. In case you have any doubt about what God thinks of those who have the heart and actions of narcissists, Proverbs 6 makes it very clear .

Proverbs 6:16-19

¹⁶There are six things which the Lord hates, Yes, seven which are an abomination to Him: ¹⁷Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood, ¹⁸A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that run rapidly to evil, ¹⁹A false witness who utters lies, And one who spreads strife among brothers.
.

Several characteristics in the above list stand out as narcissistic traits .

Haughty eyes
Lying tongue
Heart that devises wicked plans
False witness who utters lies
One who spreads strife among brothers

. The bottom line is that God HATES insolent pride. It results in much harm to others, and is the single biggest barrier to the prideful person experiencing His true love and goodness.
