Do you really understand the seriousness of envy? Since it’s the Tenth Commandment, is it somehow less than the others? If you see your neighbor driving a new car and you wish you had one like it, is that what the Bible is speaking of when it talks about the destructiveness of envy? How does envy impact the world, the church, and your personal life?
Of all the vices of man, there is one that its perpetrators never enjoy and rarely ever confess. This opinion was stated by Os Guiness in his book, Steering Through Chaos.When I read it, I wondered why, then, does anyone do this sin? But when I think about it, this sin is one that man does not exactly do.
