We see many believers who have not grown past infancy because their constant companions are superficial people, and often ungodly family members.
When we compare ourselves with ourselves, we will not see what needs to change, we will seem better than those we spend time with.
However if we compare ourselves with Christ and His standards then we see continual need for growth. We find there is nothing to be proud of in us.
2 Corinthians 10:12 - "For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise."
