- Lord Replace My Critical Attitude: With Love
1 Corinthians 13:1-8a If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. [2] 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. [3] If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. [4] Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant [5] or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
1 Corinthians 13:1-8a [6] it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. [7] Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. [8] Love never ends. (1 Corinthians 13:1-8a ESV)
1 Corinthians 13:1-8a 1. Eloquent Speech Without Love is Annoying (vs 2) 1I. Truth Without Love Is Brutality (vs 2) 1II. Sacrifice Without Love Is Worthless (3)
