Signs of Emotional Immaturity

Some signs of emotional immaturity in the narcissist are evident in these last days!

Those who depend on their own mindset to carry them through life lack empathy, overreacting to minor things resulting in chaos while blaming others.

These people have a need for immediate gratification and fail to plan ahead, they are impulsive in their actions and expect others to follow them.

The narcissists are full of self-centeredness, meeting their own needs while ignoring the needs of others, they just don't care about what is happening to others. They only help people when it benefits themselves and can be seen by others.

Narcissists often ask how something affects them without asking how something affects others.

There is much hostility in the heart of a contentious person drought with narcissism. They are quick to become angry, whether covert or overt while claiming they are not angry.

The 2 Timothy 3 types treat those who disagree with them as though they are bad or foolish. They refuse to validate anyone who corrects to help, they do not see it as help but as a personal attack.

The 2 Timothy 3 types lack agreeableness and are contention about things that are not important. They are fraught with jealousy when the attention is on others.

There is constant deception occurring in personal interactions, much manipulation, and lying to impress others. Everything that is done is to elevate self and dominate others.

The 2 Timothy 3 types are unable to understand the needs of others, are very shallow and will not engage in discussions of depth and importance unless they are the center of attention, then appearing intelligent is more important than truth.

They have an inability to set boundaries, and failure to take action because of co-dependence. They are deeply dependent on others for their validation. They become angry when others do not support decisions that seem unwise.

They do not grow because they think they already know everything and no one can instruct them or correct them. They have figured everything out, they know everything and have every ability. And, when they are wrong they will never admit it which is the reason they cannot grow wiser.

These people believe they have everything figured out and no one has anything to offer them, there's no room for personal development.

These attributes of the narcissist are the reason we see older people who still act like they did when they were in their twenties. They never challenged themselves to grow in holiness and wisdom causing a lifelong regression and a permanent state of immaturity.

Proverbs 8:5-21 May this passage encourage those who love the things of God!!!!

Narcissists are Controlled by Devils

Narcissists can never take accountability for their actions. They do not love anyone, and this foolishness is growing in these last days.

2 Timothy 3:1-5

Difficult Times Will Come

"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."

2 Timothy 4:2-4

"2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction.

3 For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. 4 So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths."

Acts 20:29-30

"I know that after my departure, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. / Even from your own number, men will rise up and distort the truth to draw away disciples after them."

We are living in the last days that are literally "ragingly insane", irrational thinking is common and rampant now. Christians are being accused of what the narcissists are doing and we are not. Just like the devil going before God and accusing the brethren who have been forgiven and are changed.

The narcissist hates our progress in wisdom and holiness, even if in the smallest way, it is intimidating to them when others progress in wisdom and holiness.

And, worse yet these angry narcissistic people are in the church. The 2 Timothy 3 passage is a description of the apostate church, God tells us they have a form of religion but deny Christ while claiming to be a Christian. They deny Christ by ignoring His principles and making up their own.

James 3:13-15 "13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good conduct, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14 But if you harbor bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast in it or deny the truth. 15 Such wisdom does not come from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic."

Do not fear any of this, God said it would be this way and that we would have the strength in Christ to pass through this very difficult time with joy and peace as long as we keep our focus on Christ.
