82% of Christians Fall Into This Demonic Trap With Toxic People
- Ever stayed quiet to “keep the peace”?
- Forgiven without real repentance?
- Stayed in a toxic relationship thinking it was “Christlike”?
👉 You could be caught in a spiritual trap, one that feels godly but keeps you bound.
5 Common Spiritual Traps:
1️⃣ Confusing Restoration with Reconciliation
- Jesus restored Peter after repentance (John 21:15–17).
- Forgiveness is required — reconciliation is not.
📖 Luke 17:3
👉 Don’t confuse release with return.
2️⃣ Mistaking Passivity for Patience
- Saying “I’m waiting on God” can actually be fear in disguise.
- Jesus confronted sin and set boundaries.
📖 Ephesians 4:15
👉 Patience waits in truth. Passivity avoids in fear.
3️⃣ People-Pleasing Disguised as Humility
- Wanting to “seem Christlike” may actually be approval addiction.
📖 Galatians 1:10
👉 Real humility is faithful, not fearful of rejection.
4️⃣ Trying to Be Someone’s Savior
- Helping can turn into rescuing — and drag you down.
📖 Mark 6:11
👉 You’re not the Holy Spirit. Only Jesus saves.
5️⃣ Letting Guilt Override Discernment
- Guilt says “stay” when God says “go.”
📖 Proverbs 3:21
👉 Let the Spirit, not guilt, guide your decisions.
