Diminishing the Successes of Others

To diminish the successes of others, demeaning and mocking them out of jealousy to destroy their joy is devilish.

Sharing one another's joys and sorrows is God's design for believers in Christ.

Love is about caring about the hopes, desires and welfare of others. Where there is love there is peace.

Romans 12:15
"15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep."

1 John 3:13-15 " 14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. The one who does not love remains in death.
15 Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that eternal life does not reside in a murderer.…"

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
"4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant,
5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,
6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
