I work with someone who says she is a Christ follower. She really pulled the wool over our eyes and so we hired her. At first, she seemed the picture of Christianity, nice, team player (or so I thought) and just an all around good person. For the first week or two, this picture of niceness continued. But then, it was like a doctor Jeckyl Mr. Hyde thing, just a complete 360 degree turnaround. No more the picture of niceness, noooooo. She is now somebody I do not recgonize. She talks the talk of Christ, but is far from it. I really can't get into all the details, but after she stabbed me in the back to get what she wanted, it has gone downhill from there for us. I have tried to talk to her, mostly about our faith and God. She pretends to hear, but it all truth, I think it's all nothing but talk for her. Not walk or at least I don't see it...and I have really tried hard to see it. She challenges me on almost everything I have to tell her and it typically will end in a "one up" type thing. Not to mention, she goes behind my back and does whatever she wants to do. She doesn't want to hear anything I have to say to her and so I have literally stopped talking to her. I have prayed about this as I have prayed for her. And you know God showed me that there was something amiss at work and He showed me it was her. She does little things to get me to say something bad or get me riled up or she will say something so I have to say something back to her and she does this out of spite. Not love. So I prayed more and just put it in God's hands.
I know that there are others out there who are facing the same and I just want to ask: How are you handling this type of situation? For me to almost just ignore her, I feel like such a self righteous hypocrit, even though I love her. Now don't get me wrong here, I do speak to her, but it's just an answer to her question if she asks one, nothing more.
Am I wrong for not wanting to have anything to do with this person? Please pray for me and for my workplace as this is just so difficult. For all involved.

This woman seems to be completely in denial and I also believe she is jealous of your kindness. Don't let her tempt you, you are strong with god in you!! Thank yourself for trying to help her but remover you can't make someone listen. I've been through this many times trying to tell someone something important, it's so friustratig when they don't listen. But let god give you the patience to be able to handle her around you. But if you can keep your distance, and pray for her she needs some help from god. Just don't let her get to you, you're better than that and are too sweet to feed into that negativity.
