Envy is a horrible sin. It says, "You have something I want, therefore, I don't want you to have it." It is the source of conflict in relationships and it destroys unity in the church. Jesus' brother, James, considered it one of the most destructive of all sins relationally. He described it as "bitter envy".
Are there people who have something you want and you don't like them simply because of what they have? Do you secretly want everyone to be "less" than you? When good things happen to people you envy are you angry?
Envy is a horrible killer! It was the motivation for crucifying the perfect man. Get rid of envy from your life.
