"I think I am going to try Christianity"

That is what she said. I thought that I was going to crap my pants. In case anyone remembers my coworker Ashley, the one I blogged about who was a pagan. That is what she said to me yesterday. I didn't even bring it up. She just started talking. My heart sank a little when she told me why she was going to "try" Christianity. She said that believes Cynthia Brown and has all of her books. (She is a psychic) Apparently in one of her books she mentions that Jesus did in fact die for everyones sins. (Don't ask me why someone who is involved in the crap that woman is involved in has this in her book) She doesn't say in the book whether he is raised from the dead or not, but Ashley says that anyone who would do that must have a pretty big "sack." (those are her words not mine) I am praying for her, but I know that she is will be hitting a lot of barriers along the way. She told me yesterday that Eve's real name wasn't eve, but Lilith. Lilith wouldn't have sex with Adam laying on her back because she wouldn't show submission to him. In the end she has sex with satan. I asked her what Bible that was in, and she told me she couldn't remember, but she learned it in college and it was in one of the original Bibles. I immediately went to the bathroom to call my dad and ask him where this is in the Bible. My dad laughed and told me that he wasn't sure where she got her information, because that isn't in the Bible. Hebrew Bible or otherwise. When I told Chris he told me that he was almost positive that that particular story was actually in the Koran not the Bible. To me that makes a very big difference. I hope that she finds the answers she is looking for and I hope that she doesn't just "try" Christianity, but in the end she wants to live it and become it. While "Christianity" in and of itself is only a title and a name, the meaning of the word should be something else. It should be a lifestyle. I realize there are people out there who feel that a Christian can live and do whatever they want. When I read the Bible I see something different. I don't want to depend on Greasy Grace. The new testament is a call to Holy living. Jesus said it himself. "Be Holy as I am Holy." I wish that those would have been the Christians that Ashley encountered. Not that any of us are perfect, but to at least have some sort of attempt to be in the world but not of it...
