1 Cor 13

1 Corinthians 13 (KJV)...Paul filled with the HOLYSPIRT...speaking...



13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.



2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.



3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.



4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,



5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;



6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;



7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.



8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.



9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.



10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.



11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.



12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.



13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; [[[ but the greatest of these is charity. ]]]...



*** Carity ~ Agape ~ LOVE ***

1) affection, good will, love, benevolence, brotherly love

I was speaking to a friend on this recently, when he was telling me what love is. I said read I Cor..13 this is what God says love is. And, many people do not know the meaning of real love.

Even more so some would tell you God who is love is not bound to this truth, because he is sovereign.



I say because he is sovereign he is all this and more.

Pauls main point in this chapter is the LOVE...not that which fails or falls or ceases...it is what we are to Strive for in Christ Jesus...and the Evidence of HIS Spirit is LOVE...the LOVE of one another...our brothers and sisters in and of Christ Jesus...xo

Howdy Jude,

If you replace the word "love" in 1 Corinthians 13, with "Christ", the passage on love makes perfect sense. It is my own personal belief that "love" is not something anyone can do. Instead, I believe it's a "condition". The condition of the Spirit and presence of Christ dwelling in someone, who simply is Love.
