The actions and words of the narcissist do not match, they live hypocritical lives. The devil is the ultimate narcissist who is driving the minds of many.
1 Peter 5:8
"8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour."
Romans 1 "They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and maliciousness. They are gossips,"
The devil works on the hearts of people who do not know God.
God said this about born-again believers;
John 13:34-35 "…34 A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”
Those who love Christ don't have to pretend love, kindness and empathy, they dwell in this vein every moment of their lives. They do not manipulate or demean others through covert tactics for plausible deniability. Born-again believers love with the love of Christ, its authentic and in their very being without having to think.
No working at acting loving no working at kindness it flows from them like clear water from a pure stream.
1 John 3:14
"We know that we have passed from death to life because we love our brothers. The one who does not love remains in death."
1 John 4:20
"If anyone says, "I love God," but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen."
