< STRONG No. We are not to judge. (Biblical)
Mat 7:1 Don't condemn others, and God won't condemn you.
Mat 7:2 God will be as hard on you as you are on others! He will treat you exactly as you treat them. (CEV)
However, we are not supposed to commend the sin. It is clear that Jesus is against sin, but not the sinner.
>> But Paul said to not associate with such sinners.
< STRONG Sort of, but not with the intention to judge or insult.
There are Christians who use "you'll go to hell" as an insult or defense. This is judging. We are not supposed to do this, but instead let the homosexuals know that their actions are ill-regarded in the Bible, just as other actions are. It is not good to be mean and nasty with them and say "you'll go to hell." We don't say that to a person who steals or lies, so likewise with homosexuals.
