Bible Question:
Hi everyone, I have to read something for a wedding and I need to sum it up at the end, but I don't really know how to sum it up. Here is what I have to read: A reading from the first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians Brothers and Sisters: Strive eagerly for the greatest spiritual gifts. But I shall show you a still more excellent way. If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. The word of the Lord. I want to be able to explain what that means to a couple or something like that...Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! in advance |

Genesis 2:22-25 is better ... it shows one is to leave, cleave and weave. -Leave parents and they are to let go, including control and authority -Cleave - super glue, God doesn't want any divorce (the context of the NT passages bears that out). -Weave - includes producing chidren Searcher |
