1 Cor 13 Love is always patient, kind, never jealous, boastful, or conceited, never rude or selfish. Love doesn’t take offense, never resentful and takes no pleasure in sin, but delights in the truth, Charity (love) never fails. 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. The greatest of faith, hope, and charity is charity (love). 1 John 4:7-8 God is love (Charity). 1 Thes 4:8 He that dispiseth, dispiseith not man but God, who hath given us his Holy Spirit.
