1. Where do quarrels and conflicts among you come from? Don’t they come from this, namely your passions that battle within your body parts?
2. You crave and have not. You murder and you envy, yet you cannot get it. You fight and you wage war. You do not have because you do not ask.
3. You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives so you may spend it on your passions.
4. You adulteresses! Don’t you know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
