Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
All Commentaries on Galatians 5:26 Go To Galatians 5
Ambrosiaster

What he is saying is that if we live well and honestly we should also express this in good conduct. This is what it is to live in the Spirit: to have an unblemished life. We walk in the Spirit if we study peace. For this is what engenders love. It is, on the other hand, empty glory to seek a victory where there is no prize, so that someone would end up having only a zeal for strife and spiritual competition. These things tend toward discord and wrangling.
