When dealing with narcissists, psychopaths, and various types of abusers, it is important to know truth. The false
truth that they spout is to be recognized and resisted. The abused must leave. In this short piece, some good advice is given.
To
say that abusers cannot change removes responsibility for sin. They
can change, but the vast majority choose not to, which is what the
experts state. When God punishes them, their punishment is just.
Abusers have options for treatment and are accountable.
Once the marriage covenant is broken through abuse, the abused
partner does not need to stay in the marriage waiting for the abuser to
change. The abuser's recovery is a separate issue and his change is his
own responsibility, not his wife's. This is the mistake most churches
make. These churches have over-sentimentalized marriage and are
legalists.
The article is short but to the point. The web site is
Crying out for Justice. They are on Facebook as well.
If you or a member of your family, or if you are in a church situation where the pastor or other leaders are abusers, this is a helpful site. Again one must leave abuse.
God bless.
