24Keep in mind that we who belong to Jesus Christ have already experienced crucifixion. For everything connected with our self-lifeu was put to death on the cross and crucified with Messiah. 25If the Spirit is the source of our life, we must also allow the Spirit to direct every aspect of our lives. 26So may we never be arrogant, or look down on another, for each of us is an original. We must forsake all jealousy that diminishes the value of others.v
