“But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.”
James 3:14 (KJV)
Commentary on James 3:14
But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. If you harbor bitter jealousy (zēlon pikron, ζῆλον πικρόν) and selfish ambition (eritheian, ἐριθείαν), do not boast or lie against the truth. Such inner attitudes contradict claims to wisdom.Reformed examination calls believers to assess motives. James exposes ministry jealousy and factionalism masquerading as zeal.
