“But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil.
(Mat 5:37)

I am sure that you have noticed while watching the news that dishonest politicians are in no way the picture of Matthew 5:37. Today their “yes” is yes, but tomorrow it will be “no.” What they say and do vacillates depending upon present circumstances. This is because they are self-serving with no sound, firm principles.

Wicked people are like this. RASNs (revilers, abusers, sociopaths, narcissists) are only consistent in being self-servers, users of others. They are the classic picture of the double standard. I knew a man just like this once. On the surface he seemed to be very confusing without any predictability. But he was in fact predictable – he would always come down on the side which served him the best.

RASNs are liars. Their yes is no and their no is yes. They also use this method to gaslight others. Crazy-making. Willfully unpredictable. “Sure, go ahead and buy those clothes for the kids.” 24 hours later – “you did what? Am I made of money?!!”

All of this is the mark of a wicked person who, if they claim to be a Christian, is a counterfeit – a tare among the wheat. Watch out for these kind in the church. When you sense that a person is consistently inconsistent, someone who is confusing to you – you are probably dealing with a RASN. A creep who has crept in among us.
