Beware of the Tricks of the Narcissists

Our president is under attack continually, he has a thick skin for a reason.

The only thing I can figure out is that our president has learned not to take too seriously threats against him, he has had many but the news does not report it.

Also, we do not know whether or not he is part of the whole scheme, this is just my thinking based on what I know about narcissists. They will be "on the side of the people" to gain an advantage but will turn on them when they are no longer useful.

Jude 1:16 "16 These men are discontented grumblers, following after their own lusts; their mouths spew arrogance; they flatter others for their own advantage."

Trump's entire life has been one of gaining wealth by using threats and flattery, he is still doing this. We know Trump is not a Christian because before the election he was asked if he had repented from his sins and his answer was, "I've lived a good life, I don't think I have anything to be sorry for."

Trump had two wives each of which he cheated on, divorced, and remarried the affairs. Now he is on the third wife and yet he doesn't see anything wrong in his life. Not to mention all the other wheeling and dealing he did over the years that were perhaps legal but unethical. He makes a show of holding up the Bible but has no clue what is in it except what his liberal and apostate preacher Paula White tells him. She is what he loves, a motivational man-centered prosperity preacher.

The liberals use insults and intimidation to accomplish what they want.

Trump promises the goods and often backs up on them when he has nothing to lose, these are typical tactics of narcissists.

Those who believe Trump is a good guy are basing it merely on his words and a few bones he has thrown his supporters.

He knew there was a block of people out there who were not voting so he set out to court them. He learned their verbiage and what they want and began promising these things to them, even doing some of them.

We can see already he first said we do not need a vaccine and now he is saying we must all be vaccinated.

After the next election, if he wins and I think he will, you will see him back up on many of his promises, they were given to entice the "Evangelical Christians" and conservatives who are not Christians, these groups are fixated on saving America far more than they are on spreading the gospel. They are worldly-minded.

If Trump does not win we can expect the liberals to run completely amuk with all their evil agendas. If Trump wins we can expect greater and deeper choas and rebellion than we are seeing now. You see, the liberals hate Trump because they think he is a nationalist and a Christian, of which I believe he is neither. Either way there is going to be growing turmoil and evil.

We are living in the last days of the world. In this time the lying will be constant and rampant and evil will win out over good.

2 Timothy 3:1-8 "3 But realize this, that in the last days DIFFICULT (meaning ragingly insane) times will come.
2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good,
4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
5 holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these.
6 For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses,
7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith.
9 But they will not make further progress; for their folly will be obvious to all, just as Jannes’s and Jambres’s folly was also."

The Evangelicals today have a "form of religion" but do not obey God. Much of what they say and live are psychological mantras and cliches, not the Bible. In fact, many things they say are against the Bible and yet they will defend them adamantly as though they are the truth.

Many who say they are Christians are easily deceived by words, even shouting "don't judge" while judging constantly people are good when their fruit is not good.

If anyone says "don't judge" then they had better not judge anyone as good either. When someone judges on the basis of words and public kind acts they are foolish.

No one can know the motives of a person who does good but when they do bad we know their heart, a heart that is good cannot do evil. However, a heart that is evil can appear to be good by flaunting their good deeds for others to see.

Matthew 6:1-3 "1“Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.
3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,…"

Often those who make a show of their good deeds or say good things are manipulating people to love them. Those who spend a lifetime working to be noticed and loved by the world are not people who would obey God.

John 15:19 "19 If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. "

Do not be so quick to judge a public figure based on what he says or even what he does publically. The clues are there that are often missed by those who judge superficially.

Galatians 5:22-23 "22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law."

These character qualities are those of Christ, they can be discerned by born again believers. However, they can also be seen as lacking by born again believers. Christ lives in us we can see things that unbelievers cannot see.

1 Corinthians 2:14-16 "…14 The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment. 16“For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.…"

Superficial people will often refuse to listen to those who have seen the clues and have consulted with Christ Who lives in them. Christ in us shows us things, warns us about circumstances and people. He communicates with born again believers when they ask Him to show them truth.
