THE GIFT OF LOVE (1 Cor. 13:1-7)

Paul describes the gift of love as the more excellent way.  But this kind of love is more than an emotion.  It is an act of will.  Love involves the heart, the mind, and the will.  Love is a fruit of the Holy Spirit.  Although we are to covet earnestly the best gifts, they are to be exercised in love, and only the Spirit of God can do that.  Love is the thing that needs to be added to every gift of the Spirit.  Without love your gift is worthless.  Paul describes this wonderful gift in a verse-by-verse study of 1 Corinthians 13:1-7.  Listen to how the Word of God describes agape love and be blessed.
