Jesus has more accomplishments under His belt than pretty much anyone in history but among them is a solid track record of getting promiscuous women to stop being promiscuous. He even saved one from getting stoned to death then told her to go and sin no more.
Suffice it to say that Christ has an "I can fix her" attitude that actually gets results.
But for some reason, there's a complete lack of faith in Him when it comes to modern times. Apparently, when she's for streets, the attitude is that she's beyond saving, and I don't mean from non-Christians. I'm seeing this attitude from Christians themselves.
No totally. Christ talking to that woman at the well was a complete waste of time. His talking to an OnlyFans star just means He never learned. https://t.co/umI0IiPgzX

Last month, I wrote an article that mentioned a former OnlyFans star going by the name Nala Ray. In it, I detail how even the most unrelenting sinners can be saved, and that you'll often find that it's the people who are so far gone that only Christ can save them are the ones who end up coming back thanks to Christ and being some of the best of us.
Ray, was one of those people. She first came to the public's attention after she appeared on the Whatever podcast and displayed what looked like sexual insanity. This was a girl that you'd swear was possessed. Just listening to her talk was exhausting.

But then, one day, in a very low moment, she turned to Christ for help and was rescued. She got baptized and sold a lot of her worldly possessions, and while she's still a very wealthy woman, she's still fresh in her journey and I'm interested in seeing where she goes next in her walk with Christ.
I haven't finished it yet, but she sat down and talked to Michael Knowles in a lengthy interview. It's an interesting look into the mind of a person like her, but from what I've seen so far, she seems very genuine.
America seems split on whether or not Ray is being honest, but I'm not concerned about them. I'm concerned about the split in the Christian community.
To be clear, I'm not drawing a line in the sand and saying that doubters need to stop doubting her story and her honesty about her walk. It's perfectly fine to want some verification before you grant her your belief. What I'm really having a hard time with is the amount of Christians who willingly want to disbelieve this girl and call her out on it without even knowing if she's lying or not first.
I don't see that as being very Christian of Christians.
Let's lay out the possibilities here.
If she's telling the truth, then you acted as a roadblock in her journey with Christ and away from a destructive, disgusting life that brought her nothing but loneliness and despair. You did your part in warding her away from salvation with your disbelief, not just in her, but in the healing and safety she could find in the community that gathers around Him.
Moreover, what message does that send about Christ to her and people like her? If Christians are that nasty, then how does that reflect well on Him?
But let's say she is lying. Her being false costs you a grand total of...nothing. At most, she comes out as a major grifter and you suffer a bout of disappointment and spend some time on a prayer for her. What a tragic loss for you that would be.
Sarcasm aside, the real tragic loss would be the loss of a sister if we Christians pushed her away because we're too ready to dogpile someone for the mere sin of being a sinner. I've got some sour news for you. We're all sinners, that's why He showed up.
And there's nothing you can tell me that will convince me that He isn't showing up for her too. Even if she is drifting, He's still working. Let's help Him, not try to hinder Him.
