In the form of a question...Who does God think He is? How dare He tell me what to do!? I know that God established the Church and all, but how dare God have Ministers preach sermons that identify me as a sinner! We arn't to judge so I guess Ministers are never supposed to preach against sin. Right? WRONG! If God declares something as being sin then, His Ministers and Christians should judge the "thing" as sin and the person who is doing the "thing" as a sinner! This ain't hard theology folks...or is it? Mankind needs to get with the program.

Ministers aren't judging by giving a sermon, they are doing their job and spreading the word of God. If you are a christian it is your place to let someone know if they are doing something that is a sin.

If you question the authority of God to tell you what to do and what not to do, then, the more you should rebel against what your government, the politicians, the lawyers and all those in power tell you that is against the law. But the reality is, you cannot do that and much as you hate it, you have to follow those rules, man-made, God-made, nature made, self-made.
You have to accept that in this world, there is no absolute freedom and that you can do anything and everything that you like whether or not this will bring harm to yourself or to other people/creatures. We are always being limited by one rule or another which are also essential to establishing order and harmony in this world, otherwise there would be chaos and mayhem. So think about it, if God ( and the law) did not say killing is a sin and the killer is a sinner, then there is a possibility that you would not be in yahoo answers right now but six feet underground. And so would I be.

God has clearly given us the guideline's in His Holy books about about goods and sins. Man minister has no authority to convert the good things into sins and sins to good things. I am a Muslim and follower of Quran and clear path about sins and the true part. I do not depend upon any human being except teaching of the holy books.

Christians are not free to judge, that's God's job. We are to be ambassadors for Christ, reflecting His love to a needy world. Try preaching love instead of judgment and see what happens.

And the program is reality, not religion. One must believe that god is real for your ideology to be valid and because I do not believe he's real, then your premise is invalid. If you're saying my making a bad choice is a sin, then I guess it is... but I just try to not make bad choices. And I do so without the threat of damnation. You should try it some time... it's quite freeing. :-)

John 1
The Word Became Flesh
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning.
3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood[a] it.
6There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. 7He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. 8He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. 9The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world.[b]
10He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13children born not of natural descent,[c] nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
14The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only,[d] who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Don't be agry at God, he doesn't think you are a sinner. The church does. God has nothing but love for us all.

If the sinner do not reject his sins, and does not come to Christ. I do not judge a man, but men as such will enter hell!
A man tell me he wants to go to hell, (there are many way they tell me), I will tell him congrats you will make it there!
