Narcissism is Rampant Among Pastors

These same dynamics are present in narcissistic families, the devil is working on every front in the area of divisiveness. Often the leaders of churches and families when they are abusive are protected for the sake of the "ministry " or "family", the abuse seems irrelevant to the protection of the church. Wicked pastors are protected because change even when it is righteous frightens people. They would rather protect the abusive pastor than protect the victims.

I believe this because I have known many men who were "in the pulpit" were not approachable or would tolerate correction. It is my opinion that these are people who want an easy job and who believe they are so special that they should be allowed to be kings over their subjects. The one man pastor system is not Biblical, and we see why, it puts too much emphasis on the power of one man while fostering godlike treatment of them. It makes the believers look to the pastor rather than to God. I have seen this in extended family, they are gossiping, treating me badly but will never talk to me about what I have supposedly done to deserve it. My only guess is that I address things when they are not Biblical, but in a calm and friendly way, it is taken as "rebellion" by the pastor as well as those who elevate them.
