I can't speak to her without having a panic attack. Literally, just thinking about talking to her is causing me to panic right now. I have talked to her many times though. I tried giving her good Christian advice, I tried encouraging her so that way she feels good about herself, I even offered to find her a new friend. She gets so bitter and mean and makes me feel like I'm a failure. She accuses me of not being a true Christian if I don't hang out with her or do exactly what she asks me to do. She doesn't even ask, she demands. And if I don't do it, she gets very angry. God is love, she is not love. I thought after she got saved, I would become friends with her again. I thought she had changed, but she was the exact same. Once I realized she was still obsessive and demanding, I let her know that I wasn't going to be treated this way and that I needed a break. She didn't care. She didn't even care that my mother passed away. She spread lies about me and told everyone that I'm crazy. She gave my phone number out to strangers. I've gotten threatening phone calls because of that too. She even bullied me online. This was after she got saved too. She came to church and sat behind me, staring at me almost the entire time. It made my stomach turn. I panicked and everything. She's stopped harassing me at the moment. Mostly because her family stepped in and took control of the situation. I just fear that if I go to church tomorrow, she will be there and I will have a panic attack. Also, I'm afraid she will try to sit with me or follow me around like she did 2 months ago.
Jesus says we are to pray for our enemies and to do good unto them. In this case, I would leave her alone and just pray every day for her and to ask for God's protection. I would have nothing to do with your church anymore, and I would dedicate every waking hour you have to studying the New Testament in prayer with the Lord. Ask for God to help you to understand His Word. If you see something in the Bible you don't like, do not try to change it just because you don't like what it says. Just read it, and believe it. Beware of the many churches out there, and the many articles online that promote that you can sin and still be saved on some level all because one has a belief alone on Jesus.
