Do you feel like the magical connection you once had with the narcissist now feels more like a death grip? 

 You, my friend, have likely fallen prey to the narcissist’s deceptive new-age belief that is making Christians everywhere vulnerable to manipulative people— that there is a pre-destined soulmate out there who will complete you. 

I want to share with you why this new-age belief that you once thought was romantic and biblical is actuallyleading you down a path you may never recover from. 

 I also want to share with you the shocking reasons why the narcissist NEEDS you to believe this, plus how to recover if you've already fallen into this trap.  

 To do that, I want to tell you about Eli. 

 Eli was a talented potter who lived in a quaint village nestled at the edge of a lush forest. Eli was known all over the world for his exquisite pottery, each piece more beautiful than the last. However, Eli had a secret: he claimed a mystical clay from the forest was the source of his pottery’s beauty.  

He spoke of a legend, a tale of "The Perfect Clay," a material so pure and adaptable that only the most deserving artisans, destined by the stars, could find and use it. 

Intrigued by the promise of creating pottery as beautiful as Eli's, many villagers ventured into the forest, hoping to be the chosen ones to find "The Perfect Clay." Eli encouraged them, saying that only those with a true potter's soul, bound by destiny to the craft, would succeed. Yet, the forest was vast and the search endless. Many villagers became so obsessed with finding the mythical clay that they neglected their own craft, waiting for a destiny that never materialized. 

Meanwhile, back in the village, Eli continued to produce his pottery, not from mystical clay, but from the same earth as everyone else.  

His true talent lay in his skill and dedication, honed over years of practice—NOT in a magical ingredient. The villagers, lost in the pursuit of an illusory perfection, failed to realize that the beauty of pottery—and indeed, life—lies in the passion and effort, not some magical formula. 

Your narcissist is likely just like Eli, but instead of the perfect pottery, they're in search of the perfect partner. 

In fact, this new-age belief that there is a perfect, predestined partner is likely what wooed you in the beginning but is now leaving you feeling inadequate and constantly striving for their approval. 

Yes, narcissists believe in soulmates.And I'm going to share why.But I also want to share why you shouldn't.  

Soulmates are based on thebelief that you are 'complete' once you find that ONE perfect person created just for you. 

Believing that there's that one ideal individual that was created to complete you may sound romantic in movies, but it flies in the face of Colossians 2:10 that says, “You are complete in Christ.”

So, my friend, if there is no cosmic connection in the universe that is pulling you toward another person and if the work of the cross is already finished for you, why do narcissists need to believe in soulmates?  

Let's break down three primary reasons. 

Reason #1: It guarantees lasting admiration 

Narcissists are addicted to admiration, much like a plant basking in the sun's rays. It's a need. 

This insatiable hunger for external validation fuels their s
