If I speak human or angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.If I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing.And if I give away all my possessions, and if I give over my body in order to boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not envy, is not boastful, is not arrogant,is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not irritable, and does not keep a record of wrongs.Love finds no joy in unrighteousness but rejoices in the truth.It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end.For we know in part, and we prophesy in part,but when the perfect comes, the partial will come to an end.When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put aside childish things.For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, as I am fully known.Now these three remain: faith, hope, and love— but the greatest of these is love.Pursue love and desire spiritual gifts, and especially that you may prophesy.

So then, my brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.

More than that, I also consider everything to be a loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. Because of him I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them as dung, so that I may gain Christ

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was approved as a righteous man, because God approved his gifts, and even though he is dead, he still speaks through his faith.

Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that“ we all have knowledge.” Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

but one thing is necessary. Mary has made the right choice, and it will not be taken away from her.”
