It is all about LOVE!! Part 1

I Corinthians 13:1

Though I speak with men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.

It is a matter of love. Love matters. Love is the emotion of unconditional partiality, which is core to Christianity. Because God so loved the world (John 3:16) we know love is also undeserving and often unreciprocated. As believers we must be careful that we don't model our love after the world, but Christ. 

1 Corinthians 13:1, Paul opens up this chapter by putting emphasis on how we speak as it relates to love. Paul reminds us that our communication whether it be of men, the language you and I speak on a daily basis or of angels, the things of God or the Word of God. Paul says if we don't do it in charity (love) we become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal. In other words Paul is identifying us as pieces of band. Sounding brass and tinkling cymbals are pieces of or musical instruments that make a noise. Are you making a whole lot of noise?

Paul suggests that it is not a good sound, when we don't speak in love. The question I want to raise to you as a believer. Are you speaking in love? Are your words offensive? Do you pay attention to the words that come out of your mouth? My Christian friend, I challenge you today to make sure that you season your words with love. Be mindful, that it is easy for people to take offense when words don't come out exactly like we want them. If we speak with love, that is the God kind of love (Agape) we can never go wrong.

God is love and love is of God. Watch how you speak.
