Our ex narc-elder was envious of me. At the time I didn’t know anything about narcissism, especially from someone you thought you trusted as an elder/pastor. Now that I understand more about this wicked, evil disorder, I have been able to put two-and-two together regarding his behavior. Narcissistic spiritual abuse is very damaging. Again, our narc-elder was very envious of me and my talents; he would exploit them for his selfish ambition. He would do this with others too.
Psalms 82:4 Rescue the poor and needy: Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.
