God's Ultimate Warning To Christians
"Well-written and the TRUTH."
"This is the best read I have ever read!!!!"
"Very powerful and profound."
"Amen. Absolutely true."
"Harry, I just finished reading your article. I cannot deny a single word in it. It is all true. Christ has given you a complete revelation. It drove me to my face to pray. It showed me how far off I am. Thank you."

WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT PSYCHOPATHS (I consider this one of the top five articles on this website. It is NOT what you think. ---Harry Bethel)
"Wow, thanks Brother Harry. That was a great read and has really got me thinking."

"The psychopath article is very eye opening (and frightening in its implications) to say the least. I pray the Lord will use this article to help and heal others hurting under the manipulation of psychopaths."
"I just read your psychopath article. Wow, it's an eye opener and those people are totally under Satan's spell. It's very frightening, we need to trust God in All we do, and All [whom] we meet."
"Very apt article" [M.D., psychiatrist]

John The Baptizer Did Not Waver in Prison

 

5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD READ ALL THE ARTICLES ON THIS WEBSITE:

1. Because there are many very important scriptural truths herein THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW that aren't taught in any Bible college or seminary, nor by any "pastor" or "Bible teacher."

2. Because the truth will set you free from the bondage of false teaching. (But it's not merely reading or hearing truth that sets you free, it's embracing it and applying it to your life that sets you free.)

3. By reading, comprehending and applying these truths to your life, you will benefit for all eternity more than you would otherwise. (Your response to these truths is eternally consequential.)

4. Embracing truth makes you spiritually powerful. If you embrace anything that isn't true, then to that extent your spiritual power is diminished. Jesus emphatically said, "If that 'light' within you is darkness [false teaching], how great is that darkness!"

5. Being set free from doctrinal error not only empowers you, it also brings more glory to Jesus Christ who is the Truth personified.

Questions and Answers

An Important Read

 

If You're Resisting The NWO You're Resisting God.  WHAT ???

It is God's will for the establishment of the New World Order (one-world government), so why are so many people, including Christians, trying to prevent that which is impossible to stop? "These have one purpose, and they give their power to the beast [Antichrist]...For God has put it in their hearts to execute His purpose by having a common purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the beast [Antichrist], until the words of God will be fulfilled" (Revelation 17:13-17).

 

The Sin of Unforgiveness

 

MUSHROOM CLOUDS FOR THE U.S.A. ???

"And the kings of the earth...will...see the smoke of her burning...For in one hour your judgment has come...in one hour she has been laid waste" (Revelation 18:9-19).

 

 

 

The Mayan Calendar And The End of The World

The world is coming to an end, and it will probably be before the end of 2020 (no one on earth knows the hour or the day), but notwithstanding the fact that many believe the end of the world will coincide with the end of the Mayan calendar on 12/21/2012, the world WILL NOT end in 2012. (Of this I am 100% sure, and there is zero chance I am wrong about this.) Find out why by reading some of the articles on this website.

40 of Hell's Best-Kept Secrets Concerning Money and Wealth
If you don't embrace a biblical understanding of money, you don't have a right relationship with God and you are worshipping a figment of your imagination. You CANNOT serve God and money.

10 Things Your Pastor Does Not Want You To Know
Look at this. Very revealing!

 

"I'm A Believer"

Among all the billions of people in hell awaiting the Judgment there is not one single atheist.

Well-Connected, Multiple Sources in High Places

There is a growing number of Christian alarmist-opportunist-survivalist charlatans who claim to have many well-connected "sources." They and their followers would be immeasurably better off to stick to one Source and be well-connected to Him.

 

REJECTING LIGHT RESULTS IN GREATER DARKNESS. ARE YOU REJECTING ANY OF THE LIGHT PRESENTED ON THIS WEBSITE?

The Deceitfulness Of Riches
Many people, including Christians, are deceived about money. Are you?

 

Beloved Christian, you can learn more relevant, important, scriptural truths reading all the articles on this website than you could learn by attending any church, seminary or Bible college on this planet. The problem is, more than 99% of all Christians cannot handle most of the scriptural truths presented herein (especially so-called pastors, seminary professors and Bible teachers).

Democracy --- A Scriptural Perspective
Were the founders of the good ole 'US of A' Christians? What does God think about Democracy?

A Word To The Wise

Conventional wisdom is usually foolishness to God. This website presents unconventional wisdom of God. Sorry to say, the vast majority of true Christians prefer the ear-tickling conventional wisdom of all the end-time charlatans.

 

 Sharpen Your Axes

Christians don't need to return to their Jewish roots, as some teach; these errant teachers need to repent and take an axe to the root of their false teaching.

 

 

Confounding Contradictions

To have a correct concept of God it must include the following: God is in absolute control of all His creation. He is absolutely perfect in all that He says and does. Anything that you believe that contradicts this is false.

 

If the Holy Spirit would open your spiritual eyes to "see" all, or even most, of the truths presented on this website, your understanding of God and His ways and your purpose in life would forever be changed by an immeasurable amount, for your eternal benefit and the glory of God.

The Truth About Abortion
What does God really think about abortion?

An example of genuine love is a prophet who disturbs comfortable Christians, like the giraffe who kicks her newborn baby so that it will get up out of its comfort zone and avoid being devoured by the enemy.

Counting The Cost
Have you really counted the cost of following Jesus?

 

ARE YOU A SALTY CHRISTIAN?

Are you a salty Christian, a low-salt Christian, or a salt-free Christian?

"You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men" (Mt. 5:13). "Let your speech always be...seasoned with salt..." (Col. 4:6).

 

A Four-Letter Word That Most True Christians Hate

OBEY

Jesus said if you love Him you will OBEY His ~180 N.T. commandments.

The Art of Almost Saying Something
Most "pastors" today have this gift. Very enlightening article.

  

Only Qualified Men Should Apply

In the first century twelve disciples of Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, turned the world upside down. Now, in the end-time apostasy of true Christians, we need a dozen men who are disciples of Jesus and who have been filled with the Holy Spirit to turn Christianity right side up; but apparently there aren't twelve men who meet these qualifications. Come, Lord Jesus.

 

TODAY'S NEWS ???

"The borrower is slave to the lender" (Proverbs 22:7). "Owe no man anything" (Romans 13:8).

 

 

WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT PSYCHOPATHS
"Wow, thanks brother Harry. That was a great read and has really got me thinking."

"The psychopath article is very eye opening (and frightening in its implications) to say the least. I pray the Lord will use this article to help and heal others hurting under the manipulation of psychopaths."

"I just read your latest article, and I said "Wow."

 

"A scoffer does not listen to rebuke" (Proverbs 13:1).

 

Are You A True-Christian Apostate?

 

 

THE ULTIMATE IRONY

The ultimate irony for true Christians is that everybody gets exactly what they want---not what they merely say they want, but what they really want---for all eternity. If you really want a close walk with Jesus while you are on this planet, you can have it. If you want to walk at a distance from Jesus, then that is what you will get for all eternity (assuming that you don't forfeit your salvation by being lukewarm toward Christ or by being overcome by the Antichrist during the Great Tribulation and take the Mark of the Beast, etc.).

Should Christians Fear God?

 

Are You Afraid To Die?

"Perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love" (1 John 4:18).

Non-Resistance
Non-resistance is not pacifism, but most Christians reject the truths in this article. Christians who break Jesus' commandments concerning non-resistance will be called least in the kingdom of Heaven.

 

Worthless Sacrifices

Praying is no substitute for obeying. To obey is better than sacrifice. Do you obey the ~ 180 N.T. commandments?

DO I KNOW YOU ???

Never say that you know a man or a woman until you have interacted with them long enough to be 100% sure he or she is not a psychopath. No matter how long you have "known" a psychopath, you have only known a fake persona. (Read What You Must Know About Psychopaths.)

 

Gluttons For Punishment

Beloved Christian, are ALL of your trials, tribulations and heartaches working together for your good? If you truly love God they are. Otherwise, they aren't. Read Romans 8:28.

Should Christians Tithe?

WHY NOT?

 

 

 

Darker Than Dark

Scientists say there is a phenomenon in outer space called "dark matter" that does not emit or reflect any light. Sad to say, today, there is a lot of dark matter in most Bible teachers. "If the 'light' that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!" (Matthew 6:23).

 

Decisions, Decisions

The closer an unmarried Christian walks with the Lord, the fewer suitable Christian marriage partners there are on this planet. However, a single person seeking a marriage partner should let the Lord make the choice, if any.

 

 

Beloved Visitor,

If you are a "pastor" or "elder" or "deacon" or "evangelist" some of the scriptural truths revealed on this website will GREATLY interfere with your "ministry."

 

Ignored, Profound Truths

If you are not ready to die (for any reason) you are not ready to live for Jesus. If you do not love all of your enemies, you do not love Jesus. Jesus said if you love Him you will obey His commands. One of His commands is to love your enemies.

 

About The Author

 

Are You Foolish?

All atheists and agnostics know there is a God (Rom. 1:18-20; Jn. 1:9), but they will not admit it, and lie about what they know to be the truth. Therefore, it is the ultimate absurdity to debate the existence of God.

"The fool says in his heart there is no God" (Psalm 14:1).

 

Apostasy? What Apostasy?

If the vast majority of true Christians are not apostate then the return of Jesus is NOT near. "With regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him...Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first" (2 Thessalonians 2:1 & 3).

Do $ Signs Blur Your Vision?

Which part of "the borrower is slave to the lender" and "owe no man anything" do you not understand? (Proverbs 22:7; Romans 13:8).

 

Is God's Love UNconditional?

Jesus said, "IF [conditional] you obey My commands [there are approx. 180 N.T. commandments], you will remain in My love" (John 15:10).

"Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated" (Romans 9:13).

Jesus said to Christians who were in Him, "Because you are lukewarm [toward Me]...I will vomit you out" (Rev. 3:16).

Does "Gay" Sound Better To God Than "Homo" or "Sodomite"?

Regardless of what any group or society or government says about homosexuality, it is an abominable sin in the sight of God. All practicing homosexuals are demonized and should repent and be saved from their sins. God's judgment is coming upon America for this and many other perversions and sins.

You can lead a Christian to Truth, but you can't make him believe it.

 

The Three-God Straw Man

For the Jesus-Only crowd: There is only ONE God, not three. However, the Oneness Doctrine is unscriptural. The Trinitarian Doctrine IS scriptural. Trinity = 1 X 1 X 1 = 1, NOT 1 + 1 + 1 = 3.

The World's Oldest Cover-up

Adam and Eve "sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves." (Genesis 3:7)

Many of the scriptural truths presented on this website are esoteric* and can only be known to be true by meeting the three conditions to become a learner of Jesus (Luke 14:26, 27, 33). Hardly any Christians are true disciples (learners) of Jesus.

*Not referring to Gnosticism, so-called enlightenment or heretical movements.

Do You Really Want To Know The Truth About The Holocaust?

 

Futile Figments

Everyone, who is not born again, including Jews and everyone else no matter how "religious" they are, does not worship the one and only true God, they only worship a figment of their imagination. Jesus said, "He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him" (Jn. 5:24) and "God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in TRUTH" (Jn. 4:24).

The Chastening Of The Lord
A very important message for the "Name-It-And-Claim-It" crowd (and all other Christians).

 

What's in A Name, Anyway?

In these last days of apostasy Fundamentalists are not very fundamental, Evangelicals are not very evangelistic, Literalists don't interpret the Bible literally, Conservatives are not very conservative, Protestants don't protest (Catholicism), Separatists are not very separated, Charismatics don't have much charisma, Pentecostals are not filled with the Holy Spirit, and Holiness Christians are not very holy.

 

Beloved Christian,

If you embrace and apply to your life the scriptural truths presented on this website, on the Day of Judgment you will be VERY glad you did. Yes, really.

Should Christians Fear God?


DID YOU READ YOUR TREASURED BIBLE TODAY (or yesterday)?

Why do most Bibles have small print and thin paper through which the print on the opposite side shows, making it difficult to read?

Because Bible publishers maximize profits with cheap paper and fewer pages, knowing that hardly any Christians read their Bible, anyway.

 

WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT PSYCHOPATHS

The Great Postponement

Problems, Problems

You may not like some of the truths presented on this website --- you may even hate them. None of them can be refuted by the Bible because all of them are true. Your real problem is not with the author of these articles; your problem is with God.

 

"My brethren, if any among you strays from the truth and one turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner [sinning Christian] from the error of his way will save his soul from death [separation from God] and will cover a multitude of sins" (James 5:19-20).
 

The Pre-Tribulation Rapture Hoax

 

Difficult Question With An Easy Answer

Beloved pastor or Bible teacher, in light of the dire warning of James 3:1, why do you teach so many false doctrines (doctrines of demons)?

 

Typical Christian Response

 

Are You Spiritually Malnourished?

Christians are being fed by their "pastors" spiritual box-lunches that are full of junk food and harmful additives---and they gobble it up.

 

There comes a time in the life of most Christians when they admit that they embraced much false teaching, for various reasons---it was easier than embracing the truth, the cost was too high, self-deceived, ad nauseam. Sad to say, for many Christians, that time will be on the Day of Judgment.

Smokescreens
You're going to like this.

 

"When the children of God accept the world's values it is time some Christians spoke up. Babylon may have her gods, her own way of life and moral standards. It is when Israel [the Church] begins to adopt them that the prophet of God becomes responsible to rise and cry out against them." (A.W. Tozer)

 

Have You Counted The Cost?

Rejection of biblical truth is in direct proportion to the cost involved (monetary, position, friends, family, church, etc.).

 

Have you ever told God that you don't care what the truth is, you just want to know what it is so you can obey---and meant it with all your heart? Why not?

 

"Love is patient, love is kind...Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the TRUTH" (1 Corinthians 13:4-6).

 

Busy About Whose Business?

God does not send a man to do very much for Him until he has met the three conditions to be a disciple and has been filled with the Holy Spirit. If this is true, and it is, then the vast majority of Christians are doing things that God did not send them to do.

 

About The Author

 

Irrelevant Truths

If a church has a huge membership, or if a book (except the Bible) sells millions of copies, you can be sure of this: the truths that need to be heard by Christians are not being presented, or we are not living in the last days of apostasy and the Lord's return is not near. Think about it.

P.S. Very few of all the Bibles purchased today are actually being read.

 

Loving The Darkness

Most Christians, instead of walking in the bright center of the path where Jesus is walking, are on the perilous periphery where the shadows fade into darkness.

 

Serious Monkey Business

Some evolutionists are the nicest people you would ever want to meet. Sad to say, unless they repent of their sins and are born again they will be confined to the Lake of Fire (much longer than billions of years) where their worm dieth not, neither doth it evolve into something else. (See Mark 9:48)

 

Here A Friend, There A Friend, Everywhere A Friend

The closer you walk with Jesus the fewer Christian friends you will have. Did you read that correctly? The closer you walk with Jesus the fewer Christian friends you will have.

A Message For Roman Catholics

WILL CHRISTIANS BE JUDGED ON JUDGMENT DAY?
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

"When the Son of Man comes...He will sit on His glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; and He will put the sheep [Christians] on His right, and the goats [unsaved] on His left" (Mat. 25:31-33).

"We will ALL stand before the judgment seat of God...So then each one of us [Christians] will give an account of himself to God" (Rom. 14:10, 12).

"For we [Christians] must ALL appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad" (2 Cor. 5:10).

"God will judge both the righteous man and the wicked man" (Ecc. 3:17).

"For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil" (Ecc. 12:14).

Christ "is ready to judge the living [Christians] and the dead [unsaved]" (1 Peter 4:5).

"This is the One [Jesus] who has been appointed by God as Judge of the living [Christians] and the dead [unsaved]" (Acts 10:42).

"Every careless word that people [saved and unsaved] speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment" (Mat. 12:36).

"Jesus...is to judge the living [Christians] and the dead [unsaved]" (2 Tim. 4:1).

"The Lord will judge His people" (Heb. 10:30).

"Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment" (James 3:1).

 

"The most destructive weapon of mass destruction is not a nuclear bomb, it is a human tongue." ---Harry Bethel

"No one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison" (James 4:8).

More Decisions

The closer you walk with Jesus the lonelier you will be in terms of fellowship with other Christians in these last days of apostasy. You cannot have it both ways. Which way do you choose?

The Astonishing Truth About Water Baptism

 

Messy Movements

There is a significant survivalist, suffering-avoidance movement that is growing today, even among true Christians. Those wannabe hero-leaders and their followers would be better off if they planted tulips.

"Whoever wishes to save his life will lose it" (Mat. 16:25). "Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" (Mat. 10:28). "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world" (2 Cor. 10:4). "Do not worry about you life, as to what you will eat; nor for your body, as to what you will put on...Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap; they have no storeroom nor barn, and yet God feeds them; how much more valuable you are than the birds!" (Lk. 12:22-24), et al.

The Truth About Footwashing

 

Big-Time Accountability

Why do you allow your pastor to teach you, your wife and your children false doctrines (doctrines of demons)? Don't you know that you will have to account to Jesus Christ on the Day of Judgment for what you allow your pastor to teach you and your family?

 

"Truth consists not merely in correct doctrine but in correct doctrine to which is added the inward enlightenment of the Holy Spirit...John the Baptist said, "A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven" (John 3:27). He was not referring to men's gifts. He was speaking of spiritual truth." (A.W. Tozer)

 

There are true prophets and false "profits." There are scarcely any of the first group and many of the second. The first group is in it for the good of the few who will listen, the other is in it for the money of the many. Most Christians don't know the difference, and they don't support either one.

Questions And Answers
Very interesting questions with very interesting, but brief answers.

PROGRESS

A civilized, Christian nation is one in which the legislators and/or courts allow people to kill their unborn children, publish and distribute pornography, commit sodomy, and has a 50% divorce rate, has more than two million people in jail or prison, and a majority of the high school students are fornicators. A primitive, pagan society is one that has not yet progressed to this level.

"The man who preaches truth and applies it to the lives of his hearers will feel the nails and the thorns. He will lead a hard life, but a glorious one. May God raise up many such prophets. The church needs them badly." (A.W. Tozer)

"Another kind of religious leader must arise among us. He must be of the old prophet type, a man who has seen visions of God and has heard a voice from the Throne. When he comes (and I pray God there will be not one but many) he will stand in flat contradiction to everything our smirking, smooth civilization holds dear. He will contradict, denounce and protest in the name of God and will earn the hatred and opposition of a large segment of Christendom." (A.W. Tozer)

Whose Voice Do You Hear?

We are living in a time when even the so-called voices crying in the wilderness come from true Christian men who refuse to become a learner (disciple) of Jesus (The Truth), who are not obedient enough to be filled with the Holy Spirit (God fills those who obey), and who do not even know what grace and faith are.

"Please carefully read this entire article. You'll be glad you did."---Brother Harry

A FEW COMMENTS FROM READERS:

I was astounded by the article because I was a victim of a psychopath and had not realized it until now. I felt so guilty because all the while I was trying to figure out what I had done wrong in the relationship, feeling less than a woman and could not figure anything out, but thanks to you I realize I was just another prey on the person's list. Through you, God has let me realize that I am still special and always will be and I have to be more careful and wait for Him to bless me with a mate and not go ahead and choose one who "appears" to be God-sent.
Thank you Harry.

"Wow, thanks brother Harry. That was a great read and has really got me thinking."

"The psychopath article is very eye opening (and frightening in its implications) to say the least. I pray the Lord will use this article to help and heal others hurting under the manipulation of psychopaths."

"I just read your psychopath article. Wow, it's an eye opener and those people are totally under Satan's spell. It's very frightening, we need to trust God in All we do, and All [whom] we meet."

"I came across your article regarding psychopaths and I had mixed emotions of relief and disappointment. I'm disappointed because I wish I had read that article 2 years ago. A man that I dated those couple of years ago, unfortunately was a psychopath. He was a dream come true. Everything I ever wanted. He told me he was a Christian, because I had made it clear that I only dated Christians. Anyway, to make a long story short, he left me devastated, hurting, depressed, and suicidal. I questioned my faith in God. So, two years passed and I thought I was fine, but I attracted yet again someone I suspect to be a a psychopath. Charming, two-faced, bait-and-switch. All of the positive elements slowly slipped away, piece by piece. So, here I am again two years later feeling like I've been run over by a train and wishing that I would be run over by a train."

"Very apt article" [M.D., psychiatrist]

Only about one in 30,000 psychopaths are serial killers. The Hollywood depiction of psychopaths is, in part, a distraction from the real dangers concerning the typical psychopath who is not a serial killer, but is extremely evil and dangerous.

There are more than 10,000,000 psychopaths in the United States (yes, more than ten million) and more than 100,000,000 worldwide and the percentage of psychopaths is increasing.

Many psychopaths "target" true Christians because Christians are generally more empathic and easier to manipulate and control.

If you are an empathic Christian living in America (where the percentage of psychopaths is higher than most countries), you have been or are now or probably will be, unknowingly, in a close relationship with a psychopath. Most likely, you will know that you have been emotionally and physically drained, confused, and even devastated---but you will not understand why. I strongly recommend that you carefully read this entire article.

Psychopaths have infiltrated all strata of society, including corporate executives (and lower-level employees), law enforcement, military, politicians and other government workers including those in the highest positions, medical doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers, psychologists and psychiatrists, lawyers, Hollywood and TV actors, newscasters and talk-show hosts, financial institutions, Wall Street jobs, academia, pastors and other church leaders, and perhaps your next-door neighbor, or your husband or wife or son or daughter or father or mother.

Psychopaths get pleasure by physically and/or mentally abusing anyone else, and believe they are far superior to all non-psychopaths, and that peoples' emotions and empathy and conscience are severe hindrances to humans, and are to be used by the psychopath to exploit, manipulate and control people for their own pleasure and benefit.

One of the main manipulative techniques employed by psychopaths is evoking pity from a victim. They are adept at causing the innocent victim to feel guilty or responsible for the evil behavior of the predatory psychopath.

Psychopaths are not psychotic, nor are they considered to be insane by the U.S. judicial system. They are rational and are fully aware of their motives, predatory nature and evil behavior.

Psychopaths do not have a conscience. It is impossible for a normal person to comprehend the mind of a psychopath. The way psychopaths view themselves in contrast to normal people is fundamentally different from the essential attributes that make one a "human." They lack empathy, remorse for any wrongdoing, compassion and love.

The vast majority of psychopaths never commit murder. However, all of them are very capable of murdering anyone (including their children or spouse or parents) if it suited their situation and they would not lose a moment's sleep even if they murdered all of them at one time.

Because of society's general beliefs in right and wrong and ethical human behavior and morality, dictated primarily by the conscience of normal human beings, psychopaths know the difference between right and wrong, but they simply do not care if they violate society's standards---or the clear commands of the Bible.

Psychopaths do not fear God. Indeed, some psychopaths view themselves as some kind of god, or at least, a demigod who is not bound by the laws, rules and ethics of normal people.

Psychopaths believe humans are here for them to use like any material thing that they use, and they have never felt guilty or remorseful about anything they have ever said or done.

Psychopaths are experts at hiding their evil motives and machinations and are among the most evil creatures on the planet (they are just as evil as demons).

The soon-coming Antichrist and False Prophet, doubtless, will be psychopaths, as well as all the elite New World Order controllers who are currently working behind the scenes to establish the end-time One-World Government and Economic System, which will soon be ready to implement.

Psychopaths have no conscience, do not love (nor can they comprehend what love is), are pathological liars who can pass lie detector tests, are usually very good actors, use invented personas that they change to manipulate different targets, have never experienced empathy, compassion, sympathy, guilt or remorse, and are the worst kind of predator on the earth. Indeed, they are evil personified.

Psychopaths pick a target (prey) after observing their weak points. They can rapidly make the victim believe that the psychopath is a "dream come true" in the new relationship, oftentimes encouraging a quick marriage, then they continue to manipulate and control the target, emotionally draining him or her, and, in other ways, wreak havoc until the psychopath abandons their victim (or until the victim escapes).

The charm of a psychopath is second to none. It is as if "they never met anyone they didn't know." Their initial friendliness and charisma is virtually irresistible to unsuspecting targets.

After psychopaths abandon their close-relationship prey, they oftentimes defame them with lies and extraordinarily evil character assassination. They move on to, or keep their eyes open for, their next unsuspecting and naive victim.

It takes years for some victims who have been in a long-term close relationship with a psychopath to recover from the emotional vampirism and mental abuse to which they were subjected. In some cases victims never recover and are committed to mental institutions or commit suicide, because the experience is so mind-blowing and devastating and incomprehensible when they realize that the person whom they loved never loved or cared one little bit for them and abandoned them as easily as flipping off a light switch.

The victim discovers that he or she was in love with a fake persona and that the marriage vows meant absolutely zero to the psychopathic spouse. The victim is devastated after realizing that the person they loved and "knew" never existed. It was all an act and a fake persona invented just for them. This experience is unique (like none other) and cannot be conveyed to anyone who has not experienced this mind-blowing scenario that forever alters the victim's view of humanity after seeing a new facet of pernicious evil.

The deceived victim perceives the psychopath's invented persona as their long-awaited, perfect "soul mate."

The victim usually discovers that he or she is one of many who have been used and abused and emotionally destroyed (until recovery) by one of the earth's supreme predators.

Most psychopaths are very promiscuous and, over many years, commit fornication or adultery with dozens or hundreds of short-term and long-term targets.

Many psychopaths have had several short-term marriages, and this fact is oftentimes not revealed to a new target or spouse.

There is no cure for psychopathy, and, after much research, this author has never discovered a credible report of a true psychopath who has really been born again---contrary to some claims, including the claims of some prison inmates who successfully deceived parole boards, experienced psychologists and psychiatrists, judges, jurors and family members.

Some criminals who claim to have been born again while incarcerated were not psychopathic, but rather psychotic. Psychotics have a conscience, but psychopaths do not.

Some psychopaths specialize in posing as an outstanding "Christian," reading their Bible and praying every day and being active in church programs, etc. Some take Bible courses or attend Bible college or seminary in order to deceive a parole board and/or their current or future victims.

Most psychopaths have never been convicted of a crime, and the prison population in the U.S. is comprised of only about 25% psychopaths. However, at least, 50% of all violent crimes are committed by psychopaths and their rate of recidivism is much higher than that of non-psychopath inmates.

Some reasons why psychopaths might pick you for their prey:

1. If you believe there is some good in all people whether they are true Christians or not. There is absolutely no good whatsoever in a psychopath. They are pure evil. Everything they say or do that "appears" to be good, is only part of their invented persona meant to deceive, manipulate and disarm you and others.

Psychopaths are the most deceptive creatures and the most convincing liars on the planet. They can deceive and manipulate seasoned psychologists and psychiatrists who have had decades of experience trying to help psychopaths and their victims. So, you do not necessarily need to be naive to become a target, it just makes it easier and less challenging for the predator.

Psychopaths are classic "wolves in sheep's clothing," which includes many so-called pastors and church leaders. Psychopaths are as evil as any demon. If you cannot accept this truth you are ripe for becoming a victim, with very serious consequences.

2. If you don't believe there are people who do not have a conscience.

3. If you are very lonely and looking for companionship.

4. If you easily fall for a "pity play," including, for example, wanting to give money to every street person with a cardboard sign that you encounter. (Some street people have legitimate reasons for being in their situation, but most are in their predicament because of continuously making wrong choices with drugs, alcohol and an unwillingness to work to earn a living.)

5. If you are emotionally insecure and desire a relationship with someone who is emotionally strong. (Psychopaths can spot an insecure person very easily.)

6. If you have accounts on social networking websites, you should consider deleting all of them. Those websites are a feast for psychopaths, who are the world's best con artists.

How to recognize psychopaths:

1. They are glib and superficial. That is to say, psychopaths seem to be very much at ease, speaking in a smooth, informal and nonchalant manner. Their words seem to be insincere and without depth, but this red flag is usually ignored by the target.

2. They advance in the new relationship extremely fast, and make you think that it is because you and the psychopath are so much alike and are just perfect for one another. The psychopath may tell you that he (or she) loves you the first day that you meet.

3. They seem to be overly caring and concerned about your well-being, having just met you.

4. Most psychopaths can be very charming and very flattering. They are experts at making you feel good about yourself. However, there will almost always be several prominent "red flags" early on, but will usually be ignored because the psychopath is so "nice" and charismatic, and fun to talk with and fun to be with. The target will likely dismiss one red flag after another, against his or her intuition or "gut feeling" that something definitely is not right about this person or the way in which the relationship is very rapidly progressing.

5. Psychopaths are very promiscuous and will likely tempt you to become sexually involved very soon. (The psychopath may be aware that he or she has a sexually transmitted disease, including AIDS or syphilis, but will not tell the victim.)

6. Many psychopaths have a history of frequent moving from one residence to another, and/or a vague history with long periods of absence. They tend to be very bored and are almost constantly seeking new prey.

7. Psychopaths almost always play the "pity card" and repeatedly recount, for example, how bad their childhood was and how they had to fend for themselves because of the parental neglect or abuse. All of this is to evoke sympathy and compassion. It is all part of their scheme to manipulate and control.

8. In conversation, a psychopath may use phrases like "get away with" when they are talking about something bad that they did, with the desire to avoid blame or punishment or criticism. All psychopaths spend their entire life seeking to "get away with" as much as they possibly can, using anyone they can.

9. The modus operandi of psychopaths is as though they are all using the same "How To" manual. There seems to be some kind of spirit that influences and guides all psychopaths in the same basic mode of operation.

There are three main stages through which the pernicious psychopath takes the victim.

The first stage is Idealization. This includes excessive flattery and giving much "love" and attention to the target.

The second stage is Devaluation. Psychopaths are very adept at knowing just which buttons to push and when. Psychopaths start tearing down all that was built up; criticizing and devaluing the victim. If the psychopath is a wife she will blatantly rebel against the target-husband. Before psychopaths are ready to abandon their prey they will have already begun to "gaslight" the victim.

Gaslighting is a term used by those who study psychopathy to define mind games that psychopaths play to try to make their victims think they have lost their mind and have lost their grasp of reality.

The term "gaslight" comes from a movie made in 1944 titled, "Gaslight." In the movie, a woman's husband tries to make her believe she is going insane, in part, by him secretly reducing the flow of natural gas to the lights in the house. The wife notices the dim lights, but the husband denies there has been any change in the brightness and that she is only imagining things.

Tricking their prey, psychopaths do several things to make their victims think they are going crazy, such as moving pieces of furniture around in a room and the psychopath asking the victim, for example, "Why did you move that chair to the other side of the room?"

Another example of gaslighting would be repeatedly leaving the top off of a bottle of mouthwash or a toothpaste tube, and, when asked, the psychopath convincingly denies having done such a thing. The target begins to believe that he or she repeatedly left the top off, but could not remember doing it.

There are many ways in which the psychopath uses "gaslighting" to try to damage the target mentally. The purpose is to completely control the victim, and to win the "game" that can actually result in the bewildered victim being incarcerated in a mental institution, or even committing suicide. Either one of these outcomes would give the perverted, evil psychopath a "rush" and pleasure beyond description. If the victim were to commit suicide the psychopath's pleasure would be "over the top."

Psychopaths derive great pleasure from causing their prey mental and physical suffering---and the evil predators never feel any remorse or guilt.

The third stage is Abandonment. After the psychopath has determined that there is nothing more to get from using the mentally (and probably physically) drained victim, the emotional vampire abruptly abandons the prey. A victim may come home to unexpectedly discover that the psychopath is gone and nowhere to be found.

Of course, there are cases in which the prey abandons (escapes from) the psychopath if they finally realize that they have been dealing with a monster all along. In any case, if possible, the absolute best thing to do after being abandoned is to have no contact whatsoever with the psychopath---none.

After the abandonment, the psychopath oftentimes embarks on a horrendous smear campaign against the victim (even if it is limited to family, friends and acquaintances), with outlandish lies and gross exaggerations, accusing the victim of the very things the psychopath did. Mutual friends and neighbors and family members oftentimes believe the very convincing psychopath, and think that the victim is lying and/or has become mentally ill. This intensely frustrating situation alone would be enough to cause utter despair and debilitation.

Again, psychopaths have no conscience and they believe that they are far superior to normal humans. Psychopaths have nothing but disdain for all normal humans because they were created in the image of God with a conscience.

Psychopaths are among the earth's most evil creatures, who, just like Satan and his demons, are here to steal, to kill, and to destroy humans.  "God...endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction" (Romans 9:22).

Psychopaths are in the same class of creatures as some of the Jews whom Jesus told, "You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father" (John 8:44).

All psychopaths are antichrists and anti-humans. They believe that humans are at their disposal to use just as their father, the devil, desires.

"Just as you heard that Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they were not really of us" (1 John 2:18-19).
