Corinthians 13: 4-8

Sunday, January 28, 2007

People like to quote this passage from Corinthians 13, but they always conveniently quote only verses 4 to 7:

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.


There is, however, a verse 8:

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.


Love, it seems, makes you stupid. I can attest to that.
