『心靈的每一個仇敵都是從「虧欠」這個理念得著動力的。罪疚說：「我對你有虧欠。」憤怒則受到「你虧欠我」這個意念的驅使。貪婪的存在是因為認定我對自己有所虧欠。而心靈的第四個仇敵也是如此。 嫉妒。
嫉妒說：「上帝虧欠我。」』- 安迪．史坦利
「你們中間的爭戰鬥毆是從哪裏來的呢？不是從你們百體中戰鬥之私慾來的嗎？ 你們貪戀，還是得不着；你們殺害嫉妒，又鬥毆爭戰，也不能得。你們得不着，是因為你們不求。 你們求也得不着，是因為你們妄求，要浪費在你們的宴樂中。」- 雅各書 4:1-3
「但各人被試探，乃是被自己的私慾牽引誘惑的。 私慾既懷了胎，就生出罪來；罪既長成，就生出死來。」- 雅各書 1:14-15
「親愛的弟兄啊，你們是客旅，是寄居的。我勸你們要禁戒肉體的私慾；這私慾是與靈魂爭戰的。」- 彼得前書 2:11
「所以，你們既除去一切的惡毒 、詭詐，並假善、嫉妒，和一切毀謗的話，就要愛慕那純淨的靈奶，像才生的嬰孩愛慕奶一樣，叫你們因此漸長，以致得救。」- 彼得前書 2:1-2
“Each of the enemies of the heart is energized by the idea that somebody owes something. Guilt says, “I owe you.” Anger is fueled by the notion that you owe me. Greed is kept alive by the assumption that I owe me. This fourth heart issue is no differently. Jealousy. Jealousy says, “God owes me.”” - Andy Stanley
“What is causing the quarrels and fights among you? Don’t they come from the evil desires at war within you? You want what you don’t have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous of what others have, but you can’t get it, so you fight and wage war to take it away from them. Yet you don’t have what you want because you don’t ask God for it. And even when you ask, you don’t get it because your motives are all wrong—you want only what will give you pleasure.”
James 4:1-3 NLT
“Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.”
James 1:14-15 NLT
「Dear friends, I warn you as “temporary residents and foreigners” to keep away from worldly desires that wage war against your very souls.」
1 Peter 2:11 NLT
「So get rid of all evil behavior. Be done with all deceit, hypocrisy, jealousy, and all unkind speech. Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment,」
1 Peter 2:1-2 NLT
