What a sad indictment of the people of Israel, and how grieved the heart of God must have been when the Lord made this plaintive complaint through His servant, Hosea, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” The children of Israel had the Law, the prophets, the promises of God, and the certainty of a coming Messiah Who would save them from their sin.

But they did not pay heed to His warnings.. and God’s people were destroyed, for lack of knowledge.

They rebelled against the One Who brought them out of the land of Egypt. They broke the covenant which they made with the Lord, their Creator, in the early years of their theocracy.

And because they rejected the Lord their God, His sad response was, “I also will reject you from being My priest. and since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.” How tragic and how shockingly sad.

Picture rebelling against the One Who redeemed them, adopted them, made a conditional covenant with them, and pleaded with them for many long centuries and through many prophets of God, to turn away from their mutinous apostasy.

They had run into the arms of God’s enemies and sought sustenance from them, instead of standing on the Rock of their salvation, trusting in His bottomless provision, drinking from the still pools that freely flowed from His never-failing promises, or hiding in the secure shelter of His love – which is under the shadow of His protective wings.

BUT God, in His grace, has not finished with His people despite their terrible apostasy, continuous rebellion, and the rejection of their Messiah. He has promised to reinstate them and gather them together in His arms as a shepherd gathers His little lamb, or a Father – the son that he loves.

Indeed, we have been called and chosen to be a kingdom of priests and to act as Christ’s representatives on earth, during this present Church administration. Nevertheless, the warning that was given to Israel needs to be heeded by Christians today, for many are being led astray by a false gospel which is taught by deceptive teachers, about another Jesus.

May we never, ever reject the knowledge of truth, and the wisdom that we have received from above. May we develop a teachable spirit, and desire the pure milk and meat of the Word, which is able to make us strong in the Lord – so that we may be a worthy witness to His goodness and grace.

To overthrow the works of the enemy in our lives, we need to understand how his evil kingdom works and learn how to discern the enemy’s deception in our lives and in the world. The Bible says we need to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

Do NIPS/IPSS/NISS have the same likelihood of getting to the ‘hatred’. 3.

Are certain combinations more explosive than others. Thank you so much for your time, sir.

Loading.. narcsurvivor030414 says: I have been battling this on and off especially when I found out the Narcissist had cancer.

I felt that he became even worse when he had cancer. He was positive and had a different demeanor in front of people about it.

I was subjected to more silent treatments, insults and triangulation. It almost felt like he blamed me for his cancer.

It is your fault. It was always in a joking way.

Why would the narcissist act this way with me when I have been checking in on him constantly to see how he is. How does battling cancer affect the narcissist.

HG Tudor says: Your compassion for him is expected because of his sense of entitlement, but because of his absence of emotional empathy and an absence of accountability, you are to receive no thanks for it. Battling cancer provides something for the narcissist to use as a means to control other people through Provocation, Insult, Triangulation, Pity Play and Use of Illness.

DrHouse says: Hg, what was sickest you have seen a narc pull to gain pity. Also how does another narc reacts when he sees you.

HG Tudor says: What do you mean by sickest. They usually bow.

Tired says: Certainly I have moments of anger , but I don’t think I hate you. You will never hear me screaming like a banshee, I however have heard you screaming like one on more occasions than I care to count.

That’s it , just the truth, a word you’re not familiar with. You never see me glaring at you with hateful eyes.

You feel a shift in me , but you don’t know why. I realise now the importance of the element of surprise, and boy are you in for a shock.

It was all your doing. I will not take to driving past wherever it is you wind up , that’s your modus operandi , not mine.

What’s the point. with the plethora of secret email accounts and fake profiles you have, one has to assume whatever you post is all a lie anyway.

I used to love having you home and dreaded when you’d have to be away for business. The past few years the opposite is true.

When I am apart from you for a few hours surrounded by family and friends who love me , I feel like myself again. I know it would kill you with envy and loathing to know all of that, but I won’t tell you.

You’ll see me shine, from a distance. You asked me once many years ago if I loved you with my whole heart, I told you, “ No”.

You asked me “ why.

Smart move on my part. I always felt something was off about you.

We reap what we sow in this world, and your future isn’t looking very promising for you. Mine is looking up as each day passes.

Not even post escape. I must have been a real letdown for him in that respect because I can see now that he loved, absolutely thrived on, negative fuel.

I reckon I avoided the worst, for myself, this way, because all the hurt etc simply built up in me, and I was an emotional wreck by the end of that ‘relationship’. Loading..
