Because I don't think many Christians would continue relationships with many "sinners" if they continued to be unresponsive to their evangelizing.
In other words, would you keep a friend who was homosexual, without judging him or her, and without pestering them a million times a day to become a Christian, and let God be the one who would change him or her if God felt it necessary? In my experience, I have not seen that happen. I have seen (many but not all) Christians goad and guilt "sinners" until they convert and if that person is not responsive to their evangelizing, they leave them like dogs on the street.
(I am a Christian by the way and for many years I have seen this pattern, even in myself when I first converted)
No, it has been my experience that some Christians say this when they want to look like they care, but they don't. It is really just a bold faced lie. If I really you meant the "Love the sinner" part, which you don't, I would have a different attitude.
