I CORINTHIANS - CHAPTER 13

I Corinthians 13:1 says, "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal." "Men" means "a human being, whether male or female." "Charity" means "love, affection, good will, benevolence, brotherly love." "Tongues of men and angels" means "having a knowledge of other languages, as the angels understand all languages of the world." This is to say you may have a good working knowledge of our Father's Word; a good teacher, however if you do not possessive "love" when sharing seeds of truth, what you say or what you teach will have no more affect than the tinkling sounds of wind chimes. They go in one ear and out of the other.

I Corinthians 13:2 says, "And though I have [the gift of] prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing." You may possess many "gifts" of Father God, having faith in our Father, understanding the events that shall consummate the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age since you have studied, receiving the blessings of the Father God's Holy Spirit which give that increase of knowledge, if you do not have love for the "souls" of all people of this world, the gifts you possess are worthless since no one is listening.

I Corinthians 13:3 says, "And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing." If you give all that you have to help the poor and are under the "Consuming Fire {love} of Father God", if you have no love for the souls of humankind, what you give and that veil of protection means nothing since "Father God is Love." Charity begins at home which means within your own spiritual self. The very elect are expected to have compassion, demonstrate kindness, patience and care toward Father's children lost in the doctrines and traditions of men, as well as lost within the carnal things of the flesh.

I Corinthians 13:4 says, "Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up," Love requires great patience and goodwill, and is void of foolish jealousy. "Vaunteth" means "to boast one's self." Love does not require you to pretend to be someone you are not, full of yourself. Therefore, any praise that comes your way is not for you, it is for our Father God and Christ Jesus since the very elect are servants who plant seeds of truth for souls to seek, ask and knock of our Father God Almighty.

I Corinthians 13:5 says, "Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;" When sharing the truth of our Father's Word, love is never rude, it extends compassion with patience to the unlearned without bringing about anger and does not reckon with those things that are wicked, troublesome or destructive. It is necessary to love as Christ Jesus loves all of His children. Our Lord taught the way, path and truth that leads to Eternal Life. Our Lord, because of great love, sacrificed His "Perfect Self" on that cross at Calvary. Our Father God Almighty gave to His children "the greatest love of all when He took the Flesh through Christ Jesus, born from above to walk with mankind, and layed down His life for His children. Therefore, if you do not extend love while sharing Father's Truths, no one will listen to you and you have no purpose, you are worthless.

I Corinthians 13:6 says, "Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;" When you have love within yourself, you find no joy, no pleasure in seeing injustice toward anyone. Rather, rejoice in sharing the truth of our Father's Word, which is true christianity, and witnessing eyes opening and ears hearing with understanding "thus saith our LORD." Understanding "truth {Father's Word}" opens the path for a Christ-like walk, wherein there is the blessings of a conscious, knowledge, wisdom and gifts from Father God wherein others become a servant to continue planting seeds of truth throughout the whole earth.

I Corinthians 13:7 says, "Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things." When there is true love, there is hope; it believes, it endures; faith is not shaken under misfortunes, trials and tribulations, rather is stands on the "Rock" of our "Foundation, who is Christ Jesus."

I Corinthians 13:8 says, "Charity never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall fail; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall vanish away." True love, "Father God being Love", will always be with us. However prophecies, languages and knowledge of this Earth Age, shall all pass away when our Lord Jesus Christ returns as "King of kings and Lord of lords." Our "Living Word, Christ Jesus" will be with us through the Millennial Kingdom teaching and our "Father God will return to His children", wherein there will be a new Heaven and a new Jerusalem and our "LORD with be the Temple thereof."

I Corinthians 13:9 says, "For we know in part, and we prophesy in part." While we are in these flesh bodies, we do not know all things of our Father's Word. We know through continuous faithful study, prayer and love that our Father will bless with the gifts He wants each of His children to have as His servants, working in the field, which is the world, being a part of His Perfect Plan which draws His children lost in the earthly matters to His outstretched arms.

I Corinthians 13:10 says, "But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away." "Christ Jesus is our Perfect One" and when that Seventh Trumpet sounds, our Lord shall return to this earth, the Second Advent, as "King of kings and Lord of lords." These flesh bodies will be shed as all living souls take on their spiritual bodies. All of those teachings of the "Holy Bible" that were not understood will now be unveiled and all will have total recall, going back to the First or Spiritual Earth Age. All of the mysteries will unfold within the minds of Father's children.

I Corinthians 13:11 says, "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things." In the beginning of understanding Father's Word, there is immaturity in the manner in which Father's Word is communicated since you are a new student to true Biblical teachings. However, as you study, praying, asking for the increase of understanding, both male and female {man having no gender}, demonstrating love and patience as Christ Jesus does, Father God will reveal the mysteries of His Word. This is true christianity; walking a Christ-like path. Accepting salvation and being baptized is the "milk" of Father's Word. Once this blessing is bestowed upon you, it is now time to seek the understanding of the mysteries of our Father, the greatest being satan cast to this earth as the first/false christ. Ask, seek and knock, studying to show yourself approved which shows Father God how much you love Him and His Beloved Son. Repent of your sins freeing yourself from the bondage of the flesh, love Father God and Christ Jesus first of all, then love yourself and the souls of Father's children since all these things are a part of your christian walk.

I Corinthians 13:12 says, "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." If a glass is darkened, you cannot see what is on the other side clearly and this is how it is for mankind within our flesh bodies. However, when we are changed to our spiritual bodies, that darkened glass is removed and we will clearly see and hear our Father's Word, who is Christ Jesus, face to face, with understanding. Until that time, Father God's love so great for all of His children, when you study to show yourself approved, praying for that increase of understanding, our LORD will give you what is required when you are faithful. It will keep you from the deception of satan as the anti-christ when you give Father God the time He deserves, studying to show yourself approved, receiving blessings from our LORD for loving Him that much.

I Corinthians 13:13 says, "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these [is] charity." Faith and hope are necessary within your christian walk, however "charity", which is "love", is a total necessity, especially when you are a teacher of our Father's Word. Remember, "Father God is Love" and He gave to His children the "greatest love of all through Christ Jesus." Love is the greatest gift since within it demonstrates faith, charity, trust, patience, understanding, all the emotions of Father God. If you want to please Almighty God, study His Word, understand His Truths through faithfulness and prayer which brings about a conscious, salvation, repentance, understanding and wisdom, and most of all pure "Love, Love, Love!~
