Summary

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with Whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.”
The modern world would have us believe that jealousy is a purely negative matter — we all know the tropes. Scripture teaches something entirely different. God tells us that one of His names is Jealous. To be jealous of the things that God has given us is not only not sin, but an affirmative duty for every Christian. You must be jealous of your wife, jealous of your children, jealous of your property, and jealous of every other good and perfect gift that has come down from the Father above.
To fail to be jealous is, in fact, to sin.

| 0:07.0 | The Welcome to the Stone Choir podcast. I am Corey J. Mahler. And I'm still, whoa. |
| 0:45.1 | On today's Stone Quire, we're going to be discussing jealousy. Before we get into the meat of the episode, just a couple brief minutes of housekeeping. First, I apologize that we didn't |
| 0:55.4 | have an episode last week. We had originally planned last week to do an episode on inheritance, |
| 1:01.4 | and towards the end of preparing for that, as I was thinking of my remarks to introduce one |
| 1:07.8 | of the things necessary for inheritance, which was jealousy. |
| 1:15.6 | My first 15-minute preamble got to be 30 and 35 and 40 minutes, and I started talking to Corey about, and we realized there's an entire episode there |
| 1:19.7 | just about jealousy, and it's actually really important to do it before the inheritance |
| 1:23.9 | one. |
| 1:24.4 | So we try to get an episode out every week, but at the same time, when we |
| 1:29.2 | lay down an episode, we're putting something in a library. That's really how we see it, because it's how |
| 1:33.8 | almost everyone ends up listening to our episodes. We love that people are listening live, |
| 1:39.8 | but most of the people who listen to this episode won't be listening to it the day after we recorded. |
| 1:45.9 | They'll be listening to it months or years later. |
| 1:48.0 | So as a result, it's more important for us to have each episode be deserving of being in that library than hitting an arbitrary schedule. |
| 1:56.3 | So I apologize for the recent unreliability. |
| 1:59.2 | It's not us being flaky. It's just that sometimes |
| 2:02.6 | doing it right means putting it off a little bit. So this week is jealousy and next week will be |
| 2:07.2 | about inheritance. Second brief housekeeping item, the challenge coins. We mentioned those a few |
| 2:13.7 | weeks ago and then haven't said anything, haven't said anything, A, because there's no news, |
| 2:17.7 | and B, because I don't want to clutter up these library episodes with kind of housekeeping things |
| 2:22.7 | that aren't relevant. Sorry that we don't have any new news. Corey is waiting for the proof to come |
