[@user-sl8wq2ms6c]

Narcissist are trolls and once you find that out they don’t have to wreck your emotions. Now I agree every conversation you have with them you don’t need to feed into but I look at how Jesus handled His trolls the Scribes and the Pharisees in John 8 and each time He told them the truth and let them make of it what they will. In that chapter alone He addressed lies, accusations and told them who their father was- the devil and all of that was done in truth. Now yes, I believe we are not to start any arguments, Jesus never did, but are to speak as the Holy Spirit leads us and how He leads us to speak, not to convince or make anybody do or believe anything but to present the truth and if they don’t want to accept it, then knock the dust off your shoes and keep moving as Jesus said to do.

Yes, others may profess to be Christians (and probably many actually are) but she is the only one I've found who actually addresses it as foundationally being a spiritual issue and she uses many scripture verses to explain her point from the Word of God. Most other sources feel more like self-help with a splash of Christian-ese sprinkled on top (which sometimes feels more like just taking advantage of marketing to a larger Christian audience). But I'd rather take advice from God's Word and she helps me see what God has to say about these issues and then she gives me explanations of how to apply this wisdom (from God) to my life.

After 44 years of my husband’s toxic behavior, I have come to dislike even the sound of his voice. He is a narcissist. In our younger years, he cussed constantly about every small incident. His glasses fell off the desk as he was reaching for them. He regaled the whole house with his profanity. Has always prided himself on never raising a hand to me, feels like a saint in that regard. According to him the fits of instant anger were always due to job pressures, people cutting him off in traffic, failure of equipment to function properly, long list of “ justifications”. None of those were anything but a failure of his self control and respect for anyone within hearing distance. I gave up on having the happy marriage we might have had long ago. Now I am keeping to myself as much as possible. He says, “ I love you” at least 20 times a day. It’s a bargaining tool the narcissist uses.

For all those years, I had the misguided notion I was responsible for making him happy and thought he would be-if I just worked increasingly harder. I also refused to give up because I believed God would change him. And then one morning, I heard God say, “You cannot do what I sent you to do if you stay where you are.” Being completely transparent with you, I admit I still have times I believe I should have tried harder, but there was truly nothing left for me to try. And you’re correct! There’s SO MUCH to learn from our experiences! My relationship with God has grown enormously and I have grown in necessary and beneficial ways as well.

I would also like to add that my mother used to make me feel very "guilty" saying we are the only family we have here. So I never left the Bay Area because I didn't want to leave her alone. That has changed. After a few years of weighing out the Pros & Cons and reaching out to various programs the Silicon Valley has to offer to Seniors and Independent living, example: IHSS (In Home Support Services) My wife of 26 yrs and I bought some rural mountain property (3 acres) I did my in-depth research. We are only 2.5 hrs away from my mother and a 1-hour flight should I need to get to her quickly should I "need" too. I tried to tell my mother we were interested in a property months ago (4 months from today 07-22-24) I tried to show her photos of the property on my laptop so she could see it, thinking she would be happy for us? She wanted NOTHING to do with looking at the photos I was so excited to share. She became upset, so she didn't hear a thing I said. I will admit it was not a good feeling for me. What was "I" thinking? Did I really think she would express any type of happiness and pride knowing we were going to buy a nice property? I never got to explain in detail. Instead I closed my laptop and left with my tail between my legs, but she didn't know it. I didn't show any type of emotion. She would have known how I felt if she would have looked at me, but she didn't. She gave me her back instead. I tried many times to interest her in a safe Senior Independent living situation but it fell on deaf ears. So I continued to do what I set my mind out to do. Contact Movers and make arrangements to move my wife and I to a more peaceful town with a population of 1,000 and the rest is history as of June 04, 2024 We couldn't be happier. I couldn't be happier. Now, when I speak to my mother I keep it short. She has no idea I don't live 8 minutes away anymore. I don't want to tell her yet, not yet. I do keep an eye on things from afar through her doctors and the internet. I make sure she pays her bills with casual gentle reminders. I also pray a lot. She has always been an Independent woman. It's "Her" way or NO way, so be it. As long as she is content and not hurting herself or anyone else. Let me tell you I have not slept better in ALL my life. I have Peace, Peace of Mind, and Tranquility here in this small, slow, rural mountain area on 3 beautiful acres that resemble some of the parks in the Bay Area. I never thought I could leave the same city my mother lived in, but I did because "I" put Me first. "I" did what I thought was best for my wife and I. ......All the glory goes to God for giving me the strength and opportunity to buy this home. *Guilt Free MountainAngel formally Angel from The Bay

And he said “yeah probably because you poisoned her mind against me.” I didn’t remember right away why but later I remembered that she was in the house with him alone. She said something like “I don’t want to be your daughter.” It was some argument about discipline or her chores. And he yelled at her saying “I don’t want to be your dad!” So she ran out to the barn and went up to the loft and fell asleep crying. She was 12. Of course he blamed me in his mind.

[@barbarajansen4912]

I really appreciate this in your biblical perspective. I am also a Christian and can relate to everything you are saying. Information from a Christian perspective on this subject has been scarce. Thank you for making it available to me.

[@sharonf3321]

Tried to set a boundary with the narc and he snarled "I wish I had a decent person to deal with". Before, that would have hurt & triggered me, but now I can tell myself "I know I am a decent petson" and it doesn't really bother me.

[@lindac2554]

Absolutely He's rude and wrong

[@reddawn8230]

Most powerful thing was to realize that the narc doesn’t define me. I know who I am in Christ, and the Lord knows that I’m a decent person who tries to do what is right. It’s God’s approval I seek. I finally told narc husband, “I’m not arguing with you. I will remain respectful and civil. You alone get to decide how you will behave. I don’t need your approval. If you want to argue, you must argue alone.” Married 27 years now.

This is M's wife...you have met your "twin". 27 years next month. In spite of him, I can stay because of, and only because of, my relationship with Jesus Christ. Our relationship stays OK. The children thru great grandchildren look up to us as an example of how to overcome obstacles. (pointing to Him) It works as long as I draw strength & discernment from Him when "situations" arise - & am learning how to use the responses of this channel. Thank you! Kris

[@aimee30425]

I so agree with Kris. I had my fair share encounters with narcissists in the church/ life groups. Most of them, God revealed to me and confirmed had Jezebel spirit and were Jezebel ambassadors, not God's. They have various strongholds e.g. pride and therefore the Jezebel gets attached to them to make them more powerful in their weaknesses.They have free will though and don't have to listen to Jezebel but often they do. Recently I was attacked with an abusive behavior from a narcissistic- jezebelic woman when I was asking for a prayer, she physically shook me and accused me of being inconsiderate and prolonging things. When I told her she hurt me and asked her to be gentle, she came with more accusations and twisted and manipulated what I said to her. I meant to respond as it really upset me but asked Jesus first what to do and He said ' don't add insult to yourself by confronting someone who refuse to take responsibility'. So yes, even though I was upset with these twisted and false accusations I didn't dare to disobey Jesus. He said that we should be like Him ' learn from me because I am gentle and humble at heart' Matt 11:29. It's clear that narcissists/ Jezebel led people are not, the ones you I encountered anyway (7 people). Also look for the fruits of the Spirit. These peoples often have none.

This is so amazing. The only issue is when you say you're going to leave, and they follow you and get in your face even more when you do...my husband would block the door.

[@SoundsBogus]

@@ileanad6183 That's scary! It's happened to be a few times.

[@CC-qf6zz]

Agree! The answers in this video are pretty textbook but there's a lot more people out there that are dealing with this sort of out of control abuse they won't stop. It would be very nice to be able to say if you keep talking to me that way I'm going to leave the room, they Just follow you and yell at you and give you no peace whatsoever

[@debmarlowe1204]

When I was a teen my mom would come open my bedroom door and start provoking and accusing. At first I tried to defend myself. That did not work and I would become distraught after she closed the door but I couldn’t recall what exactly she had dumped on me. My friend suggested I just use my shorthand to take what she said down in writing. I was shocked upon transcribing because it was all total BS. What an eye opener! I was internalizing all the negative feelings and none of it made any sense.

[@olayinkasanni8191]

Silence works! So we can preserve our Peace that the narcissist effort is trying to disturb! Thanks. ❤🎉❤

[@brensue56]

My husband's classic go to is "why are you causing problems?" and he hops around the room like a spoiled teenager ranting. It's only been recently that I've been enlightened that he just might be a narcissist. I've seen no growth, no change, no understanding, no empathy. I used to think it was me and he likes that it's right on it. He knows me very well. He's seen all my vulnerabilities in the useless against me. Kind of just like Satan. He has trained me to keep my mouth shut. We've been married 40 years.

[@blueskiesforever114]

Thank u Kris! And God bless you. ✝️💕 My Christian Narcissistic family ( I’m the scapegoat) has turned on me with an evil vengeance to destroy my name, spreading lies .. it has devastated me…. and I know who exactly behind it. It’s a spiritual warfare…. As my mother & sister are infected by the Jezabel spirit. And want me unalived. The hate, and persecution is off the charts. Please pray Jesus will uphold me, and justice will be done according to His will. Thank u again. 🙏✝️💕

[@terrijohnson6549]

The biblical solution is hopeful, essential and applicable. Thank you.

[@PillowYell4747]

So true and very exhausting! If you try to address it in any way you will be sorry. Thank you for the insight and confirmation!

[@balto8111]

Metahumor is also a good weapon to keep them in check, but they'll still bounce back as their penny never drops.

[@monicamiles4544]

Doing the work healing from narcissistic abuse. I don't argue. I state facts. I show no emotion to them. He would twist my words around. Blame me for everything. No accountability. Shift blaming. Gaslighting me. I turned tables around by agreeing to him on his Gaslighting me saying that I am overreacting, projecting his traits onto me. Ha that totally confused him.

[@MarthaBenefield]

For 35yrs. I was doing this.Was I just stupid. (No) I was just un aware totally in the dark that this kind of person or persons existed.Now I know. I don't play in his or thers ( playground ). It is so sad to watch as the deteration is rapidly taking place. No I am not enjoying watching them destroy themselves. Sad sad sad.

[@SweepTheLeg2023]

❤✝ *My Wife called me a Narcissist, I said No! I'm Better than That!* 😃 I also got a subtle feeling she doesn't like my Jokes, she whispered "They will never find you if you keep it up"... So Romantic, I got that going for me.

[@janicedixon3390]

Awesome video! What I learned from a narcissistic relationship is that what I saw, how I felt in my ❤ & soul and my gut feelings about the many provocations I was being faced with was my truth and I could not/would not lose my truth in any situation. That is when the narc disappeared because when I explained to him calmly about the gaslighting, devaluing and continuous provocation attempts I went no contact & blocked him.

[@cslogic8107]

Kris is always 100 percent spot on. That kind of understanding doesn't come just from books.

[@angelac5590]

They never listen (not even listening to themselves) and never stop talking. This is one of the best videos on a frustrating topic. Thanks for sharing!

[@LiteAsAFeather]

This is totally helpful. Thank you for having this conversation and I’m so thankful to God 🙏🌱 It’s very helpful the way you always include Gods ways and the Bible 🌷🥰The smear campaign is what breaks me. It’s something that is very much been a hardship in my experience. Also setting the boundary of leaving and the other individual doesn’t respect that. It can become very scary

[@Kris_Reece]

Thanks for watching!
