Karena ada sukacita yang salah maka ada sukacita yang benar. Contohnya: sukacita yang benar bukan hanya panjang umur tapi hidup yang kekal, sementara suka cita yang salah hanya mempedulikan panjang umur. Suka cita yang benar mengutamakan harta di surga dengan memanfaatkan harta di dunia, sukacita yang salah hanya mengejar harta di dunia, sukacita yang benar adalah berkenan di hadapan Tuhan, sukacita yang salah hanya mempedulikan untuk dikenal manusia, Milikilah sukacita yang benar!
