1 Corinthians 13:1-3

“If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.”

Question:

Paul begins this passage with a stark contrast between what the world considers love and the love of God. Ultimately, what he is saying in these verses is that if you live your life in a way that the world would deem as a “loving” or “good” person but fail to live with the love of God, everything you do has no eternal or heavenly value. What is the love of God to you?
