'Not To Cover It Up.'
James 3:14.

If we are carrying bitter jealousy it can ruin our health and our relationships! We really need to get rid of it! Bitter jealousy is the main cause of selfish ambition. We cannot justify bitter jealousy - simply put, it is sin! We can save ourselves a lot of health problems if we forsake bitter jealousy.
