I am with you that we can't be judging people outside of the church according to Paul himself.It is their choice to make. I cannot force them to choose, just as God doesn't force us to choose Him. It is also not our place to judge them.
"12 For what have I to do with judging those outside? Is it not those who are inside that you are to judge? 13 God will judge those outside. “Drive out the wicked person from among you.” 1 Corinthians 5:12-13 NRSV
I am hardly in the liberal camp, I am a moderate.
And I haven't been paying a
enough attention to what's going on, so I won't make any judgments towards you. Just wouldn't be fair.
But I will say that we need to be on the side and standing up for what is moral and good to the Lord, for the same reason we cannot be unequally yoked, "What harmony is there between Christ and Belial?"
So our decisions should also be directed towards what the Lord says is good and Psalm 1 ourselves away from what is unclean.
