Where in the NT are we told that we have the authority to tell others what they can and cannot do?
If we prohibit gays from marrying in the church, that is what we have authority over.
We can exercise our right as a citizen by voting, running for office, etc. But the church is not part of this world and vice versa.
We have been given one commission, to preach the gospel to the nations, baptizing them into the name of the triune God.

I wouldn't go that far, that is a little extreme. I would say a bad Christian is one who condemns sinners rather than preaching the gospel of salvation. But go ahead, speak out against it. I am of the persuasion that judgement begins with the house of God. I am focusing my attention on speaking out against the evil in the house of God.
