The central issue of Christianity is the cross, for it was upon the cross that Jesus died. All sin of all people, from Adam to the last person to pass through a birth canal was placed on the heart and shoulders of the Lamb of God. What was it that motivated Jesus to do such a thing?

The absence of these is explained by two main things: 1) Their fundamental commitment to the truth, born of humility; 2) Their willingness to give everything they have been given, including their lives, in service to Christ. Where these things are present, jealousy cannot be.

Believers must live less under the influence of remaining carnality and more through the influence of the Holy Spirit. May it never be that we are carnal Christians or a carnal church! Such believers may know the glorious things the Spirit has revealed concerning salvation, but do not fully embrace them. So the carnal Christian is out of sync with the amazing grace of Christ. The carnal Christian life is a tragic Christian life. It is imperative that we avoid carnality through spiritual growth.
