Narcissists need to fight, they are always looking for something to pick on or they feel empty inside. They are this way because they must feel superior all the time or they are an empty vessel.
They gain this feeling of superiority by diminishing others even over the smallest matters.
Satan is the father of this mentality and the manipulator using the hearts and minds of those who have not been regenerated by Jesus Christ.
When someone claims to be a Christian but no change has ever occurred in their tactics or mentality there has been no born again experience.
When Christ comes to live in a born again believer He changes everything about the way they think and because of this change in the mind, there is a drastic change in their actions, their response to everything is different.
When we meet people who have been "in church" all their lives but engage in gossip, mocking, bullying and attitudes of superiority we are seeing someone who is playing a role, they are not people who have been changed by Christ, they only attempted to appear good to others while inside they are "white washed tombs" as Christ put it.
Matthew 23:25-33 "25 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.
26 Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean.
27 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean.
28 In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness."
Matthew 23:33
33 “You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?"
Many people attending the apostate gatherings today are of this sort, full of self-worship pretending to love God but having no interest in obeying ALL that He said in His Word.
My experience has been that when the word of God is expressed to bring someone back to obedience it is met with anger and exclusion with the attempt to silence me through shunning. Many of you have experience this but have remained faithful to God's Word anyway, may your strength become full unto death.
2 Timothy 4:3-5
"3 For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance with their own desires,
4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth and will turn aside to myths.
5 But as for you, use self-restraint in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry."
