An experience I had in a “Christian” cult showed that the leader was a narcissist surrounded by hundreds of codependent people. At least that’s how I see it in the light of this message. Thank you Pastor Ken.
Confession I have borderline personality disorder (BPD), and I often face stigma and misunderstanding from others who do not know my situation or condition. BPD is a complex and treatable mental health disorder that affects how I think, feel, and relate to others. It is not a character flaw or a sign of weakness. I can lead a fulfilling life with the help of therapy, medication, and support. I see this as part of my sanctification. The Bible teaches me to love as God loves, and to bear, believe, hope, and endure all things (1 Corinthians 13:7). I should not judge or condemn myself or others based on my struggles or theirs , but rather show compassion and grace. 🙏🏻🍁
I made the mistake of yoking with narco-path, for nearly a decade. Let's just say, you're never the same after you escape one of these people. I still struggle at times with wondering why God allowed her to get away with so much wickedness and damage. But ultimately I hold myself accountable for making the wrong choice. God was good enough to remove her from me, and set me on a new path, but it's not anything I'd ever want to face again. Thank you pastor Ken, God bless
