Hi...I would like some help to explain paganism to my girlfriend....
Hi, I am new at the Christian Forum.I have like 5 sundays of going with my girlfriend to the local church. She wasn't Christian before we started to attend church, I've always been Christian. She recently accepted Jesus as her Saviour and she has lots questions about Christianity . I was born in a Christian home so I have a lot of Christian values and a solid Christian background, but she has so many questions that sometimes I don't have an immediate answer for her Questions. Sometimes I go to the Bible and look for a correct answer for her questions. Sometimes I do ask my dad for help. But most of the time I do bend my knees and pray for God's guidance. I am so blessed with my girlfriend, God put her in my life in the correct time, because I wasn't attending church but now I want to be an example for her. So now I am going to church with her. But recently I found out that she still have influences from her past. She used to be catholic and also she has influences of Paganism. She used to believe in budah. I just recently found out while talking to her at Pike's market place here in Seattle , WA. She took me to her favorite store and it was a Pagan store. She told me that she got the budah prayers and she likes to practice the burn of incense. I got a chill down in my bones when I entered that store. After we were out of that store I told her that she should get rid of those articles and practices because they don't glorify our GOD. She didn't understand and ask me why is that bad? I tried to explain it to her but for some reason i haven't been challenged before with that kind of questions. I told her that I was going to ask my Dad and come back with an answer. Well my dad got a different shift at work and I can't ask him all these questions that i have. So I was wondering if I can have some help in this forum. I will really appreciate if someone can help me out to explain to her this dilemma. She wants to change her ways and I would like to help her. But as I said before I haven't have this kind of questions before....
I need help!
