Their Flaws are their Demons

Narcissists are not just human personalities with flaws, they are demonically influenced and often controlled by demons.

2 Timothy 3:1-5 explains the traits of the end times people. They will be so vicious that they will and are now elevating self love and arrogance as a positive trait rather than something to repent over.

2 Timothy 3:1-5
"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."

Many families are being influenced by the demons in their minds. This is the way the devil operated in the garden of Eden when he deceived Eve into partaking of the fruit that would be her downfall. The fruit that would cause her to lose everything. By everything I mean not only a beautiful and comfortable place to live but also her relationship with God and with her husband.

When the culture begins to defend homosexuality, trans-gender and other deviant behaviors, we know that this is the work of devils who are influencing unregenerate minds.

The people who promote and indulge in these deviant behaviors think they are having their own thoughts, but they are not! The devils are convincing people of things that are not only irrational but very destructive toward those who obey them and those in their own families.

The devil was able to destroy families through the acceptance of divorce and remarriage, through abortion, through the legalization of drugs that were once considered very dangerous are now being legalized. The devil has destroyed families and the entire culture through the teaching of self esteem.

If the devil can get people to believe good about bad things, then he has managed to turn many against God and against God's people. The most diabolical about the devil's tactics are to cause everyone to fight with one another over silly and petty, even irrational things.

One of the tactics of the devil is to divert attention away from truth in the church through the extraction of scripture from its context. Many people in the church will fight to defend that which is not truth because it justifies their desires of life.

The desire to fit into popular opinions of famous people, the desire to be accepted and elevated in the eyes of family members often motivates superficial believers to endorse sin and acts of rebellion. The thought of being rejected by family drives the superficial Christian to adopt the ways of ungodly pretenders within the church.

1 John 2:15-17
"Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever."

When we love God above everything and everyone else we will be rejected by those who love the world, even those in the church.

Ephesians 5:11
"Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them."

Titus 2:11-12
"For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,"
