1Cor. 13:3 If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, {3 Some early manuscripts } but have not love, I gain nothing. Paul continues in his example to the Corinthians because they were faced with every kind of religious ritual and sacrifice ever thought up by carnal man. One of those was for some to offer themselves to be burned as a sacrifice and martyrdom. Some religious people thought it was admirable, but before they would complete act of suicide, they would be haughty and proud of what they were planning to do. They would ignore the real love that God expects us to demonstrate to everyone we come in contact with. I am sure when they woke up in Hades that they must have thought, how stupid of me. I gain nothing by doing anything if I do not love. Today, I love you. Pastor
