February 17: God’s Love Can Bear Anything
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
The Greatest Gift
1Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2And 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, but have not love, I am nothing. 3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [a]to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
Note: in verse 3, it says "and though I give my body to be burned" makes me wonder if they are talking about cremation. If you know the answer, please share.
4Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; 5does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil; 6does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. (Note: I want to believe that these are attributes/characteristics of Jesus Christ).
8Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part. (Note: this last statement is to show that man does not know everything). 10But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
Note: "that which is perfect" is referring to Jesus. And I keep ignoring the second half of that sentence, for days now, and it won't go away. I am going to put it all together here: "But when that which is perfect (Jesus) has come (to you, to a situation, to a condition, to a place, to a family, to a relationship, to anything, etc.), then that which is in part (that which is incomplete) will be done away (will no longer be incomplete). Praise the Lord Almighty! This is when that Christian, that believer, THAT WHATEVER: situation, condition, etc., becomes this: Colossians 2:10 "And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: (these guys a bad, they are the ones that make life difficult for humans:. Praise the Lord, thank You Yeshua/Jesus/Isa. Hallelujah! So we must invite Jesus Christ into everything, including and especially that which is incomplete.
11When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. . 12For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

The Full Armor of God
ReplyDelete10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
