Charity » The attributes of charity
NOW concerning the things sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.
Verse Concepts
Love is long-suffering, is kind; love envieth not; love is no vain boaster, is not inflated [with pride], doth not act unseemly, seeketh not her own advantage, is not passionate, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth in the truth; read more.
beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Love never faileth: but if there be prophetic gifts, they shall be no more; if tongues, they shall cease; if science, it shall vanish away. For we know partially, and prophesy partially. But when that which is perfect cometh, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I thought as a child, I reasoned as a child: but when I grew a man, I put away childish things. For now we see by reflected light, indistinctly; but then face to face: now I know partially; but then shall I know even as I am known. But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greater of these is love.

But the end of all things is near: be ye therefore sober-minded, and vigilant in prayers. But above all things have fervent love towards each other: for love will conceal a multitude of faults. Exercise hospitality one towards another without grudgings.
