• Porn performer Lily Phillips has undergone rebaptism, sharing her decision online and receiving both encouragement and criticism from Christians.
• Phillips openly maintains her career in the adult entertainment industry, despite proclaiming renewed faith and holding beliefs contrary to biblical standards.
• Christian commentators and ministry leaders have emphasized discernment, calling for prayer and caution while upholding God’s grace for anyone seeking Him.

The recent baptism of Lily Phillips has ignited conversation within Christian communities regarding repentance, public witness, and genuine faith.

Phillips defended her choices, stating her walk with God is “personal, ongoing, and rooted in grace, not in public approval or moral perfection.”

While Phillips maintains nontraditional beliefs and lifestyles, she claimed her faith journey is sincere and asks for understanding from fellow believers.

Some Christian leaders and commentators, such as Jon Root, remain skeptical of her profession of faith due to the persistent nature of her career and theology.

“Currently, I don’t see the fruit of saving faith in Jesus Christ,” Root stated, highlighting concerns over the evidence of spiritual transformation.

Former adult performer and Christian leader Joshua Broome encouraged prayer for Phillips, emphasizing that only God knows the heart and is able to work through anyone’s story.

“God is not limited by imperfect people, unclear motives or messy beginnings,” Broome affirmed, reminding believers that divine grace can reach anyone in any circumstance.

• White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized Democratic officials for stirring hostility against federal law enforcement, particularly Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
• President Trump warned he may invoke the Insurrection Act as unrest and attacks against ICE escalate.
• Some Democratic governors and mayors stand accused of preventing police cooperation with federal immigration authorities.

During a recent White House briefing, Karoline Leavitt spotlighted vandalism targeting ICE vehicles in Minnesota and decried the inflammatory conduct of certain Democratic leaders. She addressed mounting unrest, stating that President Trump still regards the Insurrection Act as a tool to restore order and protect federal officers.

“I think the president’s Truth Social post spoke very loud and clear to Democrats across this country—elected officials who are using their platforms to encourage violence against federal law enforcement officers,” Leavitt emphasized.

Leavitt drew attention to how left-wing agitators obstruct lawful operations and condemned Democrat leaders for withholding support from law enforcement. She cited examples of effective cooperation in states like Florida, crediting God-fearing leadership for the peace maintained there.

Footage from recent Minneapolis unrest showed anti-ICE demonstrators attacking vehicles and federal property while hurling hateful messages at officers, which Leavitt described as a direct result of toxic rhetoric from progressive politicians.

“They are simply trying to enforce the law,” Leavitt said. “And the Democrat Party has demeaned these individuals. They even refer to them as Nazis and as the Gestapo, and that is absolutely leading to the violence we’re seeing in the street.”

She argued that people are emboldened by leaders who make them believe such actions are justified. Leavitt also confronted media figures who mischaracterize ICE, urging them to report truthfully on the harm caused by illegal immigration to American citizens.

“The brave men and women of ICE are doing everything in their power to remove those heinous individuals and make our communities safer,” she concluded, highlighting the calling to defend the innocent and uphold law and order.

Stand with those defending our nation’s laws and pray for wisdom for all our leaders, that America may remain strong, just, and faithful.
