Rom16.17-18 “17 Now I exhort you, brothers, to look out for those who cause dissensions and temptations contrary to the teaching which you learned, and stay away from them. 18 For such people do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own stomach, and by smooth speech and flattery they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting.”

Titus 3.10 “10 Reject a divisive person after a first and second admonition,”

Divisive meaning tending to cause disagreement or hostility between people.

Gal 1.8 “8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should proclaim a gospel to you contrary to what we proclaimed to you, let him be accursed!”

James 1.26 “26 If anyone thinks he is religious, although he does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.”

These verses show that God does not want us to be controlled by people who teach false doctrines, cause divisions, or use flattering words to manipulate us. We should avoid such people and follow the truth of the gospel. We should also control our own tongues and not deceive ourselves or others with our words.

Spirit of Manipulating

1 Cor 13.1-13 “1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a ringing brass gong or a clashing cymbal. 2 And if I have the gift of prophecy and I know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 And if I parcel out all my possessions, and if I hand over my body in order that I will be burned, but do not have love, it benefits me nothing. 4 Love is patient, love is kind, love is not jealous, it does not boast, it does not become conceited, 5 it does not behave dishonorably, it is not selfish, it does not become angry, it does not keep a record of wrongs, 6 it does not rejoice at unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth, 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never ends. But if there are prophecies, they will pass away. If there are tongues, they will cease. If there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we …”

Mark 13.22 “22 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear, and will produce signs and wonders in order to mislead, if possible, the elect.”

1jn 2.4 “4 The one who says “I have come to know him,” and does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in this person.”

Ps 91.1-16 “1 One who lives in the secret place of the Most High will lodge in the shadow of Shaddai. 2 I will say to Yahweh, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust.” 3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, from the plague of destruction. 4 With his feathers he will cover you, and under his wings you can take refuge. His faithfulness will be a shield and a buckler. 5 You need not fear the terror of the night, or the arrow that flies by day, 6 or the plague that spreads in the darkness, or the destruction that devastates at noon. 7 A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. 8 You will only look with your eyes, and see the punishment of the wicked. 9 For you, O Yahweh, are my refuge. You have made the Most High your dwelling place. 10 No harm will befall you, and no plague will come near your tent. 11 For he will command his angels concerning you, to watch over you in all your ways. 12 In their hands they …”

Eph 6.12 “12 because our struggle is not against blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.”

Rom 12.1-2 “1 Therefore I exhort you, brothers, through the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, so that you may approve what is the good and well-pleasing and perfect will of God.”

Lk 17.1-37 “1 And he said to his disciples, “It is impossible for causes for stumbling not to come, but woe to him through whom they come! 2 It would be better for him if a millstone is placed around his neck and he is thrown into the sea than that he causes one of these little ones to sin. 3 “Be concerned about yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. 4 And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times he returns to you saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.” 5 And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6 So the Lord said, “If you have faith like a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you. 7 “And which of you who has a slave plowing or shepherding sheep who comes in from the field will say to him, ‘Come here at once and recline at the table’? 8 Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare something that I may eat, and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drin…”

Jame 1.1-27 “1 James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the dispersion. Greetings! 2 Consider it all joy, my brothers, whenever you encounter various trials, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance have its perfect effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking in nothing. 5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask for it from God, who gives to all without reservation and not reproaching, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask for it in faith, without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed about. 7 For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. 9 Now let the brother of humble circumstances boast in his high position, 10 but the rich person in his humiliation, because he will pass away like a flower of the grass. 11 For the sun rises with its burning heat …”

2Tim 3.1-5 “1 But know this, that in the last days difficult times will come, 2 for people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 hardhearted, irreconcilable, slanderous, without self-control, savage, with no interest for what is good, 4 traitors, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God, 5 maintaining a form of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid these people.”

These verses show that controlling people are rebellious, divisive, selfish, deceitful, and harmful to others. They do not follow the teachings of Jesus or the example of the apostles. They should be avoided and rejected by those who love God and want to live in peace and harmony with others.

James 1.26 “26 If anyone thinks he is religious, although he does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.”

1 Tim 5.8 “8 But if someone does not provide for his own relatives, and especially the members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”

Prov 25.26 “26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain is the righteous who gives way before the wicked.”

2 Tim 1.7 “7 For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power and love and self-discipline.”

Gal 5.16-26 “16 But I say, live by the Spirit, and you will never carry out the desire of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh, for these are in opposition to one another, so that whatever you want, you may not do these things. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are sexual immorality, impurity, licentiousness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, factions, 21 envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, things which I am telling you in advance, just as I said before, that the ones who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Now those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh together with its feelings and its desires. 2…”

Rom 14.1-23 “1 Now receive the one who is weak in faith, but not for quarrels about opinions. 2 One believes he may eat all things, but the one who is weak eats only vegetables. 3 The one who eats must not despise the one who does not eat, and the one who does not eat must not judge the one who eats, because God has accepted him. 4 Who are you, who passes judgment on the domestic slave belonging to someone else? To his own master he stands or falls, and he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand. 5 One person prefers one day over another day, and another person regards every day alike. Each one must be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 The one who is intent on the day is intent on it for the Lord, and the one who eats eats for the Lord, because he is thankful to God, and the one who does not eat does not eat for the Lord, and he is thankful to God. 7 For none of us lives for himself and none dies for himself. 8 For if we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord. Th…”

Ps 23.1-6 “1 Yahweh is my shepherd; I will not lack for anything. 2 In grassy pastures he makes me lie down; by quiet waters he leads me. 3 He restores my life. He leads me in correct paths for the sake of his name. 4 Even when I walk in a dark valley, I fear no evil because you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare before me a table in the presence of my oppressors. You anoint my head with oil; my cup is overflowing. 6 Surely goodness and loyal love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will stay in the house of Yahweh for a very long time.”

Titus 1.9-11 “9 holding fast to the faithful message according to the teaching, in order that he may be able both to exhort with sound instruction and to reprove those who speak against it. 10 For there are many rebellious people, idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, 11 whom it is necessary to silence, whoever are ruining whole families by teaching things which must not be taught for the sake of dishonest gain.”

1 cor 10.13 “13 Temptation has not come upon you except what is common to humanity. But God is faithful, who will not permit you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but will also make a way out together with the temptation, so that you may be able to endure it.”

2 Tim 3.6-7 “6 For from these are those who slip into houses and captivate foolish women loaded down with sins, led by various kinds of desires, 7 always learning and never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.”

Titus 2.11-12 “11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people, 12 training us in order that, denying impiety and worldly desires, we may live self-controlled and righteously and godly in the present age,”

We Have to Be aware of the control factor in our lives, Just like a lion how he sets his position as a lion and he lets the pride know as such. But the lionesses don”t in any means control the lion and challenge his position. There is no reason for a wife to try to set her position as a lion and a lionesses at the same time, and the husband need not try to be over demanding and controlling setting there position. God has set it in a mans heart what he is to do and act in scripture as well as what a woman is to do as well.
