That's the next question. :)

Can't get more clearer than below

Paul wrote to warn believers it was possible to start practising these sins and it would lead to eternal death

Galatians 5:19-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

God says that witchcraft is a sin and is one that will keep you out of Heaven.

It just amazes me that professing Christians (as Fuego, via Finney, referred to them) can be so ignorant, deceived, and outright stupid. You absolutely cannot use the tools of the devil while claiming to belong to Christ. So-called Christians either do not read their Bibles anymore or do not believe that the Bible is the authority we are to live by. Either way, Satan is able to deceive people into using his methods while giving them a false security.

Idolatry and witchcraft go hand in hand, don't they ? One can be a Christian witch about as much as one can be a Christian Sai Baba follower. Some concepts are simply contradictions in terms.

It’s a sign of the great falling away that this is even a question.

This is the woman's own testimony : "No, I HAD to have EVERY experience I've had to be the Goddess I AM today... that much is clear."

Which means that she worships herself. I didn't dig enough to come up with any clear statements as to whether she derives magical powers from herself (as a divinity) or from powers outside herself. But it makes her an idolater - per definition and not just "of the heart" - and that excludes faith in Jesus Christ. It's not that she lives in sin, it's the fact that she cannot possibly be a believer.

It's a bit different when a Christian decides to lie about something, decides to keep up the lie instead of to repent of it and then dies while still doing exactly that. It could even be something that doesn't really hurt anyone else but it's still a lie and therefore a sin, a sin which this person harbors on and therefore the person is living in this sin.

Now that the person has died while still harboring on this lie, is the person going to hell in spite of being a believer in Jesus Christ ? I don't think so.

Long ago Rich Wilkerson wrote a book in the same flow, “Carnal Christians (and other words that dont go together)”.

Paul calls them "babes in Christ" in 1 Cor 3 so those words do go together.
