Philippians 2:3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or empty pride, but in humility consider others more important than yourselves.
James 3:14 But if you harbor bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast in it or deny the truth.
James 4:1–3 What causes conflicts and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from the passions at war within you? / You crave what you do not have; you kill and covet, but are unable to obtain it. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask. / And when you do ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may squander it on your pleasures.
James 3:16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every evil practice.
1 John 4:19–21 We love because He first loved us. / If anyone says, “I love God,” but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. / And we have this commandment from Him: Whoever loves God must love his brother as well.
