Jesus didn't mean you should tolerate sin in the church. I know non-Christians like to spout this line off, but there's a lot more to it.
So church is only for non-sinners?
Folks are supposed to be acknowledging their sins and working in their lives to get rid of the sin by admitting guilt, confessing the sin, and vowing to try harder. Someone who is living in an on-going sinful state without any attempt to stop the sin is different and needs to figure out their priorities. You cant live in direct opposition to Christian teaching, pretending you aren't doing anything wrong, but still proclaim what a faithful Christian you are! Yes, plenty of people do that, but it is a problem.
OP, why not discuss with your pastor and see what they recommend?
