Narcissistic Abuse and Gaslighting in Family Structure and Siblings
Narcissism is growing in our world today because of the teaching for the past 50 years of "self-esteem" in all the schools and in the churches. The culture has trained the children to love themselves above everyone else.
My entire family was narcissistic and thought they were wonderful people, even though I was the scapegoat because I didn't like the way they were acting. I never figured out why they liked these rude attitudes even though they attended church every week. They were pretenders in the church looking good to those in those gatherings but at home they are devils. My parents were both narcissistic and taught my brothers to treat me disrespectfully.
Matthew 7:21-23 "21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’
23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’"
2 Timothy 3:1-5 "3 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, 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 people as these."
The word "difficult" here in the first sentence it actually means in the original language "ragingly insane." And, God said to "avoid such people." Our family is not the bio family we were born to, our family as a Christian are those who love Christ.
