The Narcissism: The Epistle Of Jude With A Commentary: Narcissistic Characters In The Bible - Paperback

by Paola Brannock (Author)

Narcissism is defined as having an excessive interest in or admiration for oneself and in one's physical appearance. The word, although seemingly modern, has been around for a very long time. In Greek Mythology, Narcissus was known for his beauty and fixation on himself and his outer appearance. The story told about him is, after seeing his reflection in a pool of water, he fell in love as if it were another human being.
Few people ever consider the perils to be encountered by associating with a narcissist. Sadly, this is something the unfortunate souls who have happened to marry one knows all too well. This commentary is an appeal to rid the narcissist from within the midst of your congregation. It is also a warning for everyone to be especially careful about becoming personally involved, at any level other than evangelism, with a narcissist; for the narcissist cannot love.
