[QUOTE="ShaulHaTarsi, post: 69981281, member: 388955"] I think this is probably up to personal preference more than anything. Is faith really the only thing dividing him from his in-laws? It hasn't been explained what kind of "sinners" they may actually be. What is it that they do? are they guilty of sexual immorality? perhaps he doesn't actually feel comfortable doing that. Are they watching movies he disapproves of? There's a huge spectrum of things which someone can call [I]Sin[/I]. There may be valid reasons for him wanting to hang out with them; there may not be. I certainly do thing he should be more direct about which "Sins" he is talking about, and feels the need to minister about. If he truly wishes to minister he should keep in mind 1 Corinthians 9:20 - and that he may minister by witness. To be quite frank, being obstinate in wishing to associate with normal simple people is not ministry. [/QUOTE]
