James 3:14-18
But if you have bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t brag and deny the truth.Such wisdom does not come from above but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.For where envy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every kind of evil.But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peace-loving, gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, without favoritism and hypocrisy.And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who cultivate peace.

1 Corinthians 3 3-1 Corinthians 3 5
because you are still fleshly. For since there is envy and strife among you, are you not fleshly and living like unbelievers?For whenever someone says,“ I’m with Paul,” and another,“ I’m with Apollos,” are you not unspiritual people?What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? They are servants through whom you believed, and each has the role the Lord has given.

The Lamb of God!”
