There is a difference between a lack of tolerance and teaching about sin. True Christians know that you tolerate everyone, but sin is sin.

There is no difference between teaching about some of the "sins" that many "Christians" consider to be "sins" (based on their interpretation of Scripture) and being intolerant. And notice I said "to dos" and "not to dos," which is not exclusive to "sin."

"True Christian."
