B5-God Is In His Word
Paul himself makes that statement in I Cor.13: 3 it tells us that you could give without loving. Verse 3 “Though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.”
He says that love is sacrificial. You cannot love without being sacrificial and giving. Yet you could be giving and not loving. They are not the same thing. It is interesting that it says here you could take everything that you have of your possession and you could give them all away and if you don’t have love, the bible says, there is no profit. There is no gain. If you study very carefully, of course if you sell everything you have and you give to somebody else, somebody else did profit. But he is talking about the one giving. There is no profit in us. Our nature has not been changed. So we could give without loving but could never love without giving. Without wanting to sacrifice of our being. So there is Almighty God above looks down upon His planet earth and here we are living our own selfish life. The root of sin is self. The word ‘SIN’, if you take away the S, take away the N, you have the I in the middle. All sins arise from selfishness and from a selfish nature. The sin nature. Only when that sin nature dies and when that sin nature is removed by that Christ life we cannot fully understand the love of God.
