'Better' in the Bible
Some, it is true, are [actually] preaching Christ out of envy and rivalry [toward me—for no better reason than a competitive spirit or misguided ambition], but others out of goodwill and a loyal spirit [toward me].
For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
