Please help me with scriptural support for the following:
> “Be careful not to measure your holiness "salvation" by other people's
> sins.” - Martin Luther
In the same way, if we measure God's love by worldly things and not by Heavenly blessings, we are deceiving ourselves because we have already received the Gospel but Heaven is yet to come
Salvation and God's love is not correlated to fame, wealth, popularity or any other measure that the world uses to measure success. Remember that our spirits are not of this world, and so spiritual success will not look like worldly success.

> Why would we run for a crown that will perish with time, when we're
