I'd have to investigate what their positions were. I just know that the bible doesn't back her up. It is true that christians do sin, and they are still christians, but if they continue to do so with no remorse then they probably are not really christians. (Please nobody bring up the "no true scotsman" analogy. Been there, done that.)

Additionally, as far as I know, the witchy stuff in the Bible is Old Testament only, and you acknowledge that and I'm going to assume you are also not wearing mixed fabric clothing, you're zealously removing menstruating women from your church, and you are plowing up your neighbors lawns and gardens if they have planted more than one kind of seed}
The new testament does comment on witchcraft, as well as following the old testament laws, as in the following verses:
Galatians 5:18-20 New Living Translation (NLT)
18 But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of Moses.
19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division,
