True, no longer hidden. And true, dark sided people are able to corrupt most anything they wish. Exploiting what is a positive natural God given sense for their own gain. Frauds like JZ Knight, Mediums, and the like.

I think what is troubling with regard to that which fosters condemnation and a malevolent spirit or meaning to Empathy and what it means to be Empathic, is not just the lack of understanding of what Empathy is, and the clear refusal to learn the truth about it, but the effort undertaken to make it appear as if those who are Empathetic, or Empathic, and hold Empathy, are of the Devil. Which would mean to imply, they're not actually Christians.

Sordid agendas of that nature are dark in themselves. Though it may also indicate that lack of Empathy is the issue. And making something sordid and of the adversary then makes them feel blessed, rather than in deficit of a sense that allows us to be more in tune with that God given sense, and as such relate to community as well as the state of the world in its sin.

Empathy is all through scripture and presented in a positive God affirming way. Condemn that at ones own peril.

1 Peter 3:8 Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.

I agree that is the exact truth of it.

The funny thing is that they dont even know how old I am nor how old this picture is.
Ive given up dealing with unteachable people around here. Even less those who condemn young ones (already unbiblical), calling me a child is an insult in itself so thats that too, then looking down on people who aren't saved.
CC has gone down the drain long ago. Enough reason for me to only come by every once in a while.
Thanks for standing up xx

some of the most childish people I know are too old to even have children ;)

one thing God does not do, is rescue us from our own ignorance and pride

the interesting thing is though, that we are told to become like little children before God

this is not an empath.

you are still making the same error regarding the word empathy and the person who says they are an empath

I will leave you to it along with all who agree.

people who know the difference have posted to that effect and you don't have to agree

I am not worried that you possess any of those empathic powers anyway, and empathy is usually bestowed by those who understand pain
