I say absolutely. Where else will they find truth other than being in the House of God with God's children? I think if a homosexual individual tried to join a church, and was refused simply because of their debaucherous lifestyle, it'd really show a negative characteristic of a body of believers. In reality, sin is sin. I'm sure there are people in our congregation that we said hello to this morning that are in bondage to gambling, pornography, lying, etc. If we turn away the people that need to be convicted most, that need fellowship most, that need JESUS most, what in the world is our purpose?

Jamie, i agree with you compleatly, but i would like to play devils advocate so you can see the tension in my heart on this subject. Read 1 Corinthians 5, and think about what implications that has. We need to accept and love all people, but at the same time we are not to say that sin is ok...
