Think Christian has a post about a business owner that chose not to provide his services to a gay couple. What would you do in that situation? I don't think it was a good idea. I think sometimes we might get confused as to the situations in which we should stand by convictions (a minister who doesn't conduct a wedding ceremony for a gay couple avoids hypocrisy) compared to other situations where we should show Christ's love through our service to the "outsiders."
For example, would you give clothing or food to a cold and hungry drug addict or alcoholic? This example can be stretched to other areas of sin as well, but when it comes down to it, Christians shouldn't be the ones handing out "punishment" (lack of love and service) to "sinners". If that were the case, each of us would deserve punishment from each other all the time.
