I think that if Christians want to show love and acceptance to people they need to have boundaries. The point being...if love for them equals no boundaries, they will come to a point where they cannot love anymore - because you cannot live life without boundaries...if you live life without boundaries, your life will not be your own.

I think I have seen people turned away from the church because people couldn't "accept" them anymore because they could not say no to their demands. They used dejection (out of fed-up-ness) rather than saying no.

I don't think this is the way to go. We must love and accept the person - help them to see we will always love them - though we may not be able to pander to their every whim or do all they would have us do for them.

There is a way, in love - but we must understand what love is!
