Look what happens to the sinner in 1 Corinthians chapter 5 (specifically verse 5).

So what would you say to people who label themselves as Christians who do not believe that those things are sins, and don't need to be dealt with as such?
And while it may be impossible to avoid sinful things completely, isn't it possible, and even "strongly recommended" to make a conscious effort to avoid situations that meet the sinful criteria?
And just to prove that I don't pretend to have the answers, I'll tell you that I read 1 Cor 5:5 in several different translations, and I have
no idea what it means.
