A) Looking at the list given by the apostle, it manifests that every one of these is currently in play. Lovers of self are not about homosexuality. That is a separate sin. This is the sin of self, being in the place of God. Think Garden of Eden. Disobedient, unthankful, unholy, unloving, and unforgiving. We are, in and out of the church, masters of these things.

B) Here is a brilliant piece of advice. People that live this way are not the people we should be hanging out with. But Dave, what if they are family? You can see them, love them, care for them, and pray for them. But we cannot allow them to influence us…  even…for the sake of family peace and a nice wedding or a peaceful Thanksgiving.
