are a believer and embrace the "social justice" gospel, then you need to repent and turn back to the foundational teachings of the Bible.
