Envy

WILLIAM W. HEMMANS III · Friday, January 13th 2006 at 4:18PM · 233 views
A feeling of resentment and jealousy toward another person because of his possesions or good qualities. James lnked envy with self-seeking (James 3:14, 16; selfish ambition, RSV). Christians are warned to guard against the sin of envy (Rom 13:13; 1 Peter 2:1).

Question, "What did Abel do to Cain?* Look it up in the book of Genesis.

I can relate to this very well. It is a bad spirit to fight off especially when this is not of your character. I found out as the enemy looking into my future and "trying" ( they never win even when it seems like it) to ruin you. The enemy usually use something that you never experienced before.

Hey Candice, once again You are a very deep sistah, what can I add to this but appreciations for the added richness Your comments add to this blog.
On the sins of envy and jealousy people can write on this for a lifetime as "God" has done throughout the Bible.
Most people do not realize the seriousness of these issues that are detrimental and common to all trying to Aspire in life. But people deal with everyday....
Blessings Sis
