Now I know in part then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.ġ3 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three but the greatest of these is love. Gods love is unconditional, in a sense, that love is His nature (1 John 4:8, Deuteronomy 7:9) hence there is never a moment when God does not love. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. Note: The term unconditional love is not found in Scripture none of the church fathers ever used the term nor did any other Christian author before the. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 3 John 1:4 The man called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all living. 1 Peter 4:8 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. As for prophecies, they will pass away as for tongues, they will cease as for knowledge, it will pass away. Above all, maintain an intense love for each other, since love covers a multitude of sins. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.Ĩ Love never ends. The concept of unconditional love is one that is central to the Christian faith and is beautifully reflected in the Bible. It does not insist on its own way it is not irritable or resentful 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
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.Ĥ Love is patient and kind love does not envy or boast it is not arrogant 5 or rude. 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.
13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
