If it is, in those words, where is it? What version did you find it in?

unicorn, are you a Christian or a Nazi? That kind of comment is what scares many people away from Christianity.

Good question; I must say it really affected me, because I had clung to that ideology as well, without realizing that it might not be entirely correct. If it weren't so late, I'd look more into it, but I'll have to save that for tomorrow. In the meantime, I've found some interesting sites that you may want to check out, too. I included an online Bible site that lets you search any version...

Many things are not in there. Like the age of accountability. Personal savior. Religion has had to make it up. Because Jesus is grace and church that the apostles started included law. They don't mix! So a much of weird things had to be made up to try and tie it all together.
Paul was different. He was taught after the cross. What Jesus taught before the cross was still the law. He fulfilled the law which means that sin is impossible. He did not include our choice.
He imputed righteousness unto the world just as Adam imputed sin unto the world.

Yes love the person
But you do not have to accepted their sins.
We are all here to make mistakes learn our lessons and learn them well.
We all have Karma to pay back Good and Bad.
And as to what it says in the bible well the wording and interpretation have changed more times the I have had a hot breakfast.
Look for what feels right in your heart and that is what counts at the end of the day.
Love & Blessings

What version? That's the underlying problem with the Bible. Who knows what's really in the Bible? The Bible was written by man, revised, translated, edited & altered. Instead of looking for something in the Bible, my suggestion is to look inside your heart.

It isnt in the Bible in those words exactly, though, it does say many times that God hates sin... and also says that God so loved the World and ALSO says all have sinned... so whats that tell you?
David, was a murderer and an adulterer, God didn't like it and David was punished... but David loved God whole heartedly so God loved David as well.

Hate the sin, but don't hate the sinner, because the sinner can ask forgiveness from God and become clean again.
i don't know about bible.

That is one of the most foolish questions I have ever seen. Genius,, the bible was not written in english. what was translated was the meaning of the ancient text. Sometimes the words do not correspond one for one so they translate the meaning.
PS God still loves you even if you ask stupid questions.

If it's not in those exact words it's implied by jeus' teachings. For example:
The whore who jeus protected from being stoned.
The saying doesn't mean that the person can continue to sin. It means that the person isn't beyond redemption.

Not like that. We are to hate sin and we are to love our neighbor and even our enemy but it does not say love the sinner as if we would love them in there sin.

"Hate the mixed-fibre fabric, love the cut of the pants"
Any gay who catches a Christian wearing a poly-cotton shirt should kick them in the shins for being abominable in the eyes of the Lord.
