So this happened.
That's 24-year-old OnlyFans porn model, Lily Phillips, who is most famous for having sex with 1,113 men in half a day.
Phillips told Newsweek.
'I'm really looking forward to strengthening and growing my relationship with God and opening up conversations about how OnlyFans girls are multifaceted,' she said. 'I hate that we are pigeonholed as 2D sex dolls, it can be really dehumanizing. … There might be Christians who disagree with my 'lifestyle,' but I just want to rebuild my relationship with God, and I think we should be welcoming all conversations and opportunities for people to explore religion in a way that's right for them.'
Phillips says she was baptized as a baby, but had -- and you won't believe this -- deviated from religion, so she wanted to do it over.
There is no magic in being dunked in water, however. That act is symbolic of baptism of the heart, which is what God wants from us.
Jesus did not condemn the prostitute in Luke 7, the five-time divorcee who was living with her boyfriend in John 4, or the adulteress in John 8, but He never left them in their sin.
Instead, he specifically called them to leave their life of sin, or made note of their saving faith that had changed their hearts and behaviors, or told them to drink the living water that only He - not sex, relationships, or attention - can provide.
Being baptized in Jesus means you have crucified your sin and have chosen to follow God instead of your own desires.
'What should we say then? Should we continue in sin so that grace may multiply? Absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Or are you unaware that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?' - Romans 6:1-3
Phillips hasn't shown any awareness of this.
Me to the pastor who baptized her without making sure she understands what she's believing in:
From Us Weekly:
Phillips, meanwhile, 'can understand people maybe not thinking' that she's a 'good Christian.'
😂
'That's totally fine," Phillips said. 'That's their opinion. I'm definitely not claiming to be a traditional Christian at all. Obviously, I'm not against gay marriage. I am also pro-choice. So I definitely don't have, necessarily, traditional values. But that doesn't mean to say that I can't be Christian. I would just hope that the Christian community welcomes me, because I guess everyone's relationship with God is bespoke to them.'
Actually, Christians are called to judge those who claim to be inside the Church, and God is not a "my truth" but "THE Truth." You don't get to define your own values. You submit to His.
Still, as Jesus told the Pharisee Simon all those years ago, those who have been forgiven more love more.
I pray Phillips feels the weight of that truth every day of her "career" now that she is claiming to follow God.
As Hebrews 10 says, the stakes are high:
