1 | You are saying that our command to...? | John 13:34 | Xerxes | 128228 | ||
Whoa Steve, your quote of 1 Cor 13:1-3 is not being stated contextually, and I'm certain you know it. If he speaks in the tongues of men and of angels, if he has prophetic powers and understands all mysteries and all knowledge, if he has all faith so as to remove mountains, if he gives away all that he has, if he delivers up his body to burned ... "and has not love, then he is nothing!" Unless I'm misunderstanding the nature of your post, it seems you are disputing the inclusive superiority of love with a passage that is directly speaking to the superiority of love over everything else, leaving out the pertinent half of each passage that actually makes Stultis' point ... that everything we do should be done for love, and without love it's pointless, for we can be regular church goers, tongue speakers, prophets, great preachers, whole paycheck givers ... and if we don't have love, it's all for naught because we are nothing without it. I think Stultis makes a valid point. Xerxes |

Hello Xerxes, I believe you misunderstood my post. Stultis asked what things a Christian could do without the motivation of love. I simply gave him the list recorded by the apostle Paul as what he himself could do without the motivation of love. In both great and small things, we can motivated by selfishness instead of love.

Ahhhh, okay. Gotcha Steve. Thanks for clarifying that. I hope I wasn't unintentionally harsh. I know I can be sometimes without meaning to be. Xerxes |
