JEALOUSY.

"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show out of his fine conduct his works with a meekness that belongs to wisdom." "'But if you are harbouring bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, consider whether your claims are not false, and a defiance of the truth... For with jealousy and ambition come disorder and evil of every kind."  (James 3:13 NWT & 3:14,16 NEB).

"Can you not see that while there is jealousy (1) and strife among you, you are living on the purely human level of your lower nature?"  (1 Cor 3:3 NEB).

"Anyone can see the kind of behaviour that belongs to the lower nature: ...envy ...jealousies ...and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who behave in such ways will never inherit the Kingdom of God."  (From Gal 5:19-21 NEB).

"…If anyone is teaching otherwise, and will not give his mind to wholesome precepts    I  mean  those of our Lord Jesus Christ    and to good religious teaching, I call him a pompous ignoramus. He is morbidly keen on mere verbal questions and quibbles, which give rise to jealousy... base suspicions, and endless wrangles:  all typical of men who have let their reasoning become atrophied (2) and have lost grip of the truth."  (From 1 Tim 6:3-5 NEB).

"Then away with all malice and deceit, away with all pretence and jealousy and recrimination of every kind!" "Form a longing for... the word, that through it you may grow to salvation."  (From 1 Peter 2:1,2 NEB & NWT).
