WHAT IS LOVE...? My favorite book about love says much about it in 1st Corinthians Chapter 13. Love is..
- (verse 4)
- is longsuffering (i.e. tolerant, patient)
- is kind
- is free of jealousy, envy and pride
- (verse 5)
- does not display unseemly behavior
- is unselfish
- is not touchy, fretful or resentful
- takes no account of the evil done to it [outwardly ignores a suffered wrong]
- (verse 6)
- hates evil
- is associated with honesty
- (verse 7)
- protects
- trusts [implying faith in God and trusting in righteousness]
- hopes
- perseveres
- (verse 8)
- triumphs
- (verse 13)
- is greater than either faith or hope
