1 WHAT LEADS to strife (discord and feuds) and how do conflicts (quarrels and fightings) originate among you? Do they not arise from your sensual desires that are ever warring in your bodily members? 2 You are jealous and covet and your desires go unfulfilled; you become murderers. You burn with envy and anger and are not able to obtain , so you fight and war. You do not have, because you do not ask.
