You can't control what she believes, but you can certainly confront her about her actions like handing out needles and condoms. She claims to be a Christian (albeit a "progressive" Christian), but those actions in particular are actually contributing to and subsidizing sinful behavior, and that's not what Jesus wants. I'd love to hear her try to defend that in light of scripture. Was she actually handing out the condoms and needles through her new church, or is this sone other group of activists she fell in with?

This was not with our church. It was with whoever organized the parade. I told her that her celebrating and participating like that is a sin. Her response was these are the same people Jesus hung around with. He was with these kind of people all of the time and that he cared for these people just like she is doing.

with your last comment being said... yes Jesus hung around them, but he preached to them and shared the gospell with then. the Bible says ( i dont remember the exact verse) but if someone is sinning call them out (I think it says 2 times) and if they don't change there ways then you are not supposed to ascotiat with them.
this may be different within a marriage, I'm not sure exactly what the Bible talks about there.

just giving my 2 cents

Will confronting her stop the divorce?? If it serves no practical purpose move on. Close that book and start a new one. Is divorced and alone worse then married and miserable?? G.

Jesus extends his forgiveness to everybody, but in John 8:11, He says:
Quote
Go, and now sin no more.


That's the part your wife doesn't get. Jesus forgives, but then commands us to desist from sinful behavior. He doesn't pass out needles and condoms to subsidize sinners. I'd be curious how she would defend her actions if confronted with that verse.

Truth

I'm more in line with the old testament.In my personal beliefs...
I understand that Christ came to die on the cross for our sins. And yes, I've given my heart to Christ. But my humanness makes me see a lot of things from the old testament that god did not so much vindictively... But because he just got fried with the human experiment.
