Bible Study About competition

Jesus tells us that to be first, we should be last and the servant of all(Mark 9:35).
Paul tells us “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem the other better than himself. Look not every man to his own things, but every man also to the things of others†(Phil 2:3-4). He tells us to be devoted to one another in brotherly love and honor others above our selves (Gal. 6:4). He also tells us to keep away from strife (Phi.2: 3; Rom. 13:13; 1Cor. 3:3; Gal 5:20, 21); which is opposing, battling or competing with others.
 
This is indeed milk doctrine. We are still in the womb actually with this one.

But that is not an offense to you. This is actually a good thing because this basic principle is often unheeded by millions of believers (me included).

Something so basic and yet something so easily overlooked.
